Do you have any idea how hard it is to find a pure Canadian? Then you gotta get it into the press whether it wants to go or not, and then the little bugger jams the works with a peavey and it takes forever to repair the damage!

Tell you what: if you really think it matters, then by all means, make it your mission. But our problem isn’t Canadians not knowing the truth, is it – hell, astonishing as it may be, the Canadian media have done a pretty good job of refuting the egregious BS coming up on the southern wind. Our problem is that we are outnumbered and outgunned by lunatics willing to blow up the world just so they can rule the ruins, and I am no longer willing to waste my breathe on being reasonable.

While I would agree with you and Voroxpete under the old rules of US politics, they no longer apply. Seems to me the average Representative either lies through his/her teeth (assuming they have any), or votes performatively, and then does something completely different, or nothing at all. I have come to really, really dislike this kind of performative vote, seeing my fellow Canadians mislead into believing it actually means that there are folks in the House, outside of two or three, who would actually do diddly-squat to prevent their country from overrunning its neighbours to achieve hegemony. Please don’t tell me how your system works, because it stopped working somewhere around Mission Accomplished.

Last I looked, any vote in Congress was foreordained unless a few Republicans were suddenly to come down with the measles, and even then, they’d probably drag themselves through DC, infecting everyone they passed, to prove their loyalty to their God Emperor.

I think we have bigger things to worry about.

We could prove decisively in front of the world that there is much, much more fentanyl coming in to Canada from the US than the other way around (we have), we could broadcast films of guns confiscated with both Canadian and US border guards testifying to the reality (we’ve done that, too), we could counter every single lie with proof of the truth and it would not matter one bit, because those who are going to believe us already do, and those who say they don’t really mean that whatever the Emperor says he’s wearing, he is wearing, whether I can see it or not.

Mr. Trump and his rich sponsors want our resources, our water, our surrender and our country for their own. They will keep at this until either they are overthrown or we beat them in a genuine war, or climate change makes the whole point moot by killing so many of us off that the survivors are left to eat each other.

Read up on Joseph Goebbels’ principles of propaganda. You will recognise them all.
