Fun fact: veterans of the war were also functionally abandoned by the US gov and many of them headed west, creating most of the havoc that first nations there suffered.

In now-Alberta, Treaty 7 was created and done explicitly because of them creating poisoned whiskey and attacking, raping and pillaging from first nations in now-Canada. The RCMP were created as a means to prevent the attacks.

That, and AIs are the privatization and commodification of human knowledge.

They fed them the internet, then made it harder to find anything on it without going through them.

Now they are feeding them books, including rare copies, then destroying the books.

Eh, I can forgive some of the extension.
Almost all of the third movie is the battle of the five armies, which is ~ a single page in the book.

Likewise they show Gandalf et al fighting Sauron, which isnt shown in the books, but is also extremely important for Saruman as it shows that he was once good. IIRC it was actually a request from Christopher Lee himself to show it and show pre-downfall Saruman.

Yeah but now they are using the threat of AI to suppress US salaries.

You think history students have it bad.

Imagine lawyers post-Trump. Well, according to established case law minus 2025-2029...

Remember that all of the "Carney gonna surrender" newspapers are US owned.

Time for a national conversation.

Get Quebec's language and culture, Quebec can get decent sidewalk maintenance and repair.

This is a better deal.

Given that they were, according to Leblanc, verbally agreeing to things and then writing down that we agreed to something completely different, and then reopening those points to push even more.

This is a much better deal.

I fear China because of the shit they do and don't say.

Twenty years ago they were almost done consolidating "critical minerals" worldwide.

The US is fueling Canada's drug crisis. We increased our border protection to keep the moron happy and all we get is catching shot coming north.

The online mode might flop, since part of the success of 5's online mode was that it was so generous and buggy at the start that the initial waves of online players became trillionaires in-game. This allowed subsequent waves to be preyed upon by Rockstar but also boosted by the old timers.

Nixon was not fully prosecuted or even investigated because it was a "time for healing" by Carter Ford. Point is that he was immediately forgiven.

Reagan/Bush Sr and Iran Contra was outright ignored, not even talked about by Clinton.

Bush Jr legalized torture and Obama said it was time to come together and heal as a nation and swept it under a rug.

Biden waited until the election year to prosecute Trump, so he got to walk on all but E. Jean Carroll's judgements, was even made king by SCOTUS and didnt use it to stop him or SCOTUS.

Fyi: Roots has been US owned for like a decade.

Get out, vote, and hold them to account when they don't take this regime to task.

The pipeline is horrible news.

It ties our oil to US refineries. We need to take back our oil fields and rebuild our refineries.

Yeah, Sea Wolves, a fairly well known entity among BC's coastal first nations.

Yes, I have to hope that is Carney's green energy plan behind the pipelines. Once oil is done, we can replace those with water or some other product.

But it makes us less than Iran. At least they refine their own product. We ship it to the US, they refine it and then pocket all of OUR money.

Rural Canadian Tire customers.

Not true.

Prior to Brian Mulroney and NAFTA, Alberta did not need to send basically all of its oil to the US for refinement. Vancouver used to have five refineries, all but one were shuttered thanks to him and NAFTA. The one that remains is the smallest of the set.

Its why the original transmountain pipeline was built to handle multiple products in both directions

There is SNAP funding.

Even the Republicans ensured that there was 5 Billion Dollars prepared to ensure that SNAP funding could not easily run out.

It is being Withheld by Trump
