This was always going to be the result. Smith had to change the rules surrounding petitions to allow for fewer signatures to even get this referendum.
I am far more worried about the other 9 questions. I didn't think we hated immigrants here as much as the Republicans down south, nor did I think a majority would approve Smith and her cronies trying to make constitutional changes just because they dislike the Liberal government.
And don't get complacent just because it isn't a big movement. They won't stop. It's a never ending fight and complacency is how the US got so fucked by these assholes.
I support a Federal Relocation Fund where those displaced Albertans can be moved to their natural habitat: a trailer park in Alabama, where they can run and shoot free and not get vaccinated and have kids with their cousins.
It's the first thing that popped into my head —but I was raised near enough to Yoopers that their pronunciation of that lovely country up yonder as "Can'da", so the meter works, too. 🧏🏼♂️
(IIRC, the apostrophe is a half-second almost-grunt there that kinda sharpens the d's dental fricative? Not a linguist.🙇🏼♂️)
See! I think we can admit we’ve hurt each other, and maybe we should put forth a little effort to be better to each other. So if you guys could send a couple of Hockey teams down to burn down the White House again, I think a lot of us down here would really appreciate it.
I don’t get this one. The four guys with the same hats are a group. So you’re saying the Alberta Separatists and Canada are together, and Albertans aren’t with them?

They are still racists, but they are our racists.
Are they? They’ve been entrenched in US propaganda for so long it’s hard to say.
Immigrunts is taking our jerbs and hospitals and pickup trucks.
I’m also concerned that they got voter suppression that looks like a immigrant question to pass.
That quarter of the population that wants to see things burn needs to be firmly rejected.
That quarter of people that actually voted* which is closer to 1/12 of the population (someone else mentioned a 33% turnout of voters).
Don't make that dumbass 'movement' seem bigger than it was.

This. Is. Canada!
Damn, that would have been much better.

I'm American and I don't want them here! Nor do I want a piece of your country, the fuck is wrong with these freaks...
USA as the pit of despair???? ... chef's kiss.
If only you could kick those ones out. There, you separated.
not really with 20%+ voting to separate
also fuck you Americans, your country does not have the right to influence other countries politics
Look shit is fucking shitty enough here. You already sent us Justin Bieber, you gotta keep your racists, we already have enough of them
But it’s your racists that are making our racists more racist!
Can we split the difference and say that Russian bot farms are making all of our racists more racist?
Fair
We also sent Jim Carrey and Jordan Peterson.
