I can't wait for these pipeline rallies in Alberta to spawn an actual separatist movement, as it becomes clearer that the gravy train is done and they completely cannot accept that they hosed it all away these past 18 years.

I hate to break it to ya but Chretien started his decade long reign of terror very nearly 30 years ago, so that leaves a whopping slate of Kim Campbell or Mulroney to choose from.

The solution is to get the gently caress out of your house and challenge your preconceived notions of how the entire country functions instead of ranting off the chain in here. Shocking news: you won't find a sense of community or belonging if your social life is videogames and shitposting on SA all day.

AFancyQuestionMark posted:The last few pages of this thread reminds me of pre-Trump USPOL. I guess what they say about Canada's politics being US politics with a time-lag is true. I don't think you understand the extent to which the NDP is whipped internally and "troublemakers" forced out of the party if they don't toe the line. It's a hostile environment, no different from the other two parties in that respect.

PhilippAchtel posted:What, a former factory worker or farmer would be incapable of taking care of children or the elderly? Or have no desire to make it their life's work to care for others if unshackled from the drudgery of our work-to-live wage system? Speaking from experience I would not entrust most working class trash with their own immediate family members, let alone other people's loved ones. For every decently intelligent and empathetic tradesman there are fifty blue collar trashfires on their third marriage, fifth child, eighth trip through rehab and ninth conviction for something heinous. Unfortunately they only have two braincells to manage all of the above with. But sure, let's retrain them to be care workers, I'm sure that'll go really well. loving out of touch hippies, SMFH.

Danaru posted:https://twitter.com/UnistotenCamp/status/1082422214115225600 The feds finally running out of patience and smashing the First Nations out west was inevitable, once they bought that stupid loving pipeline and had no choice but to finish it. Until they go full Oka and start heavily arming the checkpoints they're going to continue getting steamrolled, and it will go entirely ignored by both the media and the racist pieces of poo poo which make up the bulk of this failing petrostates population.

zapplez posted:Whats the end game to having an armed native presence at the gates? They take a pot shot or end up shooting a cop in the leg? Then the entire public starts siding with the state and is ok with it all getting steamrolled. The government is happy to steamroll an unarmed native gate in the middle of winter, because nobody will give two fucks. They aren't yet at the point where they are willing to start a shooting war, especially with captain selfie in head office. There's a reason that  Is one of the most iconic images in modern Canadian history. Because if the Ashinaabe hadn't had the balls to arm themselves, Oka would have ended pretty loving fast. Get guns, get the media on site, make sure it's broadcast live around the world when the Canadian Government starts shooting natives to build a stupid loving pipeline. E: and British Columbians don't give a flying gently caress what the feds have "approved" from 5000km away in loving Ottowa, they aren't getting that loving pipeline built. The idea that we should just give up, sit here, and lick boots because some profiteers on the other side of the continent told us to is utterly ridiculous, give your loving head a shake.

The vote manipulation and outright attempts to pit Canadian against Canadian over this on Reddit is pretty amazing to watch. The same dozen accounts parroting the same lines across multiple subs and having them boosted high, while anyone posting vaguely in support of the issue ends up with double-digit negatives within minutes. Another terrifying example of how power players are attempting to foment discord globally by manipulating the message on contentious topics through the use of anonymous shell accounts. This era of the Internet is going to be a case study in a textbook a few years from now, guaranteed.

Coxswain Balls posted:Quick correction, the Oka standoff was between the government and the Mohawk of Kanesatake. The warrior in that photo is Anishinaabe, but that's more because of how the standoff drew Indigenous peoples from across the nation to stand up against the feds. I appreciate this, actually. I was a bit confused by the difference between caption and stated participants, went with the one I did to be safe. The whole "colonial" titles like Ojibwe VS. "actual" names thing out east is new to me, and I wasn't aware of it before coming out here.

Risky Bisquick posted:So is there a map of settled land claims in BC whereby they could route the pipeline around non-indian act land? This whole pipeline approval thing is just ludicrous to me. Why are they passing over land that was not ever settled with the Government of Canada? What do they expect the indigenous people to do, just cede their claim and let corporations use their land against their will We'll that's what's happened for the past century, why should it change now?

Having been before where Chairmaster has been stuck mentally for years, and having tried to kill myself back in 2015, I sincerely hope someone managed to intervene in time or that he himself backed down at the last minute. I feel bad, because I have flippantly remarked to other goons recently that he was posting like me four years ago, without thinking about why I used to post like that. I also didn't realize he was in BC, I thought he was back east.  . These forums are a sincerely unhealthy place for anyone suffering from depression or mental illness.

I have every confidence in Albertans leveraging their full faculties and making the hard decision to gently caress over not only themselves, but also the rest of the country, as hard as they possibly can. Nobody eats poo poo with quite as much joy as the Albertan electorate.

Hey, Hey PT6A, You've been posting the same insufferably moronic poo poo for over half a loving decade. People have been trying to educate you for half a loving decade, you appear to turn over a new leaf for a bit, and then you go back to posting the same insufferably moronic poo poo. Maybe have a look in the mirror and do some deep soul searching, maybe actually try to educate yourself as to why volumes of posters have been calling you a loving retard and buying you spite avs for half a loving decade. Maybe, just maybe, it's because the problem is you. You insufferably moronic little poo poo. You cretin. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)
