I think this is plausibly part of the plan. There are secessionist fringe groups in Alberta that are on-board with MAGA and will collaborate in a secessionist movement, and that movement is likely to get serious right after the federal elections. It will begin with an astroturfed move to deny the legitimacy of the election and to push for Alberta to separate. Saskatchewan will likely be targeted in the same way.
The supporters will be fringe, but it will be pushed by American media like Fox, by X, by the Trump admin, and maybe by Danielle Smith. The goal will be to weaken and divide Canada. Maybe that leads to little green men crossing the border with support of local secessionist groups in future, once enough division has been fostered.
If Alberta decides to collaborate with a hostile invader, I would hope that the blue states would flip the script on them
its an incredibly small number of albertans who think that way, its mainly bots pushing those "trends"
albertans wouldnt allow it.
