For people outside the US, this is a classic example and by no means a rarity.
@michelin@hachyderm.io@VeroniqueB99 this is why we plan to move to Canada before retirement
@michelin Anyone who can should...
@VeroniqueB99 @michelin
Careful with that. We have our own mini-me version of Trump in the form of Pierre Poilievre, a 'conservative' who is almost certain be elected with a majority because "woke".
@clintruin @michelin Facking hell....
@clintruin @VeroniqueB99 @michelin But, as far as I understand it from a EU perspective, in #Canada you still will have checks&balances, even if he gets elected.
@wettach @VeroniqueB99 @michelin
Such as they are...our House of Commons is modeled after the British System for all intents and purposes.
@clintruin @VeroniqueB99 @michelin
There goes my plan B. 
@clintruin @VeroniqueB99 @michelin oh noo… Canada was my last hope. Europe will be governed completely by fascist in only few years.

What should be terrifying to Canadians is that PoiLIEvre will be in power alongside Trump, who has recently called us the 51st state. With roughly 20 percent of the country being traitorous assholes who want to join the States, I fear--deeply--for Canadian sovereignty.
And for Canadians:
WHEN we are taken over by the US it will be because the Canadian people ask for it, and they'll ask for it because they will be choreographed to ask for it.
But they will.
@clintruin @VeroniqueB99 @michelin fascism seems to be a pandemic 
@leonid @clintruin @michelin there are a few countries still resisting, New Zeland, France among others.... but as a whole the entire world is shifting right....
@clintruin @leonid @VeroniqueB99 the percentage of Canadians who want to join the US haven't really increased since the 60s though, so hopefully it can't really go up much
@VeroniqueB99 @michelin at the risk of stating the obvious, most countries, including Canada, aren't thrilled about retirement-age immigrants, because policymakers prefer to have people who will contribute to the economy. if you intend to immigrate, do it sooner rather than later.
@ireneista @VeroniqueB99 @michelin I'd like to add that moving to a country with a working health care system only once you think you need one, is a bit of a douche move.
That's why here in Germany it's close to impossible to move from private health insurance back to regular health insurance.
@michelin @VeroniqueB99 I really wish that were in the cards for us. Vancouver and Montreal are wonderful.
@michelin @VeroniqueB99 You don’t just “move to” Canada. We have immigration laws too.
Unless you’re a doctor, you’re probably not “moving to Canada.”
Sorry.
@michelin @VeroniqueB99 So you will profit of other's people taxes. very progressive. I'm impressed.
