  1. The election in Oz sadly sounds like here. Is the United States the only western nation left with the confidence to still have some stones? The question answers itself. Australia and Canada don’t have a Trump like figure because they are not worthy of one.

    1. Pretty much, yeah.

      Daily now I have that despairing feeling of wishing I could go back to when I barely gave a crap about politics. When I didn’t know how rotten the federal governing structure of Canada truly is. How corrupt the Liberals are. How incestuous the relationships between the Liberals and so many of our institutions are. How blissfully ignorant so many Canadians are of the true state of the country, how they happily line up to vote Liberal, again, because “Elbows up!” and “Trump sucks!” and “no Maple MAGA!” and “Cons are too Trumpy!” and “Poilievre is too scary!” and blah blah blah.

      As said in the Matrix… “Why, oh why, didn’t I take the BLUE pill?”

      Weak man have created bad times, and those times can & will get a lot worse before they can start getting better, I think. If they even can, now.

      1. Too many Kanadians worship the government. As the halfrican said, “Government is the answer.” This new heathen religion allows very evil people to get in charge, which is the inevitable reward for government worship.

    2. Been thinking about moving to Oz from Canada, as a retiree. I’ve been there 5 times on vacation, and I have a sibling there. The nation in some ways is as f#@$%d as Canada, or approaching it, for many of the same reasons.

      But at least you don’t have to shovel snow in winter.

    3. Correct here in Australia we live in a Uniparty state where around 80% of the population for the radical left ( Greens), Centre Left ( Labor) or the suppossed conservatives who are really soft left just right of Labor ( Liberals). Only about 20% of people are awake to what is happening. Ironically the same number who didnt get jabbed.

  2. Carbon’s Canada: “Government report predicts 2040 dystopia: Collapsed economy, hunting for food”

    So all according to plan.

  3. Re: government report provides blueprint for Carney’s dystopia.

    2040? Many parts of this policy have already been implemented and are bearing fruit.

    I took a drive through downtown cold & drizzling Toronto at night a couple weeks ago – I thought I was driving through the set of the Bladerunner movie or some other dystopian nightmare.

    Sirens and flashing lights, drug addicts, crumbling streets, random tents in parks, boarded shops…

  4. J. D. Vance didn’t kill the Pope. By no longer providing defensive weapons to Ukraine he has killed dozens, if not hundreds, of Ukrainian children. He is truly an evil bastard.

    1. “J. D. Vance didn’t kill the Pope. By no longer providing defensive weapons to Ukraine he has killed dozens, if not hundreds, of Ukrainian children. He is truly an evil bastard.”

      Oh, of course…because that’s HIS call, whether or not the US continues to provide free weaponry to the Ukraine? Seriously?

      You’re turning into UnMe 2.0 with such incredibly inane (and inept) trolling.

      1. Thanks for taking the load off. I’m already dealing with too many trolls that prance around this place.

        –the REAL fc.

        1. “Thanks for taking the load off. I’m already dealing with too many trolls that prance around this place.”

          It really is getting ridiculous, for sure. And they aren’t even clever trolls, just lame and predictable ones.

    2. So, it was Vance that killed those kids. And not the guys that refused to end the war, thus ensuring that more kids would die? If Ukraine can’t defend its own children, what business has it fighting? Doesn’t it need peace at literally any price?

  5. Canada 2040, it’s what everyone 100+ yrs ago dreamed of when this settled and conquered this unforgiving land and made it productive. Canada, from a global leader to laggard.

    Welcome to the 3rd world. I’d argue we’re out of 1st world status and have now dipped to “developing” status. We are headed to where they want to bring us very quickly.

    1. Your not a troll because have a different opinion. Are we all supposed to think the same here? We all have to think like you?

      1. “Your not a troll because have a different opinion. Are we all supposed to think the same here? We all have to think like you?”

        No, you’re a troll when you childishly post ridiculous, inane or offensive content just to get people to respond to you. You’re a troll when your ‘arguments’ are so lame that you don’t even make an attempt to defend them, because you know they are indefensible…but you don’t care, because that wasn’t the point of posting them; the point was your insatiable need for attention, just like an ADHD child who bounces up and down chanting “Lookatmelookatme LOOK AT ME!!”

        “Are we all supposed to think the same here? We all have to think like you?”

        Not at all. Opinions here are quite diverse, and most of us are quite tolerant of opposing viewpoints (not a lot of Liberals here, thankfully)…but they have to be based on facts. Not fantasy, ignorance, bigotry or hatred. As roaddog has just wisely stated, rationality is not an unreasonable request.

          1. “Well there you have it.

            Thnjs for that cogent rational explanation.”

            It was a bit rushed, and thus not as clearly written as I would have liked. Thanks for not assuming when I used the word ‘you’ in the first paragraph I was talking about you personally…I was not.
