🤦🏼‍♀️ The way the headline reads, you’d think Parker was doing something dumb again but he’s not (for a change).

Lukaszuk is up to his neck in it.

EDMONTON— Elections Alberta has reportedly initiated legal action against an Alberta independence advocacy group after police were seen at a group event on Wednesday.

David Parker, one of the leaders of the Centurion Project, claims they received notice that Alberta's elections office has begun legal action against the group.

The notice was reportedly given when at least eight Edmonton Police Service officers showed up to a Centurion Project speaking event in Edmonton on Wednesday.

Project leaders have said officers were respectful and left the event after learning nothing illegal was happening there, and have criticized Elections Alberta for the theatrics of sending numerous officers to deliver a notice.

"Let this sink in. Someone at Elections Alberta has enough pull to make a call to the chief of police, and get a dozen officers dispatched to serve a notice of 'investigation' letter," wrote Marty Belanger, who was speaking at the event when police were present, on X. "This is pure intimidation."

The Western Standard has reached out to Elections Alberta, EPS, and a Centurion Project leader for comments.

Forever Canadian leader Thomas Lukaszuk turned to X shortly after news about the EPS incident took place, and said his group has learned and confirmed that "Alberta’s list of electors, containing everyone’s personal information, was made available to the separatists."

"This is illegal, risks public safety, and creates uneven playing field as we fight for Canada," wrote Lukaszuk.

Centurion Project leaders have not said whether they used the official list, but an X post by Belanger prior to the event suggested that the group secured information about Albertans legally through Canada post.

"Newsflash folks. Your personal data is for sale," Belanger wrote. "Canada Posts rents it out to other businesses on a regular basis. So do many other corporations."

Canada post openly rents their data to buisnesses, such as Costco, to help with marketing campaigns.

"Access Canada's most advanced address database and reach residential and business addresses by location, demographics, business type and much more," reads the Canada Post website. "Perfect for your acquisition strategy."

Lukaszuk followed his initial post with a screenshot of a Centurion Project resource guide demonstrating the elector search function a available to project members.

"Now that separatists have access to the voters’ list (containing contact information and address of every Albertan), they set up an internal search engine for looking up Albertans," Lukaszuk wrote. "This unprecedented illegal leak, aimed at helping them win the referendum, puts Albertans at risk."

Belanger dismissed the claims, saying Lukaszuk "has never heard of a thing called a 'phone book.'"
