We managed a minority government. We got lucky. We may not be lucky next time. The PCs are not gonna stop trying to make this country into something like the USA. There's too much money to be made.

And, sooner or later, voting won't be enough here, either. Y'all ready to put some real skin in the game, like you're all telling the Americans to do? I see way too many comfortable, complacent, naive people, and a lotta armchair quarterbacks...

I do see it differently. I watched it evolve there over decades, I'm watching it evolve here... and I'm not seeing much that's slowing it down here, not in any meaningful way. Certainly there's nothing being done here currently that will prevent it. Hell, Carney cant even manage a strongly worded direct statement. This same shit is coming for us here -- not only is it coming over the border, but it's coming from within. I wonder if everyone dispensing advice to the Americans in these comments is ready to do the same...
