As a Canadian living in what amounts to a Covid dictatorship in a nascent totalitarian country, I envy my American counterparts, at least those living free of lockdowns, masks, mandates, and vaxxports in the so-called “red” or Republican states. Were the legislative chains struck from our ankles, and if the Biden administration relaxed its border controls, my wife and I would be among them in a heartbeat.
Federal Democrats notwithstanding, the contrast between our two countries is instructive. Citizens from progressivist states like New York or California or Oregon may conceivably move to conservative states like Florida or Texas or Tennessee—and are doing so in record numbers. In Canada, freedom-loving citizens from autocratic provinces like New Brunswick or Quebec or Ontario would see no purpose in moving to, say, Prince Edward Island or Manitoba or British Columbia, which are ideologically equivalent.
In the U.S., approximately half the country is politically offset by the other half whereas, in Canada, half the country is politically near-identical to the other half. Americans who wish to live free still have somewhere to go. Canadians have nowhere to go unless they leave the country entirely—though they are not permitted to do so if unvaccinated regardless of the Charter right to travel (Section 6). Approximately one quarter of Canadian citizens are symbolically wearing orange jumpsuits—indeed, according to recent polls, 27 percent of Canadians want to see these miscreants in literal prison garb.
In a letter to the prime minister of Canada, the national leader of the Christian Heritage Party of Canada writes: “collateral damage caused by lockdowns, layoffs, bankruptcies, mortgage foreclosures, business closures, supply chain disruptions, missed education days, missed and postponed medical appointments and procedures and other unforeseen impacts far outweigh any benefit gained ....”

I’d like to see Trudeau and George Soros in literal prison garb, though it’ll probably never happen outside of my imagination.
“collateral damage caused by lockdowns, layoffs, bankruptcies, mortgage foreclosures, business closures, supply chain disruptions, missed education days, missed and postponed medical appointments and procedures and other unforeseen impacts far outweigh any benefit gained by brutal and unfair restrictions.”
Ah, but these things are features to Trudeau who is a disciple of Reptilian Overlord Klaus Schwab.
Unlike most other countries, the Founders were smart enough to set up this country as a Constitutional Republic where, via the 10th Amendment, states have powers not given to the federal govt. Although the Dems are trying to take usurp these powers such as the attempt to federalize elections.
Canada is one big Blue State.
At least in my county in Florida, life is normal, almost as if Covid never happened. I can’t speak for other counties where Dems are in control. I’m in a Repub county. No restrictions.
RE: At least in my county in Florida, life is normal, almost as if Covid never happened.
How burdened are the hospitals in Florida?
Treasonous dirtbag media scum!
GO TRUCKERS!
Ain't she a beautiful sight? Convoy!
No idea. I had to visit a hospital in the midst of all this and it seemed quiet to me.
I suspect a lot of people avoid the hospitals if they at all can, until this is over.
As a fellow Canadian I concur that Canada is a small fascist country. From stomping on gun rights to stomping on the Charter of Rights freedom to express. And the newest is that it is fine to convert from heterosexual to gay, but helping someone go from gay to hetero is now against the law.
How I see it. For every conservative in Canada there are two commie totalitarians.
The elites have been shaming the USA for its freedom pretty much since inception of the country.
Life in my part of Alaska has been pretty much back to normal since May 2020.
“How burdened aren the hospitals in Florida?”
How burdened would they be absent CoFear, Federal incentivization of hospitalization and suppression of known effective treatment ?
