Hey, 🇨🇦Canada.
You too can have a government of gangsters just like the 🇺🇸USA.
All you need to do is vote for petulant peewee piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre and his coven of like-minded ideologues.
We did it in Ontario.
Alberta and Saskatchewan did it too.
Come along!

Still…? They’re liars and cheats who’ll do anything to get what they want. No matter who they have to throw-in with. And, the oligarchs cash flow is bottomless. They’ll throw as much money as they need to at these gullible rubes to get them to do their dirty work – wittingly or not.
ALBERTA SEPARATION FOR DUMMIES With all the talk of Wexit and Alberta separation right now, here is a handy guide for why it is a bad idea, and the immense hurdles preventing it trom happening thanks to the Clarity Act of 2000. CANADIAN HISTORY EHX IS AVAILABLE ON ALL PODCAST PLATFORMS CANADIAN HISTORY CIOX 2 5 THE REFERENDUM In order for any movement towards separation to happen, a referendum must be held in Alberta. In that referendum, a supermajority (66-75%) must be in approval. The House of Commons can also decide if the referendum question was clear before the vote, and if not, it can overrule the results of the referendum. NEGOTIATONS If the House of Commons decides that the referendum question was clear and the majority is clear, then all the provinces and First Nations must be part of negotiations for separation. Negotiations would not be easy, nor favourable to Alberta. LAND TRANSFERS If Alberta separated, its borders would not be as they are now. Not only is Alberta made up of Treaty Land, but 4% is federal crown land. Indigenous reserves, national parks and military bases are federal, not provincial. Those would not transfer. LOST JOBS With the removal of military bases, national parks and more, thousands of jobs would be lost by Albertans who work in those federal industries and areas. Not to mention the millions in money they bring into the province each year. LANDLOCKED Yes, a landlocked country cannot be subject to high tarifts or be denied a port, but it doesn't change the fact that Alberta would be landlocked. This would be a massive hinderance on trade for the province. Add in the fact that Alberta would not be a part of international treatries and the tariffs on importing goods, it isn't a great situation for the province. NO PIPELINES Since pipelines seem to be a big topic, and despite the fact that Trudeau is actually trying to get pipelines built pipelines would not be part of the Republic of Alberta. Canada would have no reason to approve a …
