The separatist movement is not dead at all. It continued to shape the province’s politics a lot, and also at the federal level.

And I can tell you, Canada ignoring Quebec’s opinion on this and joining the UK would furiously galvanize the Quebec independence movement.

Love you Europe.

This is interesting, but I felt the measures used aren’t right. It’s to be expected that a leader who’s antagonising your country would be disliked, even when their ideology is similar to yours.

To be able to compare well enough in the little time I have in my busy life, I had to go by a methodology that is not perfect but allows some comparison. It’s the Political Compass.

According to this site, during the 2025 federal elections, the Conservative party was 8,7 (economic scale and social scale respectively), while Trump was 9,9 during the last presidential elections. It means Trump is to the right of the Conservative party, but not by a lot.

I have to go now but I’ll try later to find the proportion of Albertan voterd who voted for the Conservative party.

EDIT: 63,5% of Albertan voters voted for the CPC. It’s still hard to compare that statistic to the proportion of Californian voters who voted for Trump, but my feeling is that California isn’t far removed from Alberta, perhaps it is even left of Alberta.

It’s surprising they’ve never moved to Linux, considering the urgency and the power of the chinese state to steer society.

Jews collectively decide to go to the same region, and in doing so give it a significant Jewish cultural character.

I accept that a Jew who wishes for a nation-state for Jews, based on civic nationalism, inclusive for people of different religions and ethnicities, and showing the due respect for the natives and their property and land rights, isn’t far right.

But for the most part, Israelis are far-right now.

What about the far right though?

That’s good, but it pales in comparison to the effect we could gain by reducing the amount of paper that gets printed, especially in business.

Incredibly, a lot of time I spend is spent scanning shit that was produced using a computer, then printed, sent to me, only for me to then bring it back into a computer!

Perhaps the native thinks of their own childhood as the baseline, and feels like they would be unable to provide, while the immigrant came from comparable economic conditions they have now, or even worse, so they don’t see issues with it.

There’s also the fact that the immigrant is often religious and believes he must have children.

They do this because the job seeker is already invested, and doesn’t have the time to ponder well their choice, or speak about this with someone else.

They must choose on the spot, and having already invested time. They’ll often accept much lower than they would have otherwise.

For the hirer, it pays off on the long term despite the time they also invest. It’s thousands, even sometimes tens of thousands of dollars saved each year.

I also don’t apply to jobs that don’t show the salary in the posting. But I used to when I was desperate.

He thinks a trade surplus for Canada means the US is subsidizing Canada.

I’m not even kidding.

Imagine all the NATO countries send forces to Greenland and poor Iceland gets invaded instead.

Yea sure it will.

The mystery for me is that, how does the regime being transparent on imperialism and might makes right doesn’t wake up those people from the spell of normalcy bias?

Unfortunately, many of us know English well and some are happy to consume that propaganda, so the infection has vectors to spread.
