  • Yes. All of the above. Any small resistance is resistance. Small acts become large when many do them. Learn how to protect yourself and your neighbor even if you’re just reading up or watching videos. Educate yourself on anything that can help should an emergency of some sort arise. Take a first aid class, take a martial arts class, get registered as a gun owner or go to a local range just to educate yourself on how to, join a local drone enthusiasts group or buy a drone and practice with it, join a hacker collective, stock trauma medical supplies, learn how to grow food or cook, volunteer at a local food bank or shelter. encourage your political reps to divest CPP from American holdings and investment firms. Encourage your workplace unions to do the same.

    Mostly…Do anything that will help your fellow Canadians even if you don’t agree with their religious beliefs, sexual orientation, political ideologies etc. Coming together as a people is what we need right now.





  • We are polite because if we weren’t our own society would crumble. We would kill one another. It isn’t as much politeness as it is a necessary respect for our fellow man.

    We are well known for being ruthless in battle. Not just WWI, we have a very colorful war history spanning up to modern day.

    Both our national sports are played at a speed and ferocity that is hard to rival. During gameplay in one of these sports, when someone is offended they are expected to fist fight over that offence. EXPECTED. They then get asked to “sit out” and cool down for a literal couple of minutes before they are permitted to rejoin the action. These games also often erupt into fights in the stands and parking lots not just between the players. Often between the parents of these players should the players themselves be at an age where they are not permitted to fight within the game. If it’s playoffs or a big game no one cares what you broke or what hurts. You lace em up and get the fuck out there. It’s important.

    “Just fuckin’ punch 'em in the mouth” is something we all get told by our parents as kids having to deal with bullies. I’ve also told my kids this. It works and we do it. Fuck the school suspension.

    We all own guns. We don’t use 'em like you do but we certainly know how and so do our kids. Our rural brethren are masters in the bush, mountains and oceans because we enjoy it.

    We have vast resources of young French Canadians who have travelled the world and learned all sorts of crazy skills no one else can manage just because they could. They’re athletic (reference: the French power gut, this category of Canadian also includes Acadian and Metis) and keen to fuck shit up. They’re like Australians, you find them everywhere you go. They party a lot. They’re friendly as shit and kinda goofy. But when they get pissed…they’re the real ones.

    We also tried to exterminate our natives and still do but they’re fuck off strong and resilient. They’re getting pissed too. You really really really don’t want that. Trust me on this one. You just don’t. Imagine the toughest person you know the. Times that by colonialism, religion, disease, sugar and an unshakable spirit. Also beyond athletic and revengeful.

    And many of us are not nationalistic. We would not be going into it for your country or our flag or our leader. We would be doing it for our families and neighbors and friends and people like us around the world who are over the bullshit. When you are fighting for that there is no beating it. Americas leaders could stand to have learned this numerous times in their past.

    Poor choice indeed.
