The results of the October 21, 2019 election have served to confirm that Canada is a lost cause. Liberal prime minister Justin Trudeau, a very silly person who likes bobbing around in Indian costumes, praying in mosques robed in a white thawb, and uttering idiocies like “We don’t say mankind, we say peoplekind,” who pranced about in blackface and flaunting a genital banana, and who is guilty of two ethics violations which he wears like a badge of honor, has been re-elected, albeit with a minority government. With 157 seats the Liberals fell 13 short of majority status.
The New Democratic Party continues its course as a socialist aberration that will never die, even if it remains on mental life support; the press tells us it has surged in the polls though, in reality, it lost 15 seats from its previous total of 39. But it remains a player.
The Conservatives topped the Liberals in the popular vote, 34.4 to 33.06, but its 121 seats is testimony to a party that has run out of feet to shoot, owing to a lackluster campaign, a war room with the collective intelligence of a zucchini and a gelatinous leader who should be immediately cashiered, surely a plus for the party, though he has vowed to stay on. Who would replace him is another question entirely.
A major surprise was the performance of the Bloc Québécois, the formerly separatist party that was effectively wiped out in the previous two elections, which crossed the finish line with 32 seats. What its role will be in the new parliament is unclear. The Green Party, a mosh pit of vocal nonentities, managed 3 seats, a historic high, but the environment is still safe from its frenetic meddling.

ELECTIONS WILL HAVE CONSEQUENCES.
The dilemma that Canada now faces is:
* a bruited coalition between the Liberals and the Social Democrats.
We can then expect
* a tsunami of mounting debt,
* vastly increased Muslim immigration as a captive voting bloc,
* feminism on steroids,
* fake climate alarmism,
* identity politics with a vengeance,
* more aboriginal land claims,
* “social justice” nonsense subbing for national policy,
* the further alienation of Western Canada resentful of Central Canada’s domination, and
* the critical disenchantment of energy-storehouse Alberta.
Maybe the US should offer to annex Western Canada?
See if Alberta will become the 51st state (or 58th depending on who is counting).
Canada’s budget deficit for the current fiscal year is less than $20 billion.
We Americans should read that number and collectively kill ourselves.
They want to secede as western Canada. Wexit.com has a Facebook group that is huge at the moment.
Alberta would have to be retarded to voluntarily join the U.S.
Canada’s Liberals are fiscally more responsible than the U.S. Republicans—and often the socialists sound more fiscally responsible than the Pubs in congress actually are.
The fiscal division of powers, perhaps by design, perhaps by accident, in fact works better in Canada than things in fact work in the U.S.
Maybe Trump can work something out with Alberta but I believe Alberta would have to make the first overture.
Per capita, Alberta is one of the wealthiest places on earth and if they came into the U.S., they would have the highest per capita income of all the states.
Right now, Alberta is being made to pay the biggest share of the welfare state back east.
RE: I see Alberta deciding to come to the U.S. as a real possibility. If I recall, Canada has a provision to allow provinces to secede peacefully if that is there decision.
Why can’t they just form their own country instead?
Quebec almost did it.
It is more likely that some of the Rocky Mountain states would petition to join Alberta. You might even include Yukon and Alaska in that mix as well to provide an all season seaport or two.
I don’t mean to brag, but I probably know Alberta better than 99.9% of Americans do. And I can tell you that most intelligent Albertans have a healthy distrust in big government that makes them LESS likely to join the U.S. than to stay in Canada.
I, for one, welcome our new WesCan neighbors...
As a landlocked region, independence for Alberta would be highly problematic.
Well you would certainly know the mood there better than me. But I do believe Alberta would be an excellent addition to the U.S.A. so perhaps someday that could be worked out.
RE: As a landlocked region, independence for Alberta would be highly problematic.
Not sure why that would be a problem. Hungary, Austria, Switzerland and the Czech Republic are all landlocked. Their economy are not exactly third rate.
The U.S. can afford to be fiscally irresponsible because we don’t mind toppling governments all over the world and forcing these countries to adopt the U.S. dollar as their official trade currency.
Time to build the northern wall.
Most I have talked to in the last two days would be happy to be number 51.
No we wouldn’t, don’t speak for me. I speak for thousands up north who have no issue with this. Logistically, it makes sense.
