Right now Conservatives like Doug Ford are much more ready to cave to Trump's demands than Carney. Pierre Poilievre would be the same way: talk big talk, but cave. And in the end what even would be the point of PP speaking for Canada, when PP's agenda is to replicate some of the worst aspects of Trumpism in Canada anyway?

Someone has to be able and willing to enforce the law though. And the people have to be able and willing to remove officials who won't.

I recognize that these are words. That's probably why I'm poor.

They've seized the Kennedy Center for the arts in Washington DC. We can expect ~~Hitler~~ Trump Youth displays and campaigns against degenerate art, starting here and spreading across the country.

This guy is always throwing tantrums when people ask questions. He must imagine it means he's in control. He clearly has no life skills, unless being a bitter little Nazi counts as a life skill. Look at him throwing around accusations of being "a degenerate": he even borrows his vocabulary from his hero Goebbels.

One of those studies that confirms something that's pretty obvious. It's still worth doing the studies, I guess.
