And trust me, it is far easier to travel. Is it all a facade though? Iran was a nice place before the revolution. Where could you walk freely in Iran, Iraq or Syria now? Maybe in certain parts of the major cities, but would you try your luck in small-town ME? There's open warfare in Europe, including Nazis, and citizens are divided in their support. We just experienced vax-fascism in Canada, I never thought I'd see anything like that in my lifetime. The PM called 6M unvaxxed Canadians "misogynists and racists": how much further can we go down that road? Drug cartels rival governmental authority in a lot of regions south of the US. The US is experiencing a dangerous level of division along racial and political lines that is absurd. The Dems actually endorsed death threats against the president, protests outside of SCJ's homes, and violent riots that caused billions of dollars in damages. I think that it's ridiculous to think that we are in a good place right now. It's quite fair to say that "things are in sharp decline", and pretending that it isn't is in no way beneficial.

The fact that Israel can and has got along with a number of its neighbours for decades (even former enemies) proves that the sweeping generalizations are attractive heuristics but that don’t really hold water. OK, since the 7th century and before that, someone else. Even decried in the old testament. Sorry you missed the point. Point was Jews and Arabs/Muslims/Egyptians/etc have been at each other for millennia. Israel has not gotten along with its neighbours at all, no generalizations.

Actually, as a foreigner myself I like to think we don’t have a particular problem with excess saliva. If Trump wins we’ll all have far bigger worries than whether Canada stays in NATO or not. The US as we know it may be doomed and with it freedom here, there and everywhere. In the near future, please God Trumpless, I’d say Americans will be a lot more interested in our ability to better control wildfires and the smoke therefrom than in GDP percentages on military spending. I see all humans as innately savage. Each generation must struggle against the beast within, which is why liberal democracy is such a fragile, rare and unlikely phenomenon in human history. To paraphrase, it is ours if we can keep it. Yes, there’s an enemy or two coming over the hill but he’s also inside the house already. If you want to see bigger worries, we all better hope that senile old Joey BiDumb does not win the next election. That old fool has pretty much destroyed America. I do not understand as to why people like you have this hatred for Donald Trump. You do not even know the guy personally. What has Trump done to you or the rest of the world that makes you believe that it would be a bigger worry for you and the world? So, I guess in the next Canadian election, conservative Pierre Polievre will be a big worry for you if he wins the next election in Canada, right? As if the dictator clown in Ottawa has not done that to Canada already. ? Quote

One can say he failed or is even incompetent without resorting to lie comments like this. He even cares about Alberta. Hardly. He primarily cares about himself, to say otherwise is a lie. I don't see a guy motivated by their dedication to this country, sorry, I see a narcissist and a power-seeker. Being PM is a vehicle to enlarge his power and ego. People who care about their democracy more than themselves don't get wrapped up in endless ethics violations. They don't let China muck around in our elections, they don't pressure the AG to do crooked things, they don't kick the AG out of their party when they say no.

Well one could mention Afghanis that helped our military out during the war are still waiting in hiding in Pakistan. And our government has done nothing to help...why is it a few years back we took in so many Muslim persons from around the globe, and cut back on numbers from other countries, thats being selective, go back though our history and it also shows we are very selective... There are several ways to get into the country, Buy your way in, so what we are saying is poor people you do not qualify here...you can be related to already Canadians, once again we are being selective, claim your LGBTQ and your application gets fast tracked, Have a job qualification we are in need of, you get fast tracked...

I judge a man by their actions. We've had 8 years plus a previous lifetime of behaviour to witness his. His motivations aren't difficult to perceive IMO. I call it a thesis rather than a guess. There's lots of evidence I can use to back up my thesis, and like any opinion you or anyone can make counter-arguments. The good of the country is not his primary motivation for public service IMO. I'm not saying he hasn't tried doing good things for Canada or Canadians. This is the truth as I perceive it, and the truth is always useful, regardless of whether or not it agrees with what the "chuds" also say. As you know, other people's opinions are not relevant to my own. If you disagree with my opinion then tell me why i'm wrong.
