      Crazy thing is, up until 2024, Canada was proud to be socialist. But you’re right; a LOT of the US culture slops across the border. Happened during the McCarthy years too.

        Huh? Canada has not been socialist at any time I can remember.

          On one hand, we’re quite socialist compared to the states. On the other hand, I think the last time we as a country could be said to be proud of what socialist things we do have is near a century ago.

        I mean, that’s our biggest issue with dealing with conservatives. It’s all bullshit culture war crap coming from down south.
