      It’s just capitalism, baby! Just a business arrangement between two close personal friends in the oil industry. No need to get democracy involved.

      The Canadian prosecution and courts absolutely need to squash this. Sub-state actors goin on random adventures like this causes war down the line - in fact we had a 30 Years’ war about that.

    Divide et impera. It’s the same across Europe and NA- almost as if there is a concerted effort funded by someone who wants to divide us and make us fight each other and succumb to internal strife instead of attacking the guy in the mask twirling his mustache behind that onion shaped cathedral over there.

    It’d be nice if the feds could chime in to take a verbal dump on the UCP aiding and abetting MAGA traitors.

      Huh? This is like saying Ukraine was speedrunning fascism because Russia installed sock puppets in Donbas. Perhaps you should think through what you’re suggesting before typing it.

              No one I’ve ever met claims it’s a utopia. Unlike Americans brainwashed from birth we don’t believe our country is perfect, nor do we believe that other countries have no value. We don’t believe our country is perfect and entitled to greatness.

              Consider that you believe that we think this way, precisely because you can’t imagine it differently.

                That guys not an American lol, just a rabid xenophobe making you feel the same xenophobia you’re pushing against Americans because we live in a country with a significantly propagandized population lmfao. Hilariously ironic. Maybe you should all just stop talking shit about citizens of nations as if they’re monolithic?

                  Wow you’ve dropped a real steaming hot pile of take right here.

                  See my response to him.

                  Our country is propagandized by the US, and within Canada we aren’t fed the same exceptionalist bullshit that they are in the US.

                  I know and I’m close with a lot of American friends, family and colleagues. I know they aren’t all assholes, but unfortunately about half are, and about 1 in 6 actually want to annex my country.

    You all wannabe Americans? Go ahead and move to the US. Apply for citizenship. No one is stopping you. You’re doing the rest of us a favor.

    But, you don’t get to take the land with you.

      We could start by enforcing our laws. Foreign interference is everywhere, and we’ve just ignored it for decades. Eg, the US funds the Frasier Institute and no one makes any comment about this. Half of our media is owned by them. The convoy was subsidized by US funding. I don’t believe for a moment that the UCP and/or its members aren’t awash in US corporate bribes and cash promises.

      Our country is under threat and no one seems to do a damn thing about it. Why doesn’t any politician discuss this? Poilievre talks about Chinese interference, where is the concern for this interference by the US, very clearly our enemy??!

      We should have some citizenship exchange program so they can swap with those being persecuted in US for not being male white rich.

      No one is stopping you

      To be fair, even if in the US legally, ICE is stopping you. And then shipping you off to some other foreign country’s jail.

    Trade it for California?

    I get it that they are being hypocrites, but surely it would only make it easier for US states to secede.

        Until they become the 51st state, which will be a “join or else” deal. Then they’ll enjoy the US healthcare “system”.
