最近去 r/BuyCanadian 主要是看看形势到哪一步了，昨天看到一个楼主说希望经济条件不好、或者挣扎在贫困线上的人，不要勉强自己去支持国货，如果能趁机囤积最近因为抵制运动而被迫打折的美国产品减轻生活压力也请尽情去购买不要有心理负担，得到了评论里很多人的赞同，我心里略感安慰。
作为一个来自民族主义盛行之地的人，我一直有点担心这种抵制运动走向一些奇怪的地方，好在这个sub 里每有人发表过激观点，都有大量网友在评论里劝阻/反对。更多的时候大家在分享各种类目的本地或欧洲产品。
Let’s not forget about the Putin stooges working against Canada and Canadians, supporting Donald and MAGA.

Anyone thinking Canada is 'at risk of invasion because they don't have any nukes' ought to bear in mind that 'nukes' these days are eminently portable, and Canadians have many many allies with access to that tech. In theory, such capability is less than hours away...
Serendipitously, King Charles recently presented his Canadian attendant with a sword.
Just sayin'
"Look, we’re not in a Woody Allen #film. Foreign policy by tweet isn’t just dumb-as-a-door-hinge—it’s dangerous. The world isn’t your therapy Don. Ya don’t get to bomb, lie about a ceasefire, go back to cheating at golf like nothing happened"

As a congressman, Pete Hoekstra once testified that tariffs were bad for business.
But as Trump's ambassador to Canada, he now champions the trade policies that are being linked to job losses in his former Michigan district.

I really don't see how the #CPC thinks that their Lucky #PierrePoilievre 's refusal/inability/whatever to receive the basic security clearance required to view the full #NSICOP report on foreign interference can even be shrugged off as the usual
'good people break bad rules'
set of dbl standards conservatives hold so dear.
CBC's R. Barton seems to be trying to get Canadians to swallow it along with her, and I hope she chokes on her efforts, Canada's existence is at stake here!

Lies, Information Spaces, and Changing Minds
The scary thing we are learning is, to our collective horror, we have built up very little institutional or cultural resilience to fascists, specifically their lies and manipulation. The good news is that we are getting a crash course in how to build that resilience, and it can be pretty straightforward.
I think the foundation of democratic resilience is ending bothsides-ism in #media. Once someone demostrates they are untrustworthy, their voice needs to be dismissed outright. As consumers, all of us have the agency to reject sources that rely on both-sidesism and clickbait catastrophizing. This will take time to learn good habits and it involves collective responsibility, but I believe we can do this.
These battles are won in information spaces, and while autocrats have the advantage of corporate mouthpiece control, they have the disadvantage of being grossly incompetent and stupidly cruel. Their 'brand' is technocratic efficiency and objectivity. As crazy as it sounds, a lot of people dont know they are being lied to because of the information spaces they are trapped in and the blinders they have put up. Our pressure on autocrats, pointing out their incompetence, stupidity, and cruelty, needs to be relentless in order to destroy their brand and help people break free of these bubbles.
I know its distressing to see so many fall for outright lies, but people are very capable of changing their minds when they are presented with evidence that touches on their personal experiences. I point back to collective responsibility to win back minds and diligently fight against authoritarian propoganda, as all of us who have used #BigTech or ever believed in 'meritocracy' have helped build this world.

#Canada , the #CPC 's leader doesn't think much of you at all,
"I've already had a security clearance, because I was a cabinet minister; so I've already been cleared."
Except I'd wager the Lucky #PierrePoilievre knows as well as you or I that security clearances are not 'one and done'. So his clearance under completely different circumstances for utterly different reasons a DECADE AGO does not still stand, no matter how many times he lies those words to your faces.
#Canada beware of pols claiming 45's 51st state threats are a 'joke' or simply a ruse to 'get a better deal for the us'
They are touting this line so that Cdns will lower their guard this #election and vote for a #CPC party/leader who has no security clearance & is

45's annexation threats are very much real. Why else would P Navarro seek to remove Canada from the Five Eyes intelligence sharing group?

🤔 🇨🇦 Over the past 4 or 5 decades I've noticed across this country there has been a drop in Canadians voting for governments who support the most vulnerable; subsidized housing, financial support, etc...we are abandoning our sense of community spirit, our social democracy.
Truly discouraging and disappointing.
Millions, yes that many, are barely surviving, living in squalor; crammed together in basements, or aging and crumbling social housing. in unsafe unsanitary conditions. or are on the streets.
The shortage of old subsidized housing units has increased wait lists up to 12 years in some areas.
Meanwhile Canadians are falling for political rhetoric of trickle down economics that is really, trickle down selfishness, or , the Americanization of Canada .
A country is judged by how it treats its most vulnerable, we are failing--and polls say we are one of the best, the most free but are we when we leave people trapped in despair due to extreme poverty?
