Yeah, sure.
Sounds like a great way to funnel untraceable money, through YouTube views, into a separatist campaign.
Our former ally is an enemy and a threat to our national security.

Somebody is watching the videos and giving these Dutch guys money via YouTube views. It makes me angry that CBC didn’t push a bit harder to try and find out why these Dutch guys thought to start separatist YouTube channels. Why did they think it would make money, particularly since the movement only has a bare few percent support and only in Alberta? And what are their viewership statistics?
CBC only went far enough to say “nothing to see here, just some Dutch guys making untraceable money on something that they have no earthly reason to know about and even less of a reason to suspect would be profitable, because under normal circumstances it absolutely would not be.”
The whole thing stinks like bullshit, and CBC dropped the ball. We are all way too fucking complacent for the magnitude of these problems and the forces driving them.
CBC?
Nah, better question is… Where the fuck are CSIS and CSE? This is a foreign influence campaign that’s an existential threat to Canada – why are CBC journalists the ones taking action, and not our “spy” agencies that are tasked with this sort of shit.
At least CBC picked up the ball, it’s unlikely any of the corporate media will mention this.
