Donald Trump may just cost Canada’s Conservatives the election
-
In the last 2 decades, the major English bloc of US, Canada, UK and Australia has been in lock step toward the shift to the right. I think it is no coincidence that it aligns with the meteoric rise of Rupert Murdoch’s media empire. To satiate his incredible greed, his media organizations have fed into people’s fears and laid down the groundwork for today’s social media companies promoting inflammatory content to maximize engagement. I don’t know if democracy can survive without reining in popular media and significantly reducing biased and false reporting.

Good reason to be proud: at the end of WW2, Canada had the 3rd largest navy and 4th largest airforce in the world. Their contribution in WW2 cannot be understated.
-
The same way we thought he would cost himself his own election, right? RIGHT???
-
Conservatives working hard to say liberal won before the election happen so no vote.
-
I"m pulling for you Canada. Don't do what the US did.
-
The commonwealth should break up Sky News
-
They should break up Rupert Murdoch
-
Good point, I had forgotten that the Liberal leadership race is underway. I'd personally be fine with either of them as the liberal party leader. But in the end, I'd rather the NDP be given a chance at governing.

Here in Europe, everywhere but the UK what Brexit did was force all Far-Right parties to stop with their anti-EU rethoric.
Maybe Trump and the consequences of his actions will have a similar effect around the US and possibly further out (I hope it screws the Far-Right around here that most apes American shit).
However, in the UK Brexit did nothing to tone down the nutty Far Right, quite the contrary.

I am definitely watching in horror. You'd think a country obsessed with WW2 movies would at least get their parts right.
Tell your countrymen to Follow The Money, my friend. You may all get through this mess.
-
To be fairrr, it's the only job the guy's ever really had.
-
Yeah, the one good thing about Brexit was how all the idiots shut up about the EU completely. It's sadly slowly wearing off though.
-
if Freeland isn't the PM she will definitely have top-tier responsibilities. She is definitely someone you want on your team.

That worked for a few years, the AfD wants Germany to return to the Deutsche Mark. That would basically be the end of the German economy, but yeah patriots and all that
-
yeah if even half of those "Americans in the comments" are actual Americans and actual humans I'd be surprised. You'd think people would have learned from the Anti-net Neutrality debacle 8 years ago: the same thing can be done with generative LLMs now.
-
Yeah, in the recent Far Right meeting in Spain they were all back to the whole anti-EU talk, which by their own criteria makes them Traitors To The Fatherland, since none of the EU nations (even Germany or France) is big enough to be able to be able to face the likes of the US or China on their own rather than as part of a united EU front: they literally want to make their nations weaker.
Personally I think that's because pretty much all of the European Far-Right parties are being paid by foreign interests.
-
So what you're saying is that you're going to join the EU within five years so we can make her the next High Representative for Foreign Affairs, got you.

I think your assumption is partly true, the other part being that they do not care if the economy goes to shit as that would just leave them with more to blame on the other parties.
