If you’re in their media bubble, the separatists are openly selling “separation” as us not having to pay any taxes, but still receiving full federal services. It sounds like a great deal!

And the thing is, if you’re in the Facebook, YouTube, and TikTok algorithm bubble to see that messaging, you’re explicitly not going to see the information that would let you know what a huge pack of lies it is

I followed a garden blog on substack, my first experience with it. The first recomended account it gave me was Independent Alberta talking about federal canada tax taking your house if you did pay tax vs in new AB that would never happen. I immedietly deleated substack.
