Might I suggest a visit to Leonard's hometown. Leonard attended the same High School as Kamala but he attended it before the revolution and Kamala attended during the revolution.
Montreal has a lot of American expats who prefer to live in a family friendly liberal democracy and we need immigrants and we love Americans, Russians, Chinese, Egyptians Mexicans, Hondurans, Haitians or anybody who likes the idea of participatory democracy where power is bottom up.
Even our Amazon workers have healthcare, access to education, a high standard of living, freedom, democracy and security.
You know Grape I am old man and we are a liberal democracy. We are the government. We have freedom of the press and corruption is political suicide.
Your Civil War goes back to 1603 and the death of Elizabeth I. Elizabeth I ruled with the welfare of her people as her first concern. Her successors were unfit to rule and unfit to serve. What followed in 1640 was a bloody Civil War that ended in Britain becoming a democracy in 1688 as parliament assumed power and the crown becoming the symbol of the Empire.
Our Authoritarian government acts with the consent and authority given by we the people.
You have no knowledge or understanding of how Canada functions. The Northwest West territories is not a parliamentary democracy it is an assembly of sovereign nations and Canada being only a participating member where we require consensus to create law.
America is authoritarian. Hannah Arendt wrote The Origin of Totalitarianism in 1951 you might want to pick up a copy it was true in 1951 and the world hasn't changed much.
America thinks participatory democracy is authoritarian and oligarchy is freedom. I really don't have any response to nonsense.
Thank you. Not many are willing to acknowledge we are watching bathetic farce. We used to fight nonsense and now we fight for farce. They call it human tragedy but it all comedy that why the clowns rule.
I was born in 1948 and I love Orwell. Do you remember what he said.
"The further a society drifts from truth, the more it will hate those that speak it. Truth is the New Hate Speech. During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act."
Why do you believe America doesn't deserve what it is getting? America voted for Reagan when Carter told it to turn down the thermostat and put on a sweater. It voted for Obama and a promise of change when Obama represents what's right with America not what needs to be fixed.
Canada gets better every day even as America decays.
Actually, I used to have an office in Montreal and love that city (except it was 75 degrees and sunny today in Houston). Let me, ever so gently and humbly, correct you on one thing: Canadians needn't welcome Americans as immigrants, as all Canadians are Americans. I am a citizen of the one country in the Americas (maybe the world) with no name. We all live in states that have names, but our country has no name. There is a good reason for that, but I don't want to get all political and explain all that. Suffice it to say we are all Americans here, brother.
My Uncle lived in Corpus Christi I only talked to Blacks and Latinos, "real" Texans don't show their ID and that reduced the number of people I could speak to. I wish Kinky could have been elected governor.
I hope you enjoyed the story of the Three Billy Goats Gruff. Rather than stop you from crossing the bridge I invited you to join me in the meadow. What makes you so afraid of truth?
Canada is a big country with many forms of government. Quebec isn't Ontario, Alberta isn't BC and the Northwest Territories government isn't a parliamentary democracy but sovereign nations needing consensus to pass bills. Canada being just another sovereign nation. In Quebec we even have a Department of Immigration. Quebec is going to eliminate fossil fuels in 2030 and Alberta needs to sell beef and oil. British Columbia has a democratic socialist government and Alberta is a Texas satellite.
Sure we have problems but this is the best country on the planet in which to live. We are free, we are prosperous and we actually have ears throughout the world. We know China Russia and the USA are not really friends or enemies they are self serving empires riding their roller coasters and run by their Peter Pans.
My wife and I are still together and when we returned together to the land of my birth to find that in Quebec, marriage is a civil contract we got married again by a notary and like all civil contracts they are not written in stone.
That actually did help. Thanks. I'll just sit out in the hallway for now. Someday my ship will come in.

And an authoritarian government. No thanks. Canada has fallen

More mindless drivel from e.pierce
A very sanctimonious potty mouth.
Looking at yourself in the mirror again?
Not at all, just behaving rather like you.

I actually go for Roy Clark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eh1v-_2e4Y0
My wife was born in Nashville but I really miss John Hartford and his joy at being alive.
My wife and I loved John Prine and Iris Dement singing In Spite of Ourselves but in my dotage it is good to remember gentle on my mind.
