Decades of history burned by one asshole.
…and also thousands of enablers in every branch of government, every boardroom, and every newsroom.
Don’t forget the millions of voters as well
This is the important part.
The whole world suffered trump’s first term as a sort of scam that many confused, struggling Americans fell for.
But then y’all go and do it a second time? Fuck you.
What do they say? Fool me once, shame on you…
…can’t get fooled again!
It’s not one, at least half of our federal government is behind this and is signing off/agreeing with this.
Oh, he’s started on the Smithsonian so it’s going to be centuries.
Oh god fucking damnit seriously? He’s hollowing out the fucking Smithsonian? Jesus tapdancing christ.
They have a museum of African American history, and are preparing a museum of American women. Of course he wants to gut it.
There is also Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian
He who controls the past. Controls the future.
Damn bros. This makes me sad on a Friday. We used to be besties.
Eh fuck governments, I’ll always love my Canadian bros.
Just like I have nothing against Chinese or Russian citizens, I hope others will be able to separate us from our fascist government.
Unfortunately the tools of statecraft aren’t all that granular. To make the Trump regime suffer, many Americans will suffer even if they don’t support Trump.
Yes, it’s unavoidable that we all have to suffer because of his regime. Same deal with the Russian sanctions.
He is right and I hope he and his party will win the election easily.
I wonder if this and others will force US rebuilding efforts to include governmental reform if and when Trump is out. No amount of Obamas can reassure people the US isn’t just going to flip out the left time it changes hands again.
ok so thats cool and all but how do we join? washington oregon california want in
You fix your mess internally, do something to deal with your government besides complain… In the other western countries we are starting to adjust to the US no longer being part of the club… act before we get used to that concept.
Step one is to secede from the US. You aren’t actually going to be part of Canada, but an EU style arrangement in North America could happen.
!general@50501.chat. Protest. Join your local Tesla Takedown. 5 calls. Buy Canadian.
Americans should start boycotting red state’s agricultural/liquor products hard.
Elect progressives, enact progressive policies and then apply i guess! I’d be happy to have states aligned with our values join canada
you can’t You’re basically fucked
The fascists want you to give up. Do not let them win.
You aren’t like us and we don’t want you, harsh but for the best
Imagine californians buying up all of Vancouver Island for example. No thanks
We really dont want your states. We dont like American culture. Its led to whatever the fuck you have going on down there.
probably for the best
those are words of a politician. This is what “sells” today. We’ll need to see very specific actions to back it up. Thus far most politicians shown lack of spine and would turn on a dime at first opportunity. Canada could’ve been “divorced” from US for over a decade now when Cretien hinted at desire to move in that direction… but nope, here we are overdependant on US and thumping our chests “never again”.
We’ve always known our growing interdependence is a risk, but there’s been many benefits and decades of good experience. Occasionally, the US has done things that have slowed this progression and has made many of us wary while some (especially business leaders in sectors such as oils and gas) insisting it’s silly paranoia.
For politicians to make such a major move, there has to be a strong interest or concern amongst electorate. In a matter of weeks, Trump obliterated the idea that this is silly paranoia, and there’s a strong sense of halt! Fuck no! reverse, hard! So I think it is completely different this time.lets hope it “sticks”. Any class in economics say “diversify your portfolio”, Canada needs just that. 10% hit is less than 90% hit if you’re dealing with multiple partners.
Now think of all the jobs to secure a massive border that didn’t need to be guarded for generations!

Pierre 2025, save our country from another liberal failure.
Poilievre is Canada’s right-wing aligned with Trump. He will sell us out.
Dudes said nothing but the complete opposite the entire time he’s been leader of the opposition. Bring jobs to Canada, Canada first, ect. This is made up bullshit that he would “sell out” anything.
Read the CPC platform, your opinion will change real quick.
Seems pretty awesome.
Sure if you want canada to end up like the us
Canada needs to do some things like the US, there’s no getting around it.
Getting more resources out of the ground, across the country, and to trade partners is critical. It always has been, and the liberals have opposed this for decades.
The things Mark has done so far that people seem to like are mostly things the opposition has been saying for several years.
Interprovincial trade barriers? Gone. Pipeline across the country? Probably will not happen with the liberals. Carbon Tax? Well, it’s being hidden somewhere else. I could go on.
There’s no reason the think the last ten years of complete stagnation, scandals and lies will not continue especially given a majority of the party remains the same.
I’m more concerned about Carneys global elitist buddy’s at WEF and blackrock then I am about anything Pierre has talked about.
No, we don’t need to do like the us. Unless you want fascist. Getting rid of interprovincial trade barriers is good. Pipeline across the country? Not great. The carbon tax was good. The last 10 years weren’t complete stagnation, scandals and lies, at least not more than harpers reign. I’m more concerned about Pierre’s association and trumpism than carneys WEF contacts
There is no liberal party, there is no ndp.
There is you, the frog, and the scorpion, the conservative party. And every election the scorpion will ask you to let it ride across the river on your back.
