  1. First Amendment to the threshold of Brandenburg v. Ohio ; American freedom FTW if Canadian lefties can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen
  2. Melanie Joly should go back to pole dancing in Gatineau, she is a qt, no doubt, thus why Trudeau was banging her until his wife left him
  3. that's all that I would advocate for at this juncture, not for Canada, just for the troops in the ranks, having served through the Decade of Darkness, I know what it's like to be a troop desperately trying to hold on as Canada throws you to the wolves, so I will still vote for whomever I think is going to spend the most on the military, ironically tho, I think that would actually be the Liberals because in fact, nobody spent more on the military in the last twenty years than Paul Martin & Justin Trudeau Stephen Harper had his big chance, but all I got out of that was TAPV, 6 AOPS & 2 AORs ; meh Justin Trudeau has actually ordered more kit in the last year than Canada has ordered in decades, just to appease the Americans of course, but that is in fact the only reason Canada ever buys kit nobody has done more to prod Canada into more military spending than Donald Trump, Canada couldn't have cared less about national security until Donald Trump came along; chaos is a ladder
  4. Indeed, but that was the last straw for me, after decades of fighting against it, I simply ran out of fervour for the fight, first of all when Trudeau said Post National State with no core identity ; I didn't have an argument against that, I had to concede that it was true, then "White Supremacist Genocide !" broke the back, Canadians did not resist that, I looked around and saw that Canadians were not going to fight that, Victoria Hanover & John MacDonald torn down into the mire, the colours at half mast for six months, and the overwhelming majority of the Canadian population just shrugged, that was the threshold where I had to concede; okay, Canada, you win, enjoy your comeuppance when it comes, but me, I'm moving on from trying to save you from yourselves
  5. I never endorsed Trump and I did not vote for him, I've known MAGA Republicans long before Trump showed up and called it MAGA I've known MAGA Republicans since they were still Democrats railing against George W. Bush this movement has been coalescing for a generation now, I first encountered it twenty years ago, they've always rejected me as being a "Neocon" because I am a Reaganite / Thacherite, child of the Cold War, the main dispute therein was that they were protectionists and I was a free trader, I've been arguing against MAGA Republican protectionism for almost two decades, but there was no dissuading them, they were utterly committed to it, they were crazy for tariffs before Trump showed up and jumped on the bandwagon, I observed how they began to see Putin as an ally and Europe as the enemy, furthermore I observed them becoming increasingly hostile towards Canada, there was literally nobody on earth, not even any Democrat, whom they despised more than Justin Trudeau, so none of this which is happening now is surprising to me, it's not even Trump who is driving it, rather he is just pandering to his base
  6. Canada has burned everything I ever swore to defend and uphold with my life as necessary, to the ground as a result I no longer feel anything in my heart for Canada, there's no coming back from that, it's not my Canada anymore I don't even watch hockey anymore, I don't even root for the Leafs anymore, Canada is the Post National State now, merely a tax jurisdiction in a globalized economy and it was Canada which imposed those terms upon me, if others are keen to kill & die for American Woke Progressivism ; Remember Sankofa Square ? be my guest, it's not my problem
  7. I'm not part of this collective, whatever it is you believe it to be, I did in effect what Canada told me to do ; stop being British, we're not British anymore, become a Globalized citizen, Citoyen du Monde now all of a sudden Canada wants to take that back ? Suddenly Canada is waving the War of 1812 in my face ? sorry, Canada; too late now
  8. only because there are no Republicans in Canada, otherwise, Canada is in effect already the 51st State, Canada is simply a Democrat Party Blue State therein, Canadians & Democrats are indistinguishable from each other
  9. Canada doesn't have a national identity, Canada was British, then when the British Empire collapsed, Canada adopted an American identity Canada's identity since the 1970's is to be the Wokest most Progressive virtue signalling state on earth, and that was all imported from American universities,
  10. no need to apologize, I'm a disagreeable person by nature but Canada was dependant on America & Britain to do all that, Canada did not win the war singlehandedly, Canada was a bit player, Canada did nothing on its own, Canada did everything under British command, funded by America even Britain was dwarfed in the end, by the Americans & Soviets,
  11. I'm not particularly concerned about it, I grew up in the Globalized Post National State in downtown Toronto, so I've never relied on Canadian industrial output for my prosperity, frankly, Toronto is already like the 51st State right now, the most American place in all of Canada, they tore down Queen Victoria & John A. MacDonald in favour of Sankofa Square, so what is it that I would even be fighting against the Americans for ?
