Thanks Trump!
Thanking trump, That’s another one I didn’t have on my bingo card for 2025, this ride is wild!
Trump’s truculence has infuriated Canadians
That is a 100% new word to me. 😐
Me too! And a perfect description :)
I don’t know why, it’s a perfectly cromulent word.
My vocabulary is embiggened.
Why 😐?
Congratulations on learning a new word.
…today i told a coworker that i was listening to the transformers soundtrack because transformers rule and i also have a huge transformers collection because transformers totally rule, and he sent me that emoji in response…
Thanks!
I wanted a wide-eyed closed-mouth emoji, lol. After viewing on firefox mobile, however, it looks unintentionally aloof.
Seriously? You’re shaming someone for learning a new word?
I can see how it looks that way, but I think Candletiger was sincere.
I was sincere about the congratulations but only offered them because I thought you were complaining that the news shouldn’t use fancy words. lol.
I’m glad we were all able to talk this out.
I wish the reaction to Trump would fuel the left-liberals/social libertarians in Germany. Instead, a quarter of the populace wants to vote for nazis. So I wish I’d live in Canada or some other queer friendly nation that isn’t being dominated by the far right right now.
…gay space communism FTW!..
Because the “left liberals” in Germany are also Nazis arguing that Israel is allowed to kill civilians in Gaza.
We almost went far right too. Our conservatives aren’t nazis but if they won this one we would be following Germany’s footsteps
Also Germany is likely more queer friendly than Canada lol
According to international orgs, Canada is more queer friendly in both public sentiment and legally. Just because violence isnt too common doesn’t mean there is no discrimination. As an androgynous presenting person 50% of the time, I have been verbally assaulted plenty of times both by far right and MLs in Germany.
Ever been to Canada? You’d be welcomed in Vancouver Calgary Toronto Montreal but go to a smaller place and you’d be in for a rough time
One anecdote: Trans people do exist in rural Canada. The woman who sold me tires outside Saskatoon was I’m-pretty-sure-maybe-definitely trans and gave every appearance of getting along fine with her coworkers.
I can’t speak to her quality of life generally but anyway nobody has chased her off to Vancouver yet. I would imagine tire shops are probably on the worse end for harassment so if Saskatoon was hell on earth for trans people she probably wouldn’t pick a tire shop to work at.
Lol just because she gets along with her coworkers doesn’t mean she doesn’t deal with shit. I would bet money she does in SK.
Well that’s bullshit. And I’m from rural Alberta
I’m from rural Alberta too and I was bullied heavily just for having long hair. Honestly fuck rural Alberta.
Trump. MCGA, making Canada great again!
Make Canada 320x200 with 256 colours again!
Carney should send a thank you note to Trump for helping him win the election
Meirdas Touch once again. The orange shit stain backs a Con and all voters take that as a sign that the person is a piece of shit and votes opposite.
Sometimes it works nicely.
Top Poilievre defense he did use a lot of Trump’s talking points and techniques. Branding himself as Trump light.
Temu Trump
He showed who he was, and people believed him, as they should.
As a dumbass American… Go Canada! Fuck yeah good work!
yes, it is so relieving that this right wing populist trend seems to be failing in our closest neighbor. Hopefully the failure of this administration will wake a lot more places up, and create a greater push back against this trend to the far right.
Let’s hope they are more effective opposition than the Democrats.
Hopefully Britain follows Canadas footsteps (as we might vote in wish trump)
What elections are coming up in the UK? I thought Starmer won a majority just last year.
no, but local elections are
You do your local elections all at once?
Please, he’s Pound-Stretcher Trump. Not even Poundland would stock him.
NDP and Conservative leaders lost their own ridings.
NDP leader already announced he’s stepping down and I feel like the conservative has to as well.
HitlerPig is his own worst enemy, but nobody tell him.
The cherry on top:
Little PP got his ass kicked. I love it !
I don’t know how it works there. Was Pierre running in two races?
Would there have a special election for this seat if he had won both?
What are the odds he loses support and goes quiet after losing both, especially his backup incumbent election? (Knowing hard losses used to discourage people, but not always now)
Prime Minister is similar to Speaker of the House- everyone gets elected in their district and then the majority party (or in the case of a
functional democracymulti-party system, a coalition of parties that add up to 51% of the elected officials) picks their own Speaker/Prime Minister without further input from the public. In practice, if you’re already the party leader then you’re sure (95%~) to be the prime minister after your party wins/gets the biggest share in the electionNo one actually “runs for Prime Minister”. The Prime Minister is simply the leader of the governing party. That is determined by the number of seats each party wins. The PM is almost always an elected MP, but as demonstrated for the past few weeks they don’t have to be.
Thank you! I understand now.
Canada should give Trump the Order of Canada for unifying the country. Do it.
Felons aren’t allowed in Canada
Having a criminal history would likely make him ineligible.
There’s no outright rule against it but several people have been removed from the order for committing crimes.
Fuck you Buffy. Another american scumbag.
yes!!
