Isn’t inciting an insurrection in another country an act of war too? Hard to keep track of what are laws and what are just suggestions now.
High treason
46 (1) Every one commits high treason who, in Canada,
(a) kills or attempts to kill Her Majesty, or does her any bodily harm tending to death or destruction, maims or wounds her, or imprisons or restrains her;
(b) levies war against Canada or does any act preparatory thereto; or
© assists an enemy at war with Canada, or any armed forces against whom Canadian Forces are engaged in hostilities, whether or not a state of war exists between Canada and the country whose forces they are.
Treason
(2) Every one commits treason who, in Canada,
(a) uses force or violence for the purpose of overthrowing the government of Canada or a province;
(b) without lawful authority, communicates or makes available to an agent of a state other than Canada, military or scientific information or any sketch, plan, model, article, note or document of a military or scientific character that he knows or ought to know may be used by that state for a purpose prejudicial to the safety or defence of Canada;
© conspires with any person to commit high treason or to do anything mentioned in paragraph (a);

So Charles is fair game?
I was going to comment something similar. The law is still worded as “her majesty” when we now have a male monarch?
Do yourself a favor and execute your traitors before they become president
fr. look at your neighbors down south and ask yourselves if this is what you want. pro-tip: you fuckin’ don’t
I absolutely agree. I was just joking about the specific verbiage in that law because it was written for Elizabeth.

Does separation (possibly via a referendum) fall into any of these cases?
Not really, or at least not entirely. Here’s a link that goes into some detail. It basically comes down to: referendums are fine and legal; secession has to be agreed to by the area leaving and the country as a whole; and subgroups of the region seceeding likely have the option to not seceed depending on their legal status. The Supreme Court has already determined that unilateral declarations of independence are unconstitutional in Canada, and I suspect the notwithstanding clause won’t apply, either.
So… not treason?
Whatever the legal definition, this guy should go straight to Yale
How is this not treason? Are you American?
I ask because even the most left leaning of you all keep making light of this shit and it’s actually driving me crazy. I have American coworkers making 51st state jokes and it’s actually making me hate all of you
Did you read the definition of treason? I don’t see where they intersect
yeah that’s treason…
This is fucking terrifying.
We need to deal with these people yesterday.
I know we’re not supposed to judge a book by its cover but this guy looks like the kind of pedo grifter the regime is absolutely packed with
Wonder how much Danielle was getting paid? Time to drain the UCP swamp Alberta.
I say this as an Albertan.
Has any of this been verified?
“We talked about a $500 million transition loan that we would only draw down on as necessary as we work with the U.S. to transition from a province to a country,” said Modry. He also claimed that they discussed a plan to prop up Alberta’s currency where “the U.S. agrees to take every Alberta citizen’s Canadian dollar and then exchange it for one U.S. dollar.”
“Alberta, of course, can provide energy security,” he said. “It can also provide water security, agricultural security, forestry security, metal security, coal security, plus an industrious workforce. So there is tremendous benefit to the U.S., to work with us.”
I wasn’t able to find any 3rd party sources verifying this.
That’s my issue and even after a couple of days no other source had picked up the story.
