Katheryn Speck said she used to be a Canadian nationalist, travelled the world with a maple leaf on her backpack and once lived in Quebec so she could become fluently bilingual.

But on Saturday she was among hundreds of people who rallied at the Alberta Legislature to support separation from Canada, with many in the crowd waving Alberta flags and a few even displaying the U.S. Stars and Stripes.

"I thought it was a beautiful, fantastic country. But now I'm so disappointed. I'm literally crushed that we'll never be represented in this country and there's never a chance of changing the government," Speck said.

Earlier this week, Premier Danielle Smith's government proposed legislation that would lower the bar for holding a referendum.

Cross-posted from "Tesla sales continue to crash in Europe despite new Model Y" by @MicroWave@lemmy.world in !world@lemmy.world

Tesla’s sales in several key European markets continue to decline sharply in Q2 2025, despite the new Model Y, which was blamed for disappointing sales in the first quarter, now being available.

Over the past couple of years, Tesla’s sales in Europe have been declining.

In 2024, Tesla delivered 11% fewer vehicles in Europe compared to 2023 – despite having ramped up production at its Gigafactory Berlin, where it produces Model Ys for the European market.

While this was already a bad sign for Tesla, sales started to decline at a much sharper rater in 2025 compared to an already bad 2024.

Flavio Volpe, president of the Automotive Parts Manufacturers' Association, met with dozens of auto industry and government representatives on Wednesday. In a presentation at the University of Windsor, he urged them to share their stories publicly to show how Trump's trade war is hurting both Canadians and Americans.

Toronto City Council is expected to vote in late May on a controversial “bubble zone” bylaw that would prohibit protests around faith-based and cultural institutions.

The debate in Toronto follows similar discussions across Canada in response to protests against Israel’s war in Gaza in the aftermath of the Oct. 7 attack.

Opponents of President Donald Trump’s administration took to the streets of communities large and small across the U.S. on Saturday, decrying what they see as threats to the nation’s democratic ideals.

The disparate events ranged from a march through midtown Manhattan and a rally in front of the White House to a demonstration at a Massachusetts commemoration of “the shot heard ‘round the world” on April 19, 1775, marking the start of the Revolutionary War 250 years ago.
