Oh no, Canada!

Canada has finished itself off with the results of last night's election.

Woe is Canada.

With the election of liberal globalist Mark Carney, Canadians have effectively finished themselves off.

Apparently, the past decade of economic disaster and despair—courtesy of the self-same Liberal Party-- was not enough for our friends in the Great White North.

Winnipeg Sun columnist Kevin Klein recently noted that there is substantial evidence the Carney Liberal Party is strongly considering implementing a home equity tax on Canadians’ primary residences (on top of all the other taxes Canucks pay) as a colossal cash cow to bring down the massive national debt that their own profligate spending created.

As if that’s not bad enough, Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre recently urged Canadians to read what he termed a “jaw-dropping” federal report that warns Canada could soon be headed for large-scale economic and social collapse.

The Liberal government’s own Privy Council report, titled Future Lives: Social Mobility In Question, admits that one “plausible” scenario is that home ownership may become utterly unaffordable for the vast majority of Canadians as soon as 2040, and that “more people may struggle to afford rent, bills or groceries” which could subsequently cause workers to leave the country.

Where would they go? Perhaps the U.S.?

Sounds bad, eh?

Not to worry, the report states that “People may start to hunt, fish and forage on public lands.” If a significant percentage of a nation’s population has to “forage” on public lands to survive, that nation is not a viable member of the world community. No matter how much it may wish to be one.

How long before China owns all of Canada?

A lot of the Canucks shot themselves in the foot yesterday. But hey! They really showed that Trump guy. ROTFL!

[MtnClimber]

Canada got rid of Castro’s son.....and for what?

Is this trolling a long-term strategy by POTUS? Alberta will be far more likely to secede after being subjected to the climate-obsessed Marx Carney regime.

[marktwain]

The Media in Canada is almost entirely state owned and/or subsidized.

Censorship is rampant in Canada.

Canadians have little way of knowing what is true, of saying what is true, or of complaining about what the government has created.

I read somewhere on a forum that a FReeper posted that Trunp wanted to get out of the trilateral agreement anyway.

Mexico saw what was happening so they decided to stay quiet.

Canada on another hand...

[Bruce Campbells Chin]

Canadian provinces do. It have a right to secede. Not sure how that myth got started.

[gundog]

Yeah, sansfirearms, foraging in the GWN is a lesson in the food chain. Try fishing. From a boat.

[Bruce Campbells Chin]

‘Do not have a right to secede.”

That's exactly what I was thinking Trump's strategy might be. The whole idea of Canada joining us is crazy. They would never want us and we would never want those crazy leftist voters.

But if we could pick off a flyover province or two like AB, or MB, or WP where the voters aren't crazy left, that could be a big win!

Good bye Canada. Hopefully, Alberta can get those 600000 signatures before their population dwindles down to nothing.

[A strike]

You’re asking from like yesteryear ?

[Captainpaintball]

How long before China owns all of Canada?

How long before China puts their military in Canada, on our borders?

[packagingguy]

During the Depression many streams and lakes were fished out. After the war many states started re-stocking programs.

Foraging only works when there aren’t many people around.

When he met with Trump, Trudeau admitted that without American trade, Canada would face economic collapse. That was when Trump started his statehood talk.

[Pres Raygun]

If Alberta alone or Alberta with Saskatchewan could pull off a successful secession, they'd be fools to subsequently join the US, since they would be throwing away their new found freedom only to be controlled by the next Democrat President. Both provinces are resource rich with relatively small populations. They would be almost immediately the richest country in the world per capita. What they would lack would be a transportation corridor to world markets. Under Trump, pipelines and railways through the US would be the simplest solution, but a Democrat President or Democrat Congress might severely restrict those options. The best solution would be to peel off northern BC, but that would be an almost impossible task legally, since communist Vancouver would have a say.

[hinckley buzzard]

I think with the internet most Canadians can be as well informed as they want to be. That doesn’t meant hey will vote with intelligence, any more than Americans did in 2020.

“....The best solution would be to peel off northern BC, but that would be an almost impossible task legally, since communist Vancouver would have a say.”

Incorporate Vancouver and Victoria into Washington state, keep all the toxicity within a state that is already lost. Incorporate the northern part of BC into Alberta, giving them a path to the sea. We can assist with building pipelines and a port for a piece of the action.

What they would lack is a militar to protect that wealth.

Hence, USA protectorate or statehood.
