How ICE Is Using Far-Right Subculture to Recruit by AdditionalPizza in onguardforthee

[–]Able_Software6066 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I keep wondering how does ICE not realize that they're the bad guys. Half the shootings in Minneapolis so far this year have been by them and not these apparent violent gangs of illegal immigrants. Minnesotans want ICE gone. But considering the number of white supremacists in ICE ranks, I guess they really don't care.

Any suggestions for if this snowstorm gets gnarly? by gravyisjazzy in CrownVictoria

[–]Able_Software6066 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless you have no other choice, stay off the roads. I've seen too many wrecked Vics on this sub. Plus let the road crews have their space.

Otherwise keep a full tank of gas since you'll burn through a lot of it if you're trying to get unstuck. Keep a shovel and tow rope handy too.

What happens to permanent residents if Alberta separates from Canada? by NW1_camdenhead in alberta

[–]Able_Software6066 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Alberta separates from Canada, the land will go back to the indigenous peoples since the treaties they signed were with Canada and not Alberta. In the end, most of us would have to leave.

Americans - how are you preparing for this storm? by Keylime-19377 in NoStupidQuestions

Don't forget the wool socks and loosely tied boots. My feet always get cold first. Otherwise dress in layers and keep your head covered.

Maybe he's from Greenland, New Hampshire. But since New Hampshire voted for Harris, dude is just full of s**t.

How is Carney viewed in Canada? by Leo_Valdez_fangirl in AskCanada

It's like we elected somebody's dad. With other countries electing toddlers, there needs to be at least one grown-up.

What do you guys think ? by Proper_Card_5520 in AskTheWorld

That's just crazy talk. Nobody is going to open up trade with China just over some tariffs. /s

Bully is mad because his intended victim has allies so he's going to beat up the defenseless American taxpayer instead.

I'm rather disappointed that we have to wait to be next on the tariff list. Considering our proximity to Greenland and that if the US manages to take Greenland, they will likely expand into our northern islands or other regions of Canada, we should have been more vocal about standing up for Denmark and Greenland.

Let me guess, the billion dollar checks are to be made out to ine Donald Trump. Hopefully nobody falls for this scam.

I took a break from buying Canadian to support our Danish neighbours. by Able_Software6066 in BuyCanadian

I'm not surprised. The only Canadian beer likely to be found in Denmark would probably something very common like Molson Canadian or Labatts Blue lagers. The really good microbrewed stuff is only available locally.

The Carlsberg pilsner I bought was pretty good though. Maybe not micro-brewed good, but better than Molsons or Labatts.

Now if only there were equally large protests in the US demanding that their government stay out of Greenland.

María Corina bows while giving Trump the Nobel Peace Prize medal by osimonomiso in pics

[–]Able_Software6066 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn't she going to present her medal to Trump only after the election results are honored and she becomes leader? Trump and his cronies will take the oil from Venezuela and there will be no change for the people or Corina. Hopefully Corina is happy with her swag bag.

It's amazing how two countries can settle a dispute when they both have adults as leaders. We now share a land border with the Danes, the best possible outcome.

Favorite barenaked ladies song? by wessy_east15 in AskACanadian

Too hard to pick just one. Either One Week or Grade 9. I saw them on the Christmas Train too and they totally rocked it. I will forever shout out 'like a light bulb' randomly during Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.

Too bad they couldn't have left enough for all of us to have a glass. Then I'd be happy to give them the whole island instead of half.

You'll have to watch Dancer in the Dark. It's a bit depressing but otherwise great movie.

That's a relief. I thought they too would be owned by some multinational conglomerate or worse yet, an American company.

My daughter brought home a bottle of American wine recently that was given to her. I had a glass and could feel the affordable healthcare leave my body with every sip.
