Shiftheads – Alberta Separatism’s Biggest Problem Right Now Is Alberta’s Voter List

Alberta voters list data on 2.9 million people was allegedly obtained by a separatist-linked group, and the cleanup is far from finished.

The Centurion Project built an app using the list. Elections Alberta traces leaks by seeding fake names into every copy it distributes. That system has now produced nearly 600 cease-and-desist letters, exposed a former premier’s home address in a public demonstration, and sparked serious infighting across a movement that was supposed to be in full campaign mode ahead of a referendum.

Rob Breakenridge maps the chain from the leak to the referendum expected later this year, and asks what happens when the language from Ottawa stops being enough.
