@Mannanan step #1 is to traon gor and obtain your RPAL.

@david a completely reasonable response. I hope you have good snacks.

If any Canadian is wondering why their provincial & federal governments keep slashing public education funds - this is a huge reason on the why. A highly educated population would be dissenting of unjust government actions. It's that simple.#CDNpoli #NeoliberalismFeedsFascism

@Paulatics a really moving rebuttal. Thanks for sharing your family story within it.And this - "To make the case for Canada, we can’t just rebut the economic arguments. We have to stay for love". Not only does this connect back to you Oma's story, its also the lesson from the UK BrexitRef Remain campaign. They spoke only of the economic arguments, and lost the referendum, and with it, they lost Britain's economy.

@dan613 @markgrieveson I mean I see your point, but there are many red lines along the way where fear of reprisal turns into self-censorship, where it becomes appeasement, becomes compliance, becomes collusion.That's what they already achieved with the US media landscape. That's what the US is trying to achieve with Rodriguez.What's even the point of sovereignty if you actively control yourself to align with them against your own best interests, without even being asked?

@parismarx We also don't need the "Made in Canada for Canadians" approach in all cases. The good news is that there are plenty of great open source platforms, services, and applications that we can use instead of building another government backed boondoggle.

@northernlights @canada and she's already banned from Russia!

@MiriShuli @chris If he decides to invade us, he'll do it no matter what. If you look at history, appeasing and ignoring have never worked.
