    Agreed that Riser makes the argument for a "like" button once again. Going to share this description with my friend who works for the feds, I'm sure he'll appreciate it.

    Meticulous description implies truth/reality. So let’s consider it that.

    you see the repudiation of your beliefs in response after response and instead of reexamining the notions you cling to, you insist that

    a) the forums are terrible these days because of politics
    b) that you’re the REAL victim
    c) everything you don’t agree with is fabrication or exaggeration


    besides the attacks and taunts to the sovereignty of the country, the half million job losses in ontario alone, and the average hit of making life 2k more expensive per household in Canada, the other numbers are pretty gloomy too:

    https://financialpost.com/news/mackl...nomy-trade-war

    it’s just so weird that the trade deal was only negotiated a few years ago. it was supposed to be this beautiful thing, at least that’s what the President said at the time. who was that again?

    But i’m sure that you and many main character Americans are also super worried. So sorry that the anthem got booed at a sports game, that must be hard.

    They do seem awfully butt hurt about that. It's weird because there's something that they used to say about people's feelings. I can't quite remember what it was, something about fondle your feelings or something? Or was it flop around and find out? I don't know, they have so many fun little sayings they like to throw around

    MU: "I don’t care that our anthem was booed, it’s a terrible song".

    True story, I went in for my citizen interview a couple of years ago and the lady told me I had to take the test. I say; "what? the website implied I didn't". Well I did, so I proceeded. First question is what is the National Anthem called? I go blank..."Wait a minute let me hum it". So I answer the SSB after a moment and she is like; "Really"? To which I replied; "I never liked that song. I wish it was America the Beautiful". Ya, I aced the rest.
    Never in U.S. history has the public chosen leadership this malevolent. The moral clarity of their decision is crystalline, particularly knowing how Trump will regard his slim margin as a “mandate” to do his worst. We’ve learned something about America that we didn’t know, or perhaps didn’t believe, and it’ll forever color our individual judgments of who and what we are.

    but I think it was a former american congress person pointed out based on population representation the mostly liberal and or NDP 51st state would flood the congress likely with democrats and really phuck up the republicans







    Just another one of trumps dumb ass ideas

    It’s funny you think that the GOP would give Canadians any voting power vs just making it a territory like PR or Guam etc. But if it’s paper towels you want…

    Trump said 51st state but of course no body up here believes anything he sez cuz he is such a wanker so its just a inconsequential point of nothingness

    WTF: Trump responding to a question on Mexico and Canada: I look at some of these agreements and I say who would ever sign a thing like this. The tariffs will go forward, yes. We'll make up a lot of territory. Our country will be liquid and rich again.

    Uh, "who would ever sign a thing like this" My man, YOU signed this

    We will see if trump actuly invokes the tarrifs or finds a reason to put it off





    I'm betting in the 11th hr Trump finds a reason to NOT





    of course the rest of N.A. is trying to plan business but why should the trump care ?

    1% of Americans owe more than $10,000 in medical debt per Kaiser Foundation.

    Canadians average $6,000 in medical debt mostly due to dental per HealthCoalition.ca

    So apparently Americans are fat and Canadians have teeth like the English?

    And Instagram memes are always dumb as shit.

    In canada I go to hospitol reception, i give her my medical # , she asks my date of birth and thats it I am in for whatever from ER to surgey so there are no insurance comapies to deal with




    According to ski bro an MD will have a # and so they just bill the system directly without intration





    SO i don''t know how it would be possible to incur ANY debt in the canadian system ?





    dental is not covered but that is changing

    That $6,000 is from a poll of 3,000 people in the US, Canada, and Australia (so maybe 1,000 from each country?)

    The poll asked “have you gone into debt for medical care” - could be that someone did go into debt by putting some dental surgery on Invisalign etc on their credit card but then paid it off.

    The poll also included things like gym memberships and chiropractor treatment costs as medical debt.

    I’m not saying there is zero medical debt in the Canadian system - but there is no chance the average medical debt is $6,000.

    Shit I mean for example a dental implant is like $10,000usd - I don’t think 50% of Canadians have 1) gotten a dental implant done and 2) they all put it on their credit card and since then have only paid the interest

    I don’t claim to know the Canadian healthcare system. Ours is quasi broke, hence Luigi being a folk hero. But from what I understand, there exists no perfect system.
