I sincerely hope you are right. I always have to remind myself reddit/Lemmy are the 'Left'. I thought there was a chance Doug Ford was going to get voted out from reading reddit last month. Instead, landslide victory with dismal voter turn out.

I just read an article on reddit that said she's taking a group down to the US with her with the goal of separating from Canada/joining the US. I have genuine concerns for our country.
I have a cash back VISA card. The week after Jan 20, I pulled my card info off every online service I use, stopped using the card entirely, and a few days ago canceled it completely. It was a tough choice. I generally earned about $600 a year cash back, but it's time to free ourselves of America and forge our own path. I don't really see the Can/American relationship ever being repaired at this point. Time to move on.
Too bad for Chrystia Freeland. I think she would have been a great PM. I watched her speak a few times, and she is well-spoken, smart, and has that little edge like she'd really destroy you if you forced her to.
I would have voted for either, though, and I'm happy for Mark Carney. He'll do a great job.
There was just an outcry for her inviting election interference from the US. Officials did not agree, very frustrating.
