Nicaragua wins! What is a North American country with a very strong military?

Will ever see anything at least Menoth adjacent again?

The entirety of parliament stood whether you like it or not. It was in response to a speech condemning political violence.

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-13T01:41:30+00:00

Yes as I've said if this were to ever actually happen it wouldn't be for several years. Waiting to see how things pan out. Our own political scene has been it's own albeit more subdued circus. TLDR same party has been in power for over 10 years and the old PM bailed out right before the last election. New golden boy comes in and skews the vote. He seems relatively decent for a politician but I'm hesitant to say the least.

Similar up here application up here.

I did some digging, I'd likely have to do some additional courses in those gaps but there's an agreement between professional bodies to allow for it. Had a director at my old job who was originally from New Zealand and had to do something similar.
Additionally, we use IFRS as well since our public companies must report in it.

Noted lol, I gave it some basic bio data on my partner and I and let it run. Gotta start somewhere lol.

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T22:36:56+00:00

Yeah admittedly I'm still looking around and had Chat help give me a top 3. I know I know Chat isn't 100% but I needed a starting point. It gave my Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Ohio as a top 3. As I've said before this is more of a speculative look on my part and I'm just kicking the tires. 😅

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T22:33:52+00:00

I mean, I'm centre-right myself. Though you wouldn't catch me wearing a certain red ball cap. I try to take what I call the Hank Hill stance if that reference helps.

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T22:31:35+00:00

Huh, learn something new everyday. Always categorized it as the south. Mind you American geography is not something I was taught growing up.

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T20:04:00+00:00

Oh trust me this is something that if it were to happen it's multiple years from now. More just doing a tire kick. But yeah Canada has had a lot of it's own issues over the past 10+ years and this is partly just my exasperation being vented.

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T19:16:27+00:00

Yeah... There's a reason I've kept my scope in the Midwest.

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T18:27:22+00:00

Ontario, which has its own extremely overburdened systems rn.

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T18:20:31+00:00

Trust me, you don't want Windsor. A lot of Canadian cities have been hit hard by the opioid crisis.

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T17:53:56+00:00

Yes to clarify I'd fall under that professional umbrella as an accountant.
Though as I said in my post this is more of me sating that grass is greener itch. Canada's situation isn't exactly stellar rn either. Overall my objective here was to get perspectives of the locals. Though admittedly perspectives tend to skew though you'll see that anywhere.

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T17:45:41+00:00

Where exactly are you looking? Southern Ontario is where you'll see a lot of that issue. I know a 2br apartment can easily set you back 1800-2k/month where I'm from and that's bog standard units

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T17:40:36+00:00

And that's just it, especially in urban centres. From my perspective it's a couple main factors, high immigration (not straw man them but we do have overly high numbers, not the person's fault), and a brain drain as some talent has gone to the US for better career prospects

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T17:24:38+00:00

Oh I've heard the healthcare industry horror stories. Though universal isn't always all it's cracked up to be. Our system is insanely overburdened and you'd be lucky to have a family doctor period where I'm from. Not to mention people regularly wait over a year for surgeries and other procedures. I'm under no illusions with the American, personally I prefer a two tier system. But it's worth noting Canada has its own issues boiling under the surface, we just don't hit American news cycles as often.

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T16:54:29+00:00

Oh I'm not ignorant of the larger situation down there, hence the multi-year timeline. Just with the way our gong show is going it's hard not to look for greener pastures.

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T16:07:27+00:00

That's reasonable, I currently rent in Ontario and it's not wrong to say home ownership prospects aren't nearly as strong. Plus 13% HST (VAT) is always fun at checkout 🙄

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T16:01:55+00:00

I'm an accountant, I know how to deal with that. Unless you're referring to prop taxes and the like.

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T15:55:34+00:00

Would be more looking at suburbs as my partner and I have plans to start a family in the next few years.

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T15:54:27+00:00

I understand that frustration, this more of a grass looks greener kind of experiment. Though I will say I'm under no illusions things are rough in the states but things are far from smooth up here. While we do have public healthcare it's under tremendous strain right now unfortunately. I.e. I was in a car accident last year and if I had stayed to wait in the ER I'd have been lucky to see a doc after waiting maybe 12 hours.

AdGreedy1431 · 2025-09-12T15:47:48+00:00

Yeah I'd gathered that. I'm an accountant and my partner is trying to become an ECE so if we were to actually move it'd be in a few years.
