This IS the US #invasion, folks, and it is time we call it what it is.
It looks like a #referendum about whether #Albertans want to 'stay in Canada.' But it is actually a Test to see if #Canada will withstand the massively funded propaganda machine that the United States is blasting at #Alberta as a Hail Mary to crack our democracy and steal our oil while their inflation is soaring, bolstered by Russia which used the same tactics on Crimea and the Donbas, Brexit, and the 2016 US election, among many others.
End this madness. A vote to #leave is a vote to stroll directly into the lion's mouth and to weaken one of the world's great and now-leading voices in the still democratic West against the well funded and encroaching forces of autocracy and oligarchy. As much as we all know there are frustrations, things to improve, and better ways to be a country, this foreign power will see to it that none of us get that chance. And they will not lay off their forces of #misinformation and #propaganda until Canadians give them the boot.
No ground based invasion of Canada can be effective, and they know it. They have to 'crack' us first, by invading our airwaves and electronic media with their poison. It worked for Russia after they invaded Crimea then bombarded the Donbas with propaganda well in advance of the tanks. The US and its illiberal allies are hoping with the tarriffs and all the negative ads on Facebook that all they have to do is sit back and wait for us to shoot ourselves in the face. It is a well laid plan.
Fellow #Canadians, my dear neighbours in #Alberta, do not be fooled by the techniques that have tumbled Western democracies around the world, using #Big :Tech infrastructures to direct targeted messaging and change minds. They stole your voter list precisely so that they can target your neighbours with floods of 'content' paid for by those who would topple our country, take your inheritance and your children's hope of prosperity and safety with them to further engorge their pockets. This is Cambridge Analytica on steroids, the preface to the invasion.
It's not just a #vote to #stay--- it's a vote to #RESIST!
