Five stories that explain Canada in 2026
Judges overruling voters, mass immigration, secret land deals — and a $750,000 punishment for speech. If you were an Albertan, would you stay?

Canada in 2026 can be summed up with five short stories.
None of them happened in Alberta.
But every one of them is a reason Albertans are asking whether they still belong in this country.
Start in Ontario. A judge has ruled that the sex offender registry is unconstitutional. That registry exists for a reason: to track pedophiles, rapists and other dangerous criminals after they’re released. It’s supported by overwhelming public opinion and enacted by elected legislatures.
But one judge decided otherwise.
That’s Canada now. A single unelected judge can simply overturn the will of voters and their representatives — and that’s the end of it.
Next stop: the Supreme Court of Canada.
In an 8-1 ruling, the court decided that Quebec discriminated against asylum seekers by denying them taxpayer-funded daycare.
Think about that. Elected politicians in Quebec decided that social services should go to Quebec families first. The court disagreed.
And so Canadians must now subsidize daycare for foreign nationals — including many who entered the country irregularly.
Meanwhile Ottawa continues its mass-immigration experiment.
A new federal program will grant 33,000 foreign workers permanent residency. The trick? These workers were originally supposed to be temporary.
The government now claims it is reducing the number of temporary foreign workers by simply making them permanent.
Problem solved — except for Canadians trying to find their first job.
Then there’s British Columbia.
The federal government quietly negotiated a land agreement recognizing Aboriginal title over large areas — without meaningful consultation with the public whose land is being negotiated away.
Even legal experts say the process was unacceptable.
And finally, the story that best captures Canada’s current insanity.
Former Chilliwack school trustee Barry Neufeld was fined $750,000 by the B.C. Human Rights Tribunal for opposing gender ideology in schools.
Not for violence.
Not for threats.
For speech.
Three-quarters of a million dollars.
That’s the price for disagreeing with the approved narrative.
None of these stories happened in Alberta.
But Albertans read them every day.
And they ask a simple question: why stay in a country that looks like this?
The paradox is that many of the people most open to Alberta independence are also the most patriotic Canadians.
They’re the ones who still fly the flag.
The ones who objected when Sir John A. Macdonald was erased from the $10 bill.
The ones who didn’t want the national anthem rewritten or statues torn down.
They’re watching the rest of Canada dismantle the country they believed in.
Meanwhile Alberta is moving in a different direction.
The province is strengthening free speech protections for professionals — what some are calling “Peterson’s Law,” after Jordan Peterson. Doctors, lawyers, engineers and other professionals won’t lose their licences simply for expressing controversial political opinions unrelated to their work.
In other words: Alberta is expanding freedom while the rest of Canada restricts it.
That contrast is becoming impossible to ignore.
And with a provincial referendum coming on October 19, Albertans may soon decide whether they want to remain part of the mess.
GUEST: Middle East expert Dr. Daniel Pipes joins the show to discuss Iran and the global implications of the regime’s ambitions.

Angela Watt commented 2026-03-09 11:56:05 -0400I’m worried that these people in our airports have not been vetted properly because most of those that crossed the border were not vetted at all. Makes it difficult to have confidence in flying… -
Angela Watt commented 2026-03-09 11:45:16 -0400I think apathy will kill our country!

Angela Watt commented 2026-03-09 11:42:49 -0400Starmer of the U.K. has his own problems. The U.K. has become a failed state under his administration and because they have not protected Brits, foreigners have taken over & he’s done NOTHING to protect his citizens. I think that soon, the U.K. will become a caliphate under Islamic rule!! I think the Brits are too late in rejecting this evil.

Angela Watt commented 2026-03-09 11:17:20 -0400Rebel News doesn’t call Albertans racists, bigots et al. The mainstream media would rather lie about what Alberta wants rather than explain, like Reble News does by actually going to the town halls & protests unlike the mainstream media who don’t attend, don’t know what’s actually going on, why we’re unhappy with the Feds & instead, they make up crap that is mostly false because the really don’t know the concerns, not only of Albertans, but of Canadians as a whole. The mainstream media has their heads up their asses because they’re supported by taxpayer funds thus refuse to actually explain what the issues are. They simply call us names & tell us we’re spoiled brats. Well, that will certainly lead to positive outcomes, won’t they? The fact that the media could care a less about the thoughts & feelings of Canadians is disgusting.
At least Rebel News, True North & Juno News are the media that should be followed because they report “the other side” that the mainstream media refuses to report. Alberta has some REAL concerns. How would you like it if someone came into your home & demanded you pay x amount of funds to support other “less prosperous” provinces & then kick you in the head by refusing to allow you to increase your revenue? I’m sure you’d happily comply right? Sure.
The Federal government has consistently overreached into provincial jurisdiction & Alberta has FINALLY said, enough is enough!! Other provinces should do the same and THEN maybe, the Feds would get back into their own track. But no, other provinces bend to the Feds will thus unconstitutional crap happens all the time. Why are they putting up with this crap? The Constitution is quite clear where the Feds have jurisdiction & where the provinces have theirs. I think the notwithstanding clause hasn’t been used enough!! -
Gary Schoutsen commented 2026-03-09 11:10:45 -0400Alberta has the right to separate but Rebel News has become totally unbalanced and even arrogant on the issue which is why I will no longer support them.

Angela Watt commented 2026-03-09 11:05:08 -0400Gary Schoutsen: While I disagree with your action, you are entitled to do as you wish. But the fact that Rebel News supports THE FREEDOM FOR ALBERTANS TO DETERMINE THEIR FATE is what is called democracy FYI. The fact of the matter is that Albertans have a right to vote their wishes and doing it by direct democracy is the way to do it rather than having “something” forced down their throats.

Gary Schoutsen commented 2026-03-09 09:26:43 -0400Ezra, I supported you way back when you were in your living room. I sympathise with Alberta but I can no longer support Rebel News as you are dedicated to the dissolution of Canada.

Allan Groat commented 2026-03-07 14:52:25 -0500I agree with Shannon Brault; time for Alberta/Saskatchewan Seperation; the rest of Canada can pay for Quebec
-
Shannon Brault commented 2026-03-07 10:30:42 -0500The video jumping up and down is super irritating.
I honestly see no reason for Alberta or Saskatchewan to stay in Canada. -
Anthony Salotti commented 2026-03-07 07:32:38 -0500I see this happening too .

Paul McCullough commented 2026-03-07 07:15:13 -0500The Bible is the proven word of God. A falling away from the faith is a sign of these end times. The NWO will consist of 10 “super-states” (see Daniel 2, Daniel 7, Revelation 13). This has been decided by the Club of Rome / UN (though the boundaries have been changed over time. The EU is in place. North America will be next. Canada’s demise was pre-planned, and has been moving forward earnestly since 2015.

Allan Groat commented 2026-03-06 22:19:29 -0500I recommend Iranians overthrow their leadership as a EMP over the Capital would result in a die-off of the population to 10% in a year thereby solving the problem.

Ken Elias commented 2026-03-06 20:49:20 -0500Reasons # 304 to 307 for Alberta separation. Already had the Barry Neufeld story as reason 298 earlier this week. -
Bruce Atchison commented 2026-03-06 20:41:51 -0500I think Ezra is using the wrong definition of miracle. When miracles happened in the Bible, it was obvious that no human force could have pulled it off. Crossing the Red Sea was one of the most famous miracles. So was Gideon’s defeat of the Midianites. And the sun standing still for a whole day during Joshua’s battles with the Canaanites had no natural cause.
