It's called 'buttering him up'. Narcissists are easily charmed. Nice stick handling, Mr Prime Minister

And whether she wins or loses, they can start the petition over again as soon as the election is over. Canada is watching, hoping to see Albertans see this through. Those working on this, and those who sign, are Canada's team!

She is not concerned, in the short-run, about pleasing the people of Alberta. She's focused on a longer-term subversive strategy to implement fascist rule in Canada. She and Poilievre are the leading edge of the fascist insurgency in Canada.

Just move to Canada and carry on as you were. No problem.

Looking for a way to increase sales overnight? Make sure someone monitors the email account you give on your website for customers seeking a quote. Don't assume that's happening. Based on my experience, you wouldn't believe how many businesses never reply.

Training grounds, but also to normalize the presence and use of the military among civilians. Once the purge of non-loyalist military leaders is complete, they will invade Canada at their earliest convenience.

Once they finish purging and replacing military leaders who are non-loyalists, they will invade Canada at their earliest convenience.

Once they've finished purging military leaders who are ideologically impure, they will invade Canada at their earliest convenience.

...stand idle. The time for late-night jokes and daily lunchroom have-you-heard-what-he's doing-now chatter to end. You must take action and not relent, or America is over.

...and all those who have sworn to defend the constitution are either replaced by Trump loyalists, or feel too afraid or powerless to act, or have happily betrayed the republic. Evil thrives when good people stand idle...

He violates the constitution and justifies it in the name of yet another invented emergency. In short , he is the leader of a fascist take-over of the United States...

He's replacing the leadership of democratic institutions with wingnuts, self-righteous vacuous zealots, the amoral, and some of the finest examples of the manosphere that the internet can provide. He's using government resources to seek revenge on opponents.

Trump is purging history and truth, 'non-aryans', and opposing views and values. He's erasing the last 60 years of social progress, pushing queers and blacks out of jobs and ending their careers.

Trump is doing this to cause people of conscience to leave the National Guard, to be replaced by loyalists. It's the same reason for all the outrageous things he's doing. He has 4 years to take over as much of the institutional leadership and members as possible. Then, he invades Canada.

The Minister is myopically reciting dogma without thought. No decent society excludes people because they want their language to never change. Language is always changing. Always has and always will.

The foreign fascists look for issues that divide and then interfere in order to inflame the division. Look behind the scenes far enough, and there they are.

Why are so many people still in denial about the north american political environment? The US is now under fascist control and Canada is experiencing a fascist insurgency. Everyone needs to see what is right in front of us all. #cdnpoli
