At the January 2021 election, SayerQT narrowly lost the federal election to the JesTer-affiliated KiwiFruht. At this election, government supporters won all 3 positions on the Supreme Court, and charges were levied against the Reform candidate for Chancellor, SayerQT, who was put on trial by the new Supreme Court for "circumventing the Parliament, and attempted electoral fraud". SayerQT had their citizenship stripped and was in exile in Cascadia and Louisiana for two weeks until being permitted to return after the resignation of KiwiFruht just 17 days into her ministry. However, SayerQT was placed on a probation and ban on public office, including Parliament, until this was successfully overturned by SayerQT in February 2021. The ban on holding the office of Chancellor remained for an additional two months. What would commence in the next period was a period of dominant rule by the Albertan and Canadian Rocky political elite that would last until June of 2021. | ||

During March of 2021, British Columbia came out of inactivity. A push for legislative and constitutional reforms were introduced by Vorobyevite, spurred on by K1_'s agenda for reviving the activity it once saw in the past. On March 11th, 2021, the Province of Canadian Rockies merged with the core Province of British Columbia. Recruitment drives were initiated, and the nation has sprung back from it's slumber. On March 16th, 2021, the sixth revision of the Constitution passed, solidifying the Secretariat and reaffirming the role of the Parliament . On March 24, 2021, the core Province of British Columbia jumped from /n list 7 to /n list 1, and rose to #9 on the list at about 175 citizens, surpassing the old record of 165. British_Columbia, in game, had gained over 130 citizens in just 1 week. | During March of 2021, British Columbia came out of inactivity.

At the July 2021 federal election, SayerQT was permitted to run in the election, and won a landslide victory, forming a national unity government as a result, with former chancellor and Jesterite ally Fortis_Ipsum serving as Vice-Chancellor. However, Alberta would soon secede from the federation, starting a period of political recession for the Federation in the early days of SayerQT's second chancellery. The secession and the later political reform would uncover a substantial plot by Albertan and Canadian Rocky elites in government to prohibit SayerQT as the primary opposition leader from challenging and holding public office, and ran a secret organization that executed governmental duties independently of the constitutional government, known as the Salish Intelligence Service. The SIS was immediately disbanded following the uncovering of it by Chancellor SayerQT. | |||
SayerQT's term saw closer relations with the Eastern Canadian nation of Acadia, which was admitted to the Federation as a Province on July 5th, 2021, bringing with it new members to the nation. New Albany and St. Lawrence are Acadian towns that are Salish Federation Protectorates when Acadia left the Salish Federation on September 9th, 2021 to pursue their own path. The admission of Acadia brought substantial activity but also led to substantial instability and foreign policy disputes with Quebec, who led a [[SayerQT#The Coup d'état of 27 July|coup]] against the Salish-dominated government of the Canadian Empire. | |||
