Canada is a failed state

[zzzten]

Had a really depressing convo with my boomer neighbour he's a good salt of the earth guy in general so I was able to refrain myself from political sperging all over him. But he was literally spouting chinese propaganda word for word. Telling me trump can never reshore manufacturing , that he nearly pissed himself watching the CCP AI of fat americans working in a chinese style sweatshop. (this guy himself is 80 pounds overweight with a big ol beer belly) Saying how are we going to afford any cheap plastic consumerable if there made in America. That Canada should shut off our oil and hydroelectricity to the states.

The really depressing part is the dude is just some retired tradesmen from Chrysler not some smug overeducated bugperson. We really are cooked as a country.

The united states is the global source for money while china is the source for "things".
In order to make money, all you need is a printing press, and china has that shit on lock. Their banks are under the control of their government.
Meanwhile, the united states needs to rebuild its factories, hire workers, and set up a supply chain. This is much more complicated than printing money. Also, they'll be competing against chinese slave labour if they ever try to sell abroad. AND they have to deal with bankers that aren't beholden to their government. In fact, the banks control the government in the united states.

Given the united states threatened to annex canada. Why shouldn't canada cut off support to the states?

I think that boomer you're making fun of knows what he's talking about.

Edit* The united states cannot reshore manufacturing, not because americans can't do the job, but corporations will not pay the overhead necessary to keep manufacturing in america, when they can pay children in india 12 cents an hour. This isn't a CCP talking point. This is just modern day economics.

0/10 not even Carney ordering around Jeet slaves at Timmies while burning your coffee and fucking up your farmers wrap

I must confess as a race traitor that I've been buying & enjoying the Farmer's Wraps at Singh Hortons once a month or so when I'm on the road.

It doesn't even bother me that the humble Farmer's breakfast has no logical consistency being wrapped in a tortilla instead of on a tea biscuit or an English muffin.

Or why the fuck there's a "hashbrown" contained within.

Or again, why the "Farmer's" wrap is smothered in Chipotle sauce.

They are delicious and I don't care who knows it.

I am fighting the man though in my small way by only picking them up when the 2 for $7 special is going.

In past elections how long did it take for the count to start and for the election to be called?

Normally it's called by midnight to 2 am at the end of election day

Well I guess I'll have to wait until Tuesday to find out if there was last minute shenanigans

I'm not keeping a close look, but if you are serious: where did you notice?

I don't know why I keep up with the election and politics. Cons or libs, it's not going to fundamentally change day to day life.

The tariffs are nuking cross border trade. Our company has lost a lot of the transient business and reliable contracts are ordering less. Some of our US customers have already gone out of business or sold to some giant conglomerate. Regardless of what people want or what Trump says, the end result will be a further consolidation of economic power to the few.

When Doug Ford in Ontario called his retarded "tariff" snap election in February, all of the major networks officially declared a PC majority victory around 9:15 pm EST after the polls closed when not a single official counted vote had yet been posted publicly.

Four days out, these are my predictions, last until election day.

-. Voter turnout will be above 70% at the very least

-. Both of the major parties will be just at the borderline of 40% support

-. I believe that at this point it will be a minority government for either the liberals or the conservatives

-. No matter who wins, Mark Carney and Pierre Poilievre will stay on as the leader of their respective party for at least one extra term.

-. The NDP Finally kicks out Jagmeet Singh after 2 mediocre elections and one awful one, losing his own seat will cushion the blow. I still believe that they reach 12 seats as their best case scenario

-. The BQ loses seats, but due to Blanchet's personal approval ratings he can choose whether or not to stay on.

-. The green party will lose both of their seats and the PPC will once again fail to win anything.

-. Irregardless of who wins, there will be civil unrest due to how polarized this election is.

Race traitors get the cauldron first.

I think a high GOTV turnout could bode quite well for the Conservatives. The geriatrics already show up every vote so the increase is going to be made up of younger more infrequent voters. Could also potentially see an inverse of the voter 'efficiency' issue that the Libs have cashed in on the last few elections, running up the TDS vote in the Toronto and Montreal cesspits while losing more rural areas by slimmer margins.

It also seems like there might be some interesting signals being given off in BC, both Pierre and Carney are rushing to Vancouver Island for campaigning.

In a stunning result Vancouver island has unanimously voted for the Bloc Québécois

BC becoming important due to NDP Collapse might actually decide things this time, i expect a similar scenario of what happened in the 2024 election where the Conservatives and NDP basically divided up the ridings equally while the greens had one or two to play spoiler

 

[Not Who You Think]

Is the Canadian parliament still prorogued?

All I can find are old articles saying it was supposed to last until March.
