This Minnesotan couldn't be prouder of our neighbors to the north. 🥹❤️🇨🇦

Same goes for us proud liberal North Dakotans.

The same goes for the Brits - trump seems to have forgotten that Canada is part of the Commonwealth, and King Charles is it's titular head!

If trumpie keeps THIS up, the only monument he's going to se if he DOES have a state visit, is the inside of the Tower of London. Complete with headman's block. There's not much in that head of his, but I don't suppose he wants to spend the rest of eternity carrying it under his arm.

Nah, his ghost would be booted out.

Mainly by all the other U.K. ghosts...

One can only hope that the orange line will do the same thing here in the US for the midterm elections and beyond. I love that Canadians woke up and answered the bell.

The boorish man who bragged about kissing and groping women without their permission, has been accused of sexual assault by 20+ women, and found civilly liable for sexual assault of E Jean Carroll still behaves that way, this time toward nations. No means no, you creeptastic rapist piece of shit. Canada's message could not be any clearer, which means he still won't get it.

Truth… he won’t get it…

Congratulations to Canada! Much as we the American people love you guys, we love you best when you are free to be who you are and NOT a defeated part of the U.S. It’s always more fun to play when your friends want to play as well.

I lived in a small Village near Montreal long ago. Because I was an American and did not speak French, one guy stood up from the table, pointed at me and said in perfect English, you speak French in my home or leave. Go back to America. Ouch. I'm not sure how the French are feeling now about Canadian Unity, they've always wanted to break free. This election saved Canada from itself. And it's nice to see that Canadians United to fight not only their own tyranny, but ours as well. Go Canada.

Québec actually saved the Liberals this time around, ironically. Lots of seats flipped from Bloc Québécois to Liberal, including my riding.

Conservatives increased their numbers in many other areas of Canada. Vote splitting also cost us. So all is not as rosy as it seems. The rise of the far right is very concerning.

Nancy's avatar

Mainly in Alberta? Or are they going more the equivalent of Purple here (from Red [conservative, Republican, etc.] to Blue [not])?

And it's not just in Canada... X-P

"When I find myself in times of trouble/The 12th Doctor comes to me:"

Especially around 1:59-2:30, and 3:30-4:10, and -- oh, heck, just watch the whole 10:39 thing. You'll be glad you did. :)

(For those not in the know about Doctor Who in general and this scene in particular, the Doctor is a humanoid alien who travels in a spaceship/time machine called the TARDIS, often fights the space-Nazi Daleks [things that look like armed and armored upside-down ice cream cones that roll around yelling "Ex-ter-min-ate! Ex-ter-min-ate!"; most people know of them, even if they've never seen an episode], loves music, and has been recently called The Timeless Child [believe me: that explains SO MUCH! :D] in a recent incarnation [the BBC came up with that idea, of multiple actors playing the role, to explain them having to retire the first Doctor's actor, William Hartnell, due to chronic illnesses].

Another species who wants to invade Earth [there are several ;D] are the Zygons, pictured in that scene. They're natural shape-shifters, and the one he's debating things with is mimicking the other main character, the Doctor's female companion, to be able to access the secret Black Archives under London [shh! Need To Know!], full of captured alien tech. The debatee gal is a young terrorist, who wants her people -- now refugees, allowed to live on Earth as long as they look human, a situation the Doctor had facilitated -- to be able to live in their natural forms, and is willing to kill whoever she has to, in whatever quantity, to make that happen.

By the end of that slightly over 10 1/2 minute scene, he's completely changed her mind. She eventually ends up joining UNIT, the secret international organization who, among other things, runs the Black Archives. One of their workers is Osgood, the lab coat gal, and their current boss is the gal at the other weapon.)

French Canadians are so cuddly, eh?

Catherine's avatar

Please don’t generalize. All countries have their bigots. Signed, a French Canadian.

HI2thDoc's avatar

Sorry, poor attempt at humor

HI2thDoc's avatar

Well, often stereotypes have a grain of truth in them. . .

