https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChLtXXpo4Ge1ReTEboVvTDg https://ift.tt/Pwe5pTW U.S. Ambassador to Canada Pete Hoekstra says the Trump administration has not met with Alberta separatists, nor discussed any potential financial support for an independent Alberta, directly contradicting claims made by prominent separatists.
“No, we’re not meeting with the separatists and strategizing this at all,” Hoekstra told Global News.
A report in the Financial Times, citing sources familiar with the talks, said leaders of the Alberta Prosperity Project met three times with U.S. State Department officials in Washington since April.
Alberta Prosperity Project leader Jeffery Rath, the group spearheading the separatist movement, has publicly stated his organization has met with American officials. That includes a meeting with US Treasury officials to discuss a potential US$500-billion line of credit for an independent Alberta.
Global's Mackenzie Gray sat down with Hoekstra in this exclusive interview.
