Foreign adversaries are meddling in the Alberta separatist debate in ways that threaten Canada’s sovereignty and national security, warns a report released Wednesday. The study by leading information researchers said American and Russian actors were playing a dangerous role in the province’s dispute over seceding from Canada.

Disinformation expert Marcus Kolga joins Global’s Miranda Anthistle to discuss the findings.

“This movement is targeted just as any other very potentially polarizing issues are targeted,” Kolga said, “Our foreign adversaries seek this out, especially Russia. They’re very good at monitoring our information space, our political ecosystem and finding, identifying those issues which have the greatest potential for dividing Canadians.”

Moscow has a long history of peddling disinformation that aims to undermine Canada, but U.S. officials and influencers aligned with President Donald Trump have now joined in, according to the study.
