Alberta Separatists Say Trump Regime Offered Them $500,000,000 “Loan” To Break Up Canada Alberta’s separatist circuit is bragging about a half-billion-dollar “transition loan” they say was discussed with Trumpworld in Washington. Seditious if true... Dean Blundell Aug 20 Alberta’s separatist circuit is bragging about a half-billion-dollar “transition loan” they say was discussed with Trumpworld in Washington. *We chase the stories that Main Stream Media won’t, add receipts, and arm you with context you can trust.

Here’s what’s claimed, what’s real, and why Canadians should treat this as foreign interference—not a future. TL;DR - A group of Alberta separatist activists—led by Dennis Modry and backed by a familiar cast of MAGA-adjacent boosters—told a friendly crowd that “senior U.S. officials” discussed a US$500M loan, a par CAD→USD swap for Albertans, and U.S. recognition after an independence vote. - There is no public proof of the loan offer. What is real: a coordinated campaign (events, billboards, Fox hits, Washington trips) to launder a fantasy as inevitability while undermining Canadian sovereignty. It’s a betrayal of Canada’s interests—and textbook foreign interference dressed up as prairie populism. The “$500M Loan” Story They’re Selling At a Rebel News-branded rally in Red Deer, former Alberta Prosperity Project boss Dr. Dennis Modry told the room he met “senior U.S. administrative officials” in Washington in April. According to Modry: A US$500,000,000 “transition loan” was discussed to “move from a province to a country.” The U.S. would exchange Albertans’ Canadian dollars for U.S. dollars at par. After a referendum, the U.S. would recognize Alberta’s sovereignty. “I met the senior U.S. administrative officials just a couple of steps away from the president himself. When we walked into the conference room, the first comment was, ‘We recognize and support Alberta becoming the sovereign nation for the first time.’ “We talked about a $500 million transition loan that we would only draw down on as necessary as we work with the U.S. to transition from a province to a country, and the U.S. agreed to take every Alberta citizen’s Canadian dollar and then exchange it for one U.S. dollar.” - Dr. Dennis Modry (screenshot Desmog.com) Notably absent: any named U.S. officials, documents, emails, calendars, term sheets—nothing. When reporters asked for proof or names, silence. When pressed on dates, Modry floated April 22—still with zero substantiation. My read: this is classic disinfo choreography—grandiose promise, no paperwork, maximum virality. Who’s Pushing It—By Name Let’s be crystal: Dennis Modry – circulating the unverified loan tale from the Red Deer stage. Jeffrey Rath – hyped a Washington delegation on Fox, selling “statehood/sovereignty” meetings with Trump’s people. He’s also had his license to practice law revoked for threatening to murder people. Mitch Sylvestre – APP CEO on the DC roster. Rob Anders and LaVar Payne – ex-CPC MPs attached to the delegation brand-stamped “Commonwealth of Alberta.” David Parker (Take Back Alberta) and Cameron Davies (Alberta Republicans) – part of the event’s separatist ecosystem. Peter Downing – applauding U.S. hardline immigration tactics as a model for an “independent” Alberta. America Fund – the U.S. outfit pumping “51st State” billboards and sponsoring the rally atmospherics. These are not patriots safeguarding Alberta’s future. They’re (in most cases) rejects, victims and in some cases criminals who’ve made shittty choices and are selling a destabilization fantasy that hands leverage to a foreign politician and his donors out of spite. Call it what you will, but I see it as victims betraying Canada’s interests. (And to be explicit: I’m making a political/moral judgment here—not a legal charge.) Why Their Numbers Don’t Add Up (Because Math) Alberta’s economy is roughly C$350+ billion. A US$500M loan is a rounding error—~0.2% of GDP and under 1% of provincial annual spending. “Par conversion” of an entire province’s savings to USD? That’s not a policy; it’s a currency cosplay. To stabilize a brand-new state, you’d need tens of billions, central-bank-level scaffolding, and international agreements. None of that exists. Translation: the money story is theater—designed to sound big, not be real. BUT… Why It Still Feels Plausible (and That’s the Point) If you’re thinking, “This sounds like something Trumpworld would float,” you’re not wrong. The playbook is familiar: Dangle a headline-friendly promise (a “loan,” “recognition,” “par exchange”). Run the victory lap on friendly media to create momentum. Let proxies—non-government activists—do the talking so there’s no official paper trail. Flood the zone with billboards, rallies, and online amplification until the myth hardens into “everybody knows.” Trump desperately wants to annex Canada, and the Trump Regime knows they’re best chance is to appeal to Albertans after Carney’s win. The Legal Reality (Canada) Even if a foreign politician promised recognition tomorrow, Alberta cannot unilaterally secede. The Supreme Court’s 1998 Secession Reference and the Clarity Act bind the process to clear-question, clear-majority standards and negotiations with Ottawa and the provinces. No back-channel loan, billboard, or Fox segment shortcuts the Constitution. Receipts We Do Have A declared “Commonwealth of Alberta” delegation to Washington with the above names—trumpeting meetings in April. A Red Deer rally where the loan tale was told on stage. A U.S. group (America Fund) underwriting 51st-state propaganda in Alberta. Interviews and event footage where the same cast sells the same fantasy. What we don’t have: any document showing a U.S. office proposed, vetted, or could legally deliver a “separatist loan.” You don’t put that stuff on paper or in a deck. You go for a walk with opportunists like Modry, Rath, and Parker and appeal to their nature with money and promise of influence and “One Nation Under God” bullshit with the first two being the most important. This Is Foreign Interference—Act Like It Let’s drop the euphemisms. Foreign political actors and their Canadian surrogates are trying to rewrite Canada’s borders with marketing and disinfo. That doesn’t make them criminal by default; it makes them dangerous and unfit to be anywhere near Alberta’s future. Media: treat the loan story as unverified until you see names and documents. Lawmakers: examine the money flows behind these campaigns. Platforms: label the claim as unverified political content. Canadians: ask every separatist megaphone one question—“Where’s the paperwork?” What Happens Next (and How We Get Proof) I’m filing document requests to U.S. agencies that would have touched any legitimate conversation: State, Treasury (International Affairs), DFC, EXIM, USTR. We’re asking for emails, calendars, memos, call sheets, and term sheets from March 15–May 31—the planning window, the supposed April meetings, and the immediate aftermath. If the loan was real, there will be a paper trail. If there’s no paper trail, there was no loan - just a political op - and surprise surprise, MAPLE MAGATS are liars too. Canada’s Position We are one country. Our future isn’t decided in a D.C. greenroom or at a donor’s dinner. It’s decided here—by Canadians, under Canadian law, with Canadian interests at heart. Alberta is not for sale—not for US$500 million, not for US$50 billion. The fact of the matter is roughly 11 percent of Alberta’s citizens have secession dreams. They want to join the US because A) they’re dumb religious zealots and hillbiliies who wish to live in a police state controlled by white men and Christian Nationalists, and B) It’s being driven by hardline Christian nationalists and crminals or assholes like Modry or Rath who have been removed from their profession due to their own actions and they’re pissed so they’re running into the arms of their victim cult. Easy game. My guess is Modry and the rest of this apparentist brain trust are lying about the loan, but I also have a very deep understanding of how MAGA is working with at least three of them individually to fund the separatist movement. But let’s call it what it really is. Treason. Sedition by Quislings and victims of Canada’s laws and the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