  12. you can't spend decades failing to do these things, then all of a sudden in a crisis turn that ship around on a dime, just to undo the damage to the Canadian military, that would take 20 years of spending 5% GDP on defence and it would require buying many billions of dollars worth of kit from the Americans to do so, the Europeans don't actually have the defence industrial capacity to save themselves and save Canada too Canada is not a strong country and never was, all of Canada's strength flowed from the British Empire, why do you think Canadians fought the World Wars ? Canada had to save the Empire to save itself
  13. again, think about Poland in the Second World War ; sometimes you're just in the wrong place at the wrong time ; with no good options for fighting, Canada is in no man's land between America & China, like Poland was caught between Germany & Russia, I don't have a solution to that problem ; it's Kobayashi Maru basically Canada will just have to hope that America changes course at some point soon
  14. America has the power to destroy Canada, without using any military force at all, doesn't matter how butt hurt Canadians are about that fact, Canada's only hope is to find a way to appease the Americans, otherwise, it's like being Poland in the Second World War ; there's no way to fight and win
  15. even if Canada had the political will and industrial capacity to pull that off, which it doesn't, that would be insignificant in comparison to exporting into the $27 trillion American economy,
  16. that's the big difference, Typhoon is $15,000 per flight hour, F-35 is $30,000 the infrastructure, software and Electronic Intelligence gathering required to maintain Stealth ; that's where the money goes, ultimately, the F-35 is highly specialized, it's a bomber designed to penetrate enemy air defences, which is not that relevant to the defence of Canada, you don't need a single engine stealth bomber to defend the Arctic, if anything, F-35 is a liability in that role, the most important thing to the defence of Canada, to include the Arctic ; is boots on the ground, if Canada was serious, the navy would be going all in nuclear attack submarines, to defend the maritime approaches and trade on the high seas, while maintaining a large army capable of rapidly deploying to occupy Canadian territory, in terms of air power to drop bombs, drones are becoming the arm of decision there, neither the Russian nor Ukrainian air forces are flying over each others territory, both sides are now relying on drones to launch bombing attacks
  17. all investment in Canada has come to a screeching halt already, every firm considering decamping to the United States, and the Republicans haven't even started the war yet, merely threatening so far
  18. Republicans mass murdered over 300,000 fellow Americans in the Civil War, just think what they'd do to Canada
  19. the Liberals are the Natural Governing Party in Canada, it was really only Justin Trudeau whom discredited them,
  20. while leaving Canada exposed to being set upon by the Russians and more significantly the Chinese, Pyrrhic Victory
  21. bingo. the leftists would of course be outraged if the power of the Crown was employed against them in this fashion, but they are perfectly happy to employ any means available to them to silence their critics, this is what happens if you don't have a First Amendment to the threshold of Brandenburg v. Ohio
  22. I don't recognize the Canadian Prime Minister as my leader ; merely a glorified civil servant
  23. it's not an American Presidential Election, this being Canada, I vote by Westminster Parliamentary Supremacy, which is for whichever MP I think will serve me best, regardless of party affiliation, let that local affiliation writ large determine whom forms HM Government, otherwise, you might as well just become the 51st State ; in for a penny in for a pound I don't rely upon Canadian industry for my prosperity, so I will just go with market forces wherever they lead me as you say ; free trader
  24. but it's not just tariffs in a vacuum, it's tariffs, plus deregulation, plus tax cuts, even just the threat of tariffs has brought all investment in Canada to a halt, this war is only a month old, America hasn't even started to drop its bombs yet, and already Canada is reeling
  25. the threat of tariffs alone is not enough to break Canada, but when you combine the threat of tariffs, with widespread deregulation, and tax cuts, Woke Trans Green Canada is royally screwed
