We'll come back. Once the gestapo, the tariffs, the annexation threats, all mentions of "51st state" and the encouragement of Alberta separatists are GONE.
Forgiveness may be harder to come by.
Can we be the 14th province instead?
We're dying for healthcare down here.
How about this: all states, districts, and territories become provinces. Why not? Doesn't matter if it's a territory or a province, healthcare will come.
But you're going to lose the Electoral College, and will need to find candidates for the Conservative, Liberal, New Democratic, and Green parties at the very least, and probably a few more regional ones as well as the local nutjobs. Hope yiu like the 5 party system!
Forgiveness may be harder to come by.
I mean it definitely will, at the very least because forgiveness can only truly come after the US admits how fucked up it is, and if the ruling class of the US genuinely did that I think it would put Canadians into a state of shock where they wouldn't be able to access longterm emotions like that.
Canadians would just be trying to compute US society not choosing bigotry over admitting being wrong and making material amends and for a time I imagine it will be very disorienting for Canadians.
Can you truly feel forgiveness when you are overcome with vertigo induced by the entity you are trying to forgive?
Just to be clear, those border businesses voted for this idiot fuck and will do so in the next election and every one thereafter.
Learn a lesson? Admit a wrong? Never.
My schadenfreude is severely mitigated by the fact that it is my genuine belief many of these rural areas in the US are collapsing and destroying the lives of everybody there, including all the people who DIDN'T want this.
I mean yeah fuck em, but also it doesn't really do it for me to say that, I'm just sad.
No, I’m with ya. I just wish everyone could stop being so incredibly stupid.
