The national identity of being Canadian over the last while has been every four years wondering if the downstairs neighbors are going to decide to restart up the meth lab they keep tinkering with and bracing for the sounds of domestic violence to resume.

People in Canada are delusional and think it can't happen to us too because we're the polite maple syrup guys. I've seen the projections for Pierre Poilievre. We are in 2015 America, where everybody thinks "people won't vote for that guy, he obviously sucks", and they aren't right.

Not saying our shit doesn't stink but there's a certain matter of scale to consider. Leastaways we don't have nukes we can hand over to the psychopath we are looking at voting in.

You've described exactly how I feel. And of course, the shit down south is affecting us up here, we have our own lunatic conservatives like Doug Ford, Milhouse and Bernier who aspire to be like the GOP.

Conservatism is a worldwide problem and they all borrow each other's notes. It's not going to be a fun time for us coming up. I can only hope that when the shit hits the fan down there those up here start rethinking their bullshit.

Hey maybe when their meth lab explodes we'll also have a swift death :(
