Secession Speakeasy 150 (Public House Edition): Has Canada’s “National Divorce Era” officially Begun?

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss the rapid unfolding of events in Canada, especially in the wake of the 2025 Canadian federal elections. Why does secession preparation appear to be increasing in intensity across Alberta, Saskatchewan and Quebec in particular? What is particularly striking about the differences in preparation approaches? What is it about the recent turn of events which seems to point to the real possibility that Canada’s National Divorce era has now begun?

Secession Speakeasy 149 (Public House Edition): South African Marxists threaten peaceful self-governing Orania!

Professor Wall and the Reporter discuss the rising threats, protests and political attacks being made against the self-governing South African community of Orania by the Marxist political groups holding power in various forms and degrees in South Africa. Why are the charges of racism and apartheid being leveled against Orania untrue and what is the real agenda against Orania which the Marxists are using the labels as cover for? What is especially dangerous about the tactics the Marxists are using and what could it lead to? Could Orania and the example it has set be a solid foundation for the beginning of a Volkstaat country which secedes from the failing state of South Africa? Why is it imperative for the freedom of all peoples in South Africa that the BRICS countries stay out of South Africa’s impending dissolution?

Secession Speakeasy 148 (Public House Edition): Cape Independence Goes to Washington!

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss the recent developments surrounding the situation in South Africa. AfriForum and South African Solidarity successfully lobbied Donald Trump and Elon Musk to bring attention to the plight of the Afrikaners and the slowly unfolding genocide in South Africa. However these episodes do not seem to have brought about support from the American government for the Cape Independence cause despite the Cape Independence groups sending a delegation to Washington seeking geopolitical help. Why is getting help from Washington unlikely? Where is the success of the Cape Independence effort more likely to arise from? Why is it imperative for the freedom of all peoples in South Africa that the BRICS countries stay out of South Africa’s impending dissolution?

What lessons can we take from the world today of the realities surrounding movements which successfully achieved independence for the parts of the world? What does success for self-determination efforts look like in different contexts? What are the potential results which unfold if people’s rights and needs for self-determination are denied through manipulation by the ruling classes?
