I've been saying Canada is just Diet US. Credit where it's due, they elected the lesser dumbass. Also, healthcare. Good on y'all. Obviously Canada is better than the US but my fellow Americans act like it's the promised land or something. The cost of living is still to damn high, and they still have the same right-wing populist idiots we have. Also, I get our bills and coins suck. Dead old white man and all but how is the fucking royals supposed to be better? I think fascist monarchs are way worse. To any Canadians offended by this, please don't be. It was not my intent to offend you and I very much realize I am throwing stones from a glass house here. Love you guys!

my fellow Americans act like it's the promised land or something.

So do lemmy Canadians.

I've been saying this. Honestly, if the US ever goes full 1930s-Germany they're going to be our Poland. I wouldn't even want to move there if I have to leave, at least not long-term.

Oh "we" didn't. Carney is right there on camera with the Maxwell/Epstein/Trump/Clinton set, dudes sister in law is Ghislaine's best friend, connected to British nobility, cousin to our previous prime minister, the whole "conspiracy" is on the fucking wikipedia pages about them. I haven't had health insurance in 9 years. It's provincial, not federal, despite my countrymen that think it's a "right" because of rhetoric, not reality.
