Conservatives always have such a problem with science, and facts in general.

Fascism is a near-inevitable outcome of poorly checked capitalism, helped along by the poverty arising from it, along with the hierarchical ideals of corporarist environments. So yes, fascism is a symptom, and the cause is not easily solved, so the symptom has to be treated. Education, especially in critical thinking, and ideally before exposure to the fairy tales of popluar religions, alleviation of poverty, and, unfortunately, the culling of those who prove themselves too committed to fascist ideals are all part of the medium term mitigation. Since oligarchs and corporatists tend to resist these things, they have to be counteracted, disconnected from their power base, assets, and financial tools. Since that’s also unlikely to happen in North America, we’re looking at an unpleasant future.

Isn’t most of Canada already carved up by corporations. It seems like First Nations, a couple of NDP provinces, and some leftover crown corps are all that’s keeping us from being a full corporatocracy.

It might be because people in Geneva get nervous when Canadians get into a war.

If there’s a kill switch it can be hacked. If we want to fight someone the fascists don’t want us to, they can use the kill switch. On top of that more money to an enemy, and the US is most certainly currently that, is tactically stupid.

The US has never been a stabilizing democracy. They have been one of the foremost instigators of destabilization for almost a century. And the research is also clear that US citizens’ majority policy concerns only get addressed if they align with corporate policy concerns. So neither stabilizing, nor an actual democracy.

My knee-jerk “um actually” response aside, China’s ability to strategize at long time horizons lends credence to some of his points. For long-term survival, Canada will need to build multiple independent tradepartnerships to remove any single points of failure.

They renamed the SkyDome?

It’s reaching the point where we’re going to need to start boycotting Carney’s corporate backers, too. I would love to know who actually ghost wrote bill C22.

So, basically, stalking for the purposes of either blackmail or exposure. Just politics. I guess that means other parties can do it to Doug, too?

Someone is working very hard with the UCP to drive a wedge into Canadian unity and sovereignty. I would love to know who, specifically, is doing that, and how.

Is that correct: CSIS briefed them for over 21 years and they didn’t open an investigation before 2023?

Looks like an attempted gateway to privatization.

Some of us were ahead of the curve, I guess. My entire family has been the second version my whole life.

And not disinformation, destabilization, and technological coercion from the fascists to the south?!

Thank you. This is interesting information.

would either of you care to share unbiased evidence supporting your statements?

Cory Morgan and the third-party advertising organization named Pathway to Independence should send Ottawa a message by choosing MAID.

Don’t forget municipal governments getting away with all sorts of crap and infrastructure neglect by blaming both the province and the feds.

Make the fine a percentage of voting stock for each infraction. Too many infractions and a perpetrator has voluntarily donated their organization to the country it violated.

Looks like a literary allusion to T.S. Eliot to me. Something a highly literate (human) writer might find as a poetic turn of phrase. I could see how people who aren’t as widely read might think it looks like AI instead of a reference to classic literature.
