        You did not read the article. This is WAY beyond being a dumb redneck. This is systematic dismantling of our entire system of government, to maintain the oligarchy and ruling class in perpetuity.

          While much less embedded in Canada, the same forces that are pushing Project2025 in the US are also trying to do the same here in Canada. So far they’re not nearly as advanced, and they are still facing strong pushback on their regressive plan, but they are still trying. That shit is leaking over the border.

          Fortunately, for now, Canada is nowhere near as far down that fascist path as the US is.

          But if you’re trying to escape it, I would recommend against Alberta.

            What’s the justification (yes I know, logic might not be a factor).

            But some argue that US was always a Christian stage but Canada clearly never was.

            Edit: turns out nope, Canada was founded on similar principles…

            Wtf mate.

          Almost all our media was bought up by right wing American think tanks over the last decade, so it won’t be long before that stuff makes it here too

      Yes, USA is in a for a really bad time, and Canada definitely looks better in comparison. And while it is, as a Canadian I still fantasize about trying to move to europe. Grass is always greener.

      Just don’t expect to escape all the nonsense automatically by coming here because for all we know we’re just lagging behind a few years. I have had the disspointing experiences of finding some of my Canadian friends were in favour of the Trump victory.

      And then the housing prices.
