I hope some of those US citizens includes the people Trump sent to Ukraine to chat with Zelensky's opposition.

If you're going to post this, you should really mention the full movie that goes with it. I watch it at least once a year, its great. https://youtu.be/3CZQkzoAUSo
Yup. After watching the debate I began predicting another Ford majority and another record-low voter turnout. Glad I was wrong about the latter.
I've always voted NDP, but this was the first time in twenty years of voting that I didn't feel great about it.
My Polish father in law makes it with bacon and it is by far the best fermented food I've ever enjoyed. I'll see if I can get the recipe.
He knows President Trump signed the original deal. But now that he's King Trump, he expects something more in line with the despots he's trying to emulate.
His family has a lot of Canadian ties. His mother is Canadian and his grandfather moved to South Africa from Canada because we weren't apartheid enough.
Republicans have spent my entire life defending the second amendment under the guise that it is the only way to stop a tyrannical government. Not sure why, but I feel like this is should be relevant to Americans these days.
As a Canadian with half their family on either side of the Ontario/Quebec border, this shit has always pissed me off. All this animosity toward Quebec is not only ignorant, but also a driving force behind the separatist movement. The votes failed folks, that means Quebec is very much Canada and wants to stay that way. Accept that and pratice some fucking empathy with your countrymen instead of encouraging civil unrest.
What about Canada? We barely ship any drugs or contraband south and yet 90% of the guns used in violent crime here come from the USA. Most of them come from states that aren't even near the border. More Canadians have been killed by American arms than Americans could ever be killed by Canadian drugs. The problem is the USA wants to act like some paragon of justice while also encouraging instability in their neighbours and refusing to admit their addiction to guns is a cancer to all of civilized society.
We are very much on Trek. For reference, check out season 3 episodes 11 and 12 of Deep Space Nine. These episodes take place on Earth in 2024, roughly six months ago. It was always clearly laid out in Trek that their path to utopia was paved with war and hardship.
Well that and the fact that our first contact in Trek is with a peaceful but vastly superior race. We had everything to gain by creating an alliance and could have easily been wiped out by Klingons or Romulans if we didn't.
I was lead hand for the drill crew of a lagging and shoring company. Boss sent us to start on a site that was completely covered in ice over a foot thick. We told management the site was too icy to work safely, but they insisted. They also insisted on sending us in with a brand new employee that had zero training and was essentially tasked with watching us and taking notes for the bosses. So I'm moving ten ton steel beams in a skid steer on ice and this dipshit new employee wouldn't stop running in and out of my blind spots despite my pleas.
Around lunch time the guy gets clipped by a steel beam I'm moving. Thankfully it only caught his jacket and knocked him over, direct contact would mean broken bones and likely death. But it pissed me off enough that I threw the vehicle keys into a snowbank. Then I went to the site supervisor and explained the situation, causing my employer to get kicked off site. Then I called the Ministry of Labour on my employer ensuring an inspector shows up and fines them. Then I called my boss and quit. The company lost over 1.5 mil between fines and lost contracts, shut down a few months later. Felt really fucking good.