All stories, even myths, have a basis in reality, no matter how tiny...

We're no one to be criticizing another country about bigotry these days.

Christie sebo's avatar

Well I wouldn't want to base it on the one I married or his gaggle of geese. Lots of nice people there though.

Carney's victory speech was a lesson for American liberals.

Samantha's avatar

I think we now need to look towards our southern border. His Supreme Vileness signed another order, placing US soldiers within his newly created 170 mile long 'military installation' that is a part of another base a couple hundred miles away. This new act will also give the military, homeland security et al ownership of ALL public lands and giving our military the power to search and arrest anyone who sets foot on that land. In other words, he has given the military the right and responsibility to act against any and all Americans. Will our soldiers follow him? Many already are. He is making war on us and using our own soldiers against us. Like everything else the Orange Miasma does, this is illegal. Will our courts and lawmakers fight back? And how will the protests go, now that he may be able to order our soldiers to open fire into crowds?

Nancy's avatar

Wait, wait, what? OUR OWN (fucking!) PUBLIC LANDS?! =8-0

I hadn't heard of that one yet... X-P

My dad, who would've been a career Park Ranger if he hadn't run afoul of a Peter Principle middle manager who didn't like him, would be spinning in his grave like a lathe spindle if he wasn't in an urn. X-P

THOSE LANDS BELONG TO THE PEOPLE! */US/*!!

So, say, in an attempt to invade Canada, would he militarize Yellowstone? Olympia in Washington state? Anyone setting foot in THEIR OWN FUCKING NATIONAL PARKS (including all of those along our West, Gulf, and East Coasts) getting escorted out with extreme prejudice, if not killed?? >:-(

Fuck that whore-piss-drinking piece of shit. Deport his flabby ass to Russia right now. Let him make his idiot mistakes there and Zelenskyy will win in a week, on every term he wants.

Samantha's avatar

Yup. Here is the link to a Rachel Maddow video.

And we all know what the administration really thinks about what the people want. And he is opening the public lands to oil and coal drilling/mining.

I wish Americans had been as smart... but here we are.

Karen's avatar

Kudos to the Canadians, for paying attention to the warning signs so many Americans ignored, or assumed couldn't affect *them*. Not that I can imagine why any country with a landmass so similar to that of the US would want to be relegated to the status of "state"; I think that takes a special type of insanity such as that demonstrated by the orange idiot.

Nancy's avatar

Ostensibly, it should've been 10 new states, one for each province, but 9 of them (barring Alberta?) would probably have Democrat Senators and Representatives... ;)

Karen's avatar

You're expecting rationality from a demonstrably irrational person.

Catherine Bridge's avatar

Mark Carney is the right man for the job. With his experience in finance and economics on a global level, he has already outsmarted Trump. Thank you, Canada!

Nancy's avatar

Amen! :D

I was breathing SUCH sighs of relief, then cheering, when I heard about it! :D

Jan Frederick's avatar

Unfortunately, I have never been to Canada, but I have at least 2 ancestors who were French Acadians who got kicked out of Nova Scotia by the British back in the 1700's ( not sure if it was 1600's or 1700's). They went to south Louisiana to live from there. That makes me a little Canadian, right?

I say congrats to the Liberal party of Canada!!! Thank you, God! Amen! Awomen! Ramen!

Clearly Trump’s soulless, heartless nature is being shown for all to witness. God’s people are viewing His work revealing who this creature is. Jesus knows that Trump is the Anti Christ and he is hard at work. Having faith in Jesus will help to be strong and courageous and stand up against Trump. God is delighted that his people are doing just that! 🙏🌟🕊️🌟🙏

I notice the background color of the Liberal winner is red. I think it’s time for democratic candidates to use red as the back drop as well. It would hopefully confuse many voters into thinking the candidate is Republican, lol.

A R's avatar

Red is the main color on Canada’s flag.

Yo! Soooo funny 😁 😂

THANK YOU GOD!! 🇨🇦 🙌

Indeed, ‘tis a win for the light side of the force! ✨
