    Threatening a foreign citizen (and former PM no less) with

    1. Invasion of his home country
    2. Expelling him from that country
    3. Forcing him into manual labor in another country (which also is currently independent)

    That is insane, even as a joke.

        I find it hilarious that the little bitch-boy thinks he has any ground to speak to a respected world leader who served as PM for just shy of a decade.

        Also, Trudeau in all his good-natured gentleness would absolutely fuck Shapiro up one-on-one.

      It’s always “I’m just joking bro” to find the other shitty people who “get the joke” until it’s no longer a joke.

    She wants to take your health care, and turn it into profit share, and split it up with P-Pierre, and that ain’t fuckin right. She’s turned into a MAGA hag, she’s turned against our Maple Flag, vote against this traitor slag.

      Is there no law or anything like this in place? Why hasn’t our government called her out on all her actions? She’s suppose to be representing Canada and doing what’s best for Alberta and Canada. She’s literally popping over there and openly committing treason. There’s no other way to see this.

        I don’t actually think there’s a rule against speaking against Canada (nor would most want there be). IANAL, but from a legal perspective I think there’d be a better case for counseling the crime of election interference.

    There are genuinely intellectual conservatives but the oligarchic media intentionally prop up pseudointellectuals to further dumb down the population. And I guess it is working.

      Let us all remember that when the Soviet Union fell, they did not end the Cold War, they just changed tactics.

      It’s well known that their most effective tactic for destabilizing a nation is to pour resources into boosting both sides of every debate or social issue, this poisons the well so nobody knows what’s real and just defaults to whatever the controlling party says is real. It’s an astoundingly effective tactic for killing the spread of news and information that people could use to organize, and sowing infighting and distrust between potential oppositional groups.

      They are doing a very similar tactic right now, by boosting absurdism like the whole narrative of an “armed takeover of Canada” as if that’s even possibly a thing. Casual browsers know somewhere in the back of their mind that it’s absurdism, but they hang on every word because it’s sensational.

      This is WWE theater. Like the whole administration since the beginning, it’s designed to spin stories to keep dumb fucks engaged and wondering what’s going to happen next, simultaneously believing in the stories but also knowing logically it’s not true. Literally the same cognitive dissonance that made us have to argue with our friends back in the 90’s that no, the World Wrestling Federation is NOT employing actual necromancers, that no, it’s not a real sport, no the performers would not be allowed to bring swords and weapons into the ring if it was real.

      USA has no actual intention of taking over countries like Canada and Panama, they just want to make some huge distraction and sensational story, so that when they change interest rates or deregulate some banking laws, nobody will notice. We’ll all be here arguing with each other if it’s even possible for the USA to “take over” a neighboring nation, with the same earnestness that we used to explain that using a steel chair in a sporting event could be considered disqualifying in normal circumstances.

      This isn’t to say the rhetoric isn’t dangerous, but what they’re doing financially is going to be far more damaging to our actual future in America.

        Under almost any other administration, I’d agree with you, but Trump either isn’t thinking rationally or seriously misunderstands reality; his behavior repeatedly goes against his own interests.

      Yea and the whole Trump “He’s not my kind of guy” thing screams like a lie to get Canadians to think Skippy isn’t affiliated with Trump. But Skippy meeting with the family that owns the largest chain of for-profit hospitals is what scares me the most. If he wins, he’ll push either an American system, or more likely a 2 tier system. Either way we get fucked.
