Trolling or part of a larger plan?: Why Elon Musk waded into the separatism debate
When Elon Musk called for Quebec, Alberta and Saskatchewan to separate from Canada earlier this week, it may have been nothing more than the trillionaire engaging in some anti-Canadian trolling. But it's also possible 'another game' was being played.
Elon Musk recently suggested that Quebec, Alberta, and Saskatchewan should separate from Canada. This statement may have been an instance of Musk engaging in trolling or it could be part of a larger plan.
Musk's comments appear to have been intended to help separatist movements within Canada, according to the Winnipeg Free Press. The Winnipeg Free Press described Musk as the "world's first trillionaire".
The motivations behind Musk's statement are unclear, leaving room for interpretation. CBC News suggested that Musk's comments could be seen as either a form of anti-Canadian trolling or a more calculated move.
