And then sending those "perfect" children off to die in their many wars.

I hate cars as much as the next person here, but we know next to nothing about this person other than a single sentence statement from the police. And also charges haven't been laid yet because the investigation is still ongoing and likely hasn't been sent to the crown counsel yet.

Firstly - They probably grew up or came into voting age under a Trudeau government. They don't know what it's like to live under an awful Conservative government. They also blame the federal government for things outside of its control.

Secondly - Younger people are superglued to social media which is a completely unchecked and unregulated IV-shot of manipulation and disinformation.

Thirdly - Political education is extremely poor. People simply do not understand how government works at any level and they don't care to know. BC's last provincial election saw a sizeable amount of people vote for the BCCons party because they wanted to get rid of Trudeau... in a provincial election. People blame governments for things they cannot control and demand governments to fix things that they cannot.

Fourthly - Right wing groups are intentionally targeting disenfranchised youth, particularly young men. To say we are going to deal with a new generation of ultra-toxic masculinity is an understatement, but that mentality usually leans right.

Depending on how the remaster goes, Skyblivion might still be the better game.

Singh has to go if the NDP ever wants to have even a shred of hope of being competitive in the polls again.

I don't even think he's a bad politician per se, but it's obvious he is not resonating with Canadians and hasn't for years.

Great way to show how much integrity and honesty you have. Cowards.

Guessing someone told Trump to back off because his meddling is costing the Conservatives the election.

I don't think it will help though. He repeatedly threatened war on Canada. That's not something you just pretend never happened.

I wish these people would just move down there instead of dragging the rest of us with them into their pit of misery.

I am very glad that Canadians are uniting and sticking up for their local businesses like never before, but we cannot lose sight of what the real danger is.

The US is very unlikely to launch a physical invasion. It would be extremely foolish for numerous reasons, chief of them being our massive unprotected border and how our major urban centres are right beside US cities. We are not a country on the other side of the globe.

No, the real danger is the US economically weakening us and putting us into a position where we are forced to capitulate much like Mexico. Canada does have leverage over the US but that only remains if we protect our industries which make up our economic backbone. Donald placed a 250% tariff on Canadian dairy which, on paper, seems pointless because the US doesn't really buy any Canadian dairy. But it does send a message that he knows dairy is a protected industry in Canada and he wants to attack it.

It is so important that we have leaders willing to protect these industries and be willing to spend money to expand them.

In some ways he already is. I will give a few examples:

• The Conservative party in Canada was set to win a historic landslide majority victory in the upcoming elections. Their embracing of US-styled politics combined with Canadians feeling more united than ever has lead to them absolutely cratering in the polls so badly that the incumbent party is polling ahead in some polls. It is now being considered as potentially one of the worst election blunders in Canadian history. Canadians are cheering on local brands and production and are very warm to the idea of closer ties with Europe and the UK.

• President Zelenskyy is being heralded as a leader and hero of Ukrainian and European freedom and is seen as a model of just and honest leadership. Despite what Trump's supporters think, many Americans still support Ukraine and Zelenskyy.

• Prime Minister Starmer of the UK has united parliament, including their opposition, for increased support of Ukraine and European security and sovereignty. It is a huge shift from where they stood during the Brexit days.

• The EU is currently working on rearmament plans to promote domestic production of arms and security measures. Canada appears to be interested in this and I imagine other countries will eventually be too. The era of everyone buying American arms is coming to an end.

• Expanding on the last point more broadly: The US has shown to the world it is an unreliable partner and ally and the boycotts of American goods and services are spreading fast across its former allies. For example, there is a full on nation-wide boycott of American products in Canada right now and it is costing the Americans billions of dollars.

• The days of tip-toeing around Russia for the sake of political niceties is over. Major nation leaders are now calling out Russia for being a bloodthirsty dictatorship and accusing Trump of being a Russian plant. We need more than this, but this is a good start. Such open challenges to fascism would never have flown 5+ years ago. The first step to fighting fascism is to recognise it exists and identifying it as a threat.

Firstly, I'd imagine China is pleased to see the US becoming weaker on the world stage. At least, in the long term.

But, secondly, China has its own problems at home right now and the US, which is about to have a lot less spending power, is a huge customer of China's. Xi is likely going to take a "wait and see" approach and assess the shifting situation. Any amount of China and Russia getting close would likely be purely from an "enemy of my enemy is my friend" perspective and I doubt it would last. None of the major powers mingle for very long before stepping on each other's feet.

Xi isn't stupid. I'm sure he's well aware that Putin would betray him in an instant for power and that Trump is both a Russian asset and a moron.

"failed foreign economies"

Lol. Lmao, even.

Absolute clown.
