Alberta is the new 'weakest link' in the Confederation chain

Why, it's Provincial avatars in The Weakest Link

The US, and Trump in particular, don't give a crap about Québec. It's left of centre, and full of 'surrender monkeys'. They're too European, too French, too socialist. 

The Province the US will target instead is Alberta.

Their population is already right of centre. Premier Danielle Smith recently sent a list of demands to the Prime Minister, or she'll put forward a referendum to separate from Canada. According to some reports, she also asked the US to postpone the tariffs to help get Poillievre elected first. 

Uhoh

Right now,  Alberta produces a huge amount of oil, which the US wants. Canada is taking some of the oil revenue and using it to subsidize Québec, to keep confederation together. 

If the US offers Alberta a sweet deal, the Maple Maga may just jump at the chance. 

Confederation would unravel after that. 

That'll probably be how Trump will ultimately try to destabilize and annex Canada: an Alberta wedge.

The rest of us will be easy targets after that.
