Why does he always insist Canadian govt spending is unsustainable? Don’t we have the lowest debt-GDP ratio in the G7?

Written by an ADA officer. Wasn’t that branch considered something of a dumping ground for officers until recently?

Alberta is the Donbass of America

An interesting clip from a 2021 meeting of the so-called Canada Strong and Free Network, earlier known as the Manning Centre, shows former Reform Party leader Preston Manning schooling Smith on how to blackmail Canada into doing Alberta’s bidding by threatening to become the 51st state.
Cheekily wearing an Order of Canada pin in his lapel, the superannuated godfather of the Canadian right bloviates about how “fear of the United States can be a factor in federal provincial relations.”

He asks rhetorically, “What if Alberta did actually secede? There will be an offer from the United States for Alberta to become the 51st state. And why will that offer be made? It will be made because the United States would like to get a hold of the second or third largest source of petroleum in the world. That is why it will be made.”

“Now when that finally sinks in to Ottawa,” Manning pauses… “Do they want that to happen? Or do they have to say, ‘Maybe we have to do something, to keep that energy sector and its development in Canada,’ and to accede to some of these other demands.”

Manning concluded his pedagogy with a little shrug, asking: “Is there some way that fear of the United States can be used as a lever to get some of the things that the West needs to have addressed?”

I’m using Breivik as a stand in for mass shooters, where the guilt is obvious and undisputed by all parties. (And, well, being unable to un-kill them is the point)

To this day, I fail to see why we keep people like Anders Breivik around

I was invited to Ottawa as a humble grad student to present my research. I have very warm feelings for their Classics Department and university, even if I almost froze to death due to my poor packing (thank heavens for the toque and scarf I bought at The Bay).

Tbh big language families with far-flung outposts is weirdly common in NA. Athabaskan has Navajo and Apache, Algic has Yurok and Wiyot, and Siouan has Stoney. If you’re willing to go into Mexico, there’s Huastec for Mayan.
