Good. Fuck ‘em. I stopped giving a shit about what the us thinks when they elected the Talking Asshole. (the first time, not the absolutely fucking unbelievable second time)
Whelp, at least it’s a majority.
This is great.
The other petition i would gladly sign is to stop using MS Azure cloud for all of Canada’s confidential / protected information. Microsoft has already admitted to the EU that they would hand over any country’s data if ordered to do so by the USA - even when that data is stored outside if the US. Microsoft is not that different from Huawei, it turns out
Not the people’s permission. Canadians overwhelmingly disapprove of Trump’s actions towards Greenland. I think Carney is being cautious, but if he fails to support Greenland he will be removed from power. He only has a minority government.
Maybe Carney is buying time. The economy has to be on good footing first; he has a minority government and needs to keep his support up. Only about 1/3 of Canadians are currently awake to the threat posed by Fascist America, but everyone cares about jobs and prices. A military buildup is underway in Canada but it will take time. As Canada gets stronger and breaks away economically from the USA, the Americans will get weaker. Trump is squandering resources threatening countries on every continent. The US navy doesn’t know if it should be in the middle east or the Gulf of Mexico or the North Atlantic. His government is totally incompetent on economic matters - his trade war will ultimately hurt the US worse than the rest of the world. When the AI bubble pops, the US economy is gonna be fucked. I think that Carney doesn’t want to interrupt Trump as he is digging his own grave. Still, though, I would like Carney to be unequivocal in his support for Greenland and our remaining allies.
I think that if every non-US NATO country put boots on the ground in Greenland, Trump would stay the fuck away. He is a coward - he knows that if the rest of us stand together, it would be an ugly fight that would benefit no one. On the other hand, the only way the US wins cleanly in Greenland is if we fail to stand together. It would be good training too, but I think sending (a few of) our troops to Greenland could prevent the war.
100% agree. Each remaining democracy in the world is weak on its own, but even without the US, NATO is a superpower. We need to stand with Greenland.
I’m watching Minnesota every day. Americans are starting to wake up. There are more people opposed to Trump than supporting him - this will end when the opposition stands together.
50 troops to show solidarity with non-US NATO members would not leave us defenseless. Presenting a united front would do more to deter the states than actual violence.
I know you’re being sarcastic but you could totally be a poilievre speech writer.
Man, you nailed it. Feeling ashamed of my country today. Don’t know why you’re getting downvoted.
If you’re a coward and a fool, maybe.
What a disgrace for Canada. Once again, my country makes me feel ashamed.
I was getting ready to rant until you mentioned Terraria. Then I read the last line of your post.
Shoot, if I’m playing against the computer I use the game the way I want. It’s not cheating if your opponent is non-sentient.
I especially feel that way in games where ridiculous stuff happens at random (e.g. Rimworld). If I’m 2h into building a new colony and somehow get wiped out by 1 rabid squirrel, I curse, laugh my ass off for a minute, then load an autosave.
Hmm. I’ll take Canada’s stagnation over america’s precipitous decline any day.
China is not an option, but a reality. I wasn’t consulted when people started buying massive amounts of cheap crap from china. Now, we are reliant on them for many things. Of course i agree that we should deal preferentially deal with democracies. Your strawman arguments are tiresome.
I love this one from Coriolanus:
For you, be that you are, long, and your misery increase with your age!
