i remember seeing a chart that said the boomers overwhelmingly said that trump was their biggest issue during the election. And videos of Carney supporters going up and marching for "elbows up" were mainly white liberal boomers. The only boomers that are conservative (and chill in general) are in Western Canada, usually centered in places that vote conservative anyways.
Canada straight up doesn't have a culture anymore, due to Canada being a "post-national state" and the Quiet Revolution destroying most of french canadian culture outside the language. So there's nothing holding Alberta down culturally. By default alberta will have more of a culture than the rest of Canada, even if it was really only "gas and oil". Still unlikely for Independence to happen for the foreseeable future, but it would be funny if we somehow did gain independence in the next few years, and even more so, if we miraculously remained independent instead of joining the USA.
People really overlook how much Quebec culture has really become just about language post-Quiet Revolution, and often forget that it was essentially a clerical state beforehand where nearly all elements of French Canadian society were directed by the church, (which did do its part in preserving family structures and ensuring French demographic supremacy over the Anglos with its 'revenge of the cradle' policies ironically enough).
Boomers and Gen X have this very strange but unmovable belief that "CANADA GUD AMERICA BAD" but can never actually tell you why. Only that it is so and nuh uh.
Oh boy, so now they're making second class citizen status more overt. Can't wait to see public or otherwise owned land ceded to chugs who will deface it.
I laugh whenever Quebec tries to LARP as based.
Don't forget the church burnings and attacks. In a way they operate similar to how the ANC operates in South Africa, a dual pronged legal and terroristic assault.
It's marxism applied to all facets of life. Everything is Oppressor v Oppressed.
I just wonder how poorly they'll run "their" new land, probably as poorly as Zimbabwe, SA, or even the wells mr.beast built in Africa.
Fob immigrants are now learning French in order to move Quebec (they'll get what they voted for), alongside all the middle easterns and Africans who speak French. Also like another user said earlier, the Catholic Church in Quebec is irrelevant and whenever they do something, it's to house migrants in Canada. Just like many churches do in places like Europe or even the USA. Ironically the most religious places in Canada are also the most liberal and woke, like Quebec or Atlantic Canada. While on the other hand Western Canada is more conservative (outside urban B.C) while also being less religious.
Also seeing Mississauga raising the Indian flag for Indian independence day is a big black pill.
They'll heavily undersell how many immigrants there are in Canada (though that's expected). I could see a suprise huge decline of white Canadians even Quebec as they allow anyone who speaks French in there and because their churches help house immigrants. I also won't be surprised if there's more regional Indians in Canada than back in India or Pakistan.
Isn't this common knowledge? I've been hearing murmurings about this since at least 2018 or 2019 - I'm pretty sure the government 'lost track' sometime in the mid-2010s, but obviously the issue has exacerbated since then. It makes more sense if you look at the number of government workers in the immigration department versus the number of immigrants; it's something like 12-13 thousand employees in charge of millions and millions of immigrants. Naturally, they'd lose track sooner or later.
The source of the rot is the FPTP system we have here.
I've heard before that up to two year prior no one predicted the dissolution of the USSR.
Yes, I'm surprised I failed to mention that one. So much shit happens these days, the memory hole is real. Big difference here being here is I assume the black outnumber the whites in South Africa, obviously in Canada the natives remain a much smaller and isolated minority.
Well they always used to say healthcare, but I haven't heard any bragging about that lately. That was always paired it with Americans being ignorant and uneducated, something I have always found to be a very snobby and annoying superiority complex
I think it's still a dice roll at this point. Carney was made by Trump simply talking shit, he can be broken by Trump. What'll happen when or if Trump actually follows through with anything, like tearing or changing up the USMCA (if he can even do that) is yet to be seen.
At least 20%
To be blunt, I don't find this Canada going any lower, but that's because this moment's already happened with China. Remember Trudeau basically getting soft-shamed by Xi Xinping a few years ago? Canada's been farming for this for a while and this may be them reconsidering who they're trying to attach to.
I can back this up. The USSR was good at one thing. Propaganda. Lazerpig's a bit cringe, but the Lazerpig Loop is independently correct from what I know of foreign policy, and our main way of seeing the USSR's "development" given all those layers of propaganda amounted to military displays.
WestJet Chads stay winning
Lol love how that commentator is combining Peter Zeihan with Zohran Mamdani
I will be siding with Pakistan as I want to them to nuke India.
Messing with that sacred cow would probably kill any federal politician's career.
