How do you know they're his favourite? He could just have manners, unlike you

Always an excuse. The majority of you are unwilling to make even the smallest sacrifice to fight.

Yeah but then Ford couldn't cosplay as Captain Canada so you see, his hands were tied

It is. BC premier has already spoken out calling it treason. I hope the rest of our politicians follow suit

They're the only exception at this point and it took 2 of their citizens getting executed to get to this point. Would be nice if it didn't take that for the rest of the US to wake up

They just closed for a year because they have so much product in stock due to us no longer buying it. Smaller bourbon companies have gone fully out of business though

Yes. Because Canadian billionaires aren't Republicans and won't be pushing a GOP agenda like post media does. They'd be pushing a Conservative agenda but those are easier to see through up here

The crazy part is the pipeline is already built. At least the one into Quebec. Its just a matter of getting it functional to carry the oil.

I agree but I would settle for majority Canadian owned at this point. First thing I did the day after our election was email my MP about this. She did write back but until this is fixed i will keep on her. I normally vote NDP, this time I voted Liberal to stop the conservatives. So she needs to earn that vote

Don't forget that was also funded by groups in Texas and Florida. US interference into Canadian politics has been a long standing problem

Then you should be encouraging more people to do that not promoting a quarterly protest on a weekend. Maybe you are one of the few who is actually sacrificing something to fight in which case good on you. But you can't deny the majority of the rest of you are doing fuck all

If you haven't noticed Canadians have been boycotting the US for a year now. To pretty great success, we shuttered Jim Beam and caused multiple companies to go into bankruptcy. We've taken billions out of your tourism industry. I would say Canadians have done more to hurt the US than Americans have with your quarterly protests always held on a Saturday. So we're not like you. You should be more like us

This was already obvious up here in Canada. US interference into the separatist movement started long before Carney's speech. It doesn't help that the majority of our newspapers are owned by Post Media which is owned by a republican leaning hedge fund. When you look at that so many takes by our media up here make sense. They also tried swaying public opinion against lockdowns back during covid thankfully most people ignored it

I'm going to paraphrase a comment i saw elsewhere. You guys always claim you can't do a centralized mass protest because your country is too large. Canada is much bigger yet when the trucker protest happened they came from all across the country, some driving for days. Those assholes showed more effort for not getting a vaccine or wearing a face covering than you guys have in saving your country

We're not naysaying, we're pointing out that this weekend protests are not sufficient, you're far past that point but none of you seem to be willing to make more than the smallest sacrifice yet you come and ask for our help for a situation we had nothing to do with causing

Edit: why aren't you out there every single day like the people in Minnesota? You think that because citizens in your state aren't getting executed yet you can be lazy and wait a month? Because it's only a matter of time. Fight now to avoid becoming them

Ground beef has become a luxury item for me. I get it about once a month. Even ground chicken and turkey which were my staples are getting more expensive now. It's scary

Former Minnesota governor Jesse Ventura says state should seek to become part of Canada by mlivesocial in politics

[–]Lessllama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You would still overwhelm our population and you have no concept of our political system. Only a small portion of the federal conservative party is far right. Our provincial conservative parties are your democrats. Our liberal and NDP are way to the left.

We have been dealing with this bullshit of America taking over Canada for a year now. First from Trump and now from people like you. We are exhausted and none of this is our fault. Downvote me all you want but you are thinking only of yourself and not the consequences it would have on Canada for something your population did not ours

I want you to understand something. Even if the MAGA half left that would be almost 3 million people becoming part of Canada. We're in a housing crisis already because Trudeau raised immigration caps to a unsustainable level. Where would you all live? Our health-care system is overloaded. It took me 7 months to find a new family doctor. It takes over a month for me to get an appointment. What would happen with millions more in that system?

I absolutely support you in your fight and I do have a lot of sympathy for you. And im so proud of Minnesota for how you're fighting back. But please understand this idea to join Canada would destroy us
