      I know Carney's not even close to as bad as Trump but he literally just called for a "Zionist Palestine"

      Also, have you ever heard of Doug and Rob Ford?

          constantly threatened by a right wing party, who has used voter suppression to always win most of the time, and DEMS who are also DINOs , on the right but is elected as a "left" president, but votes with the gop on many things. which is why they dont immediately repeal things like tax cuts, or patriot act, or right now unlikely to repeal anything when palintir finishes all thier databases of individuals in the us. also no healthcare, because Ds would lose thier bargaining chip into getting elected in the future, so its just stringing voters along. also billionaires have significant sway us policy. when both parties are right wing, one is center right but the other is on far right, its very hard to make progress here.

          always dealing with how white people behave around POC groups, if you're a pOC some caucasian groups will always give you some wierd vibes, like give you a nasty stare, or immediately try to quickly walk away. also dealing with reverse white flight.

            I do believe the reputational damage caused by the orange one might be one of the things. That and obvious tariff issues. Hopefully it's temporary , or you have people who just don't care.

                    If you visit harbin China they will think you are Russian, which is pretty much a wash. The worst part is the Russians will think you are Russian too and try to get you to drink with them. Unless you regularly down pints of vodka do NOT go drinking with Russians.

                          To clarify for anyone who missed it:

                          Trump made a law that states that the president of the US is above the law.

                          This means that, even after the next election, he could remain president, since the laws that prevent this don’t apply to him. He could also just straight up shoot one in the streets and wouldn’t be able to be punished.

                                        Canada has some of the least affordable cities in North America but it also has some of the most affordable cities. If you are able to move then Canada has some very affordable options. But I appreciate that the ability to move is a luxury that many folks don’t have because of circumstances like family commitments.
