Nothing, if you never go back to the US.

I hope it is true. Some of them need yelling at. They're used to coasting on vibes and now they have a boss who calls that out.

There will probably be a committee and a speech. That should do it. If not they could announce funding. It doesn't matter what for, because no one will check up on it.

Legally I don't know that we can revoke citizenship, but the separatists are really giving "have your cake and eat it too" vibes with this.

Like, do you want to leave or not? If Canada is so awful to you, why would you keep it?

It reminds me of a teenager threatening to move out because they have to clean their room.

That's solving the wrong problem IMO. If you want less floor crossing then address why people do it.

We have the most whipped vote of any Westminster system. In theory MP's can vote against their party. In practice they don't because they'll get kicked out.

It's harder and harder for MP's to change or choose the leader. It's effectively a single choice that you're stuck with them until they resign. There are very limited in how they can replace or hold a leader to account.

These are the first two I thought of, but there are other issues to work through too.

This woman needs better thumbnails. Everything she posts is a poorly cropped picture of her face.

Which elected leaders in Canada are socialists? I can't think of any.

Blocking the box. The car entered the intersection without being able to exit it and now cross traffic is blocked even though they have the light. This can cause cascading delays as it backs up going the other way.

You're getting downvoted, but it's true. Ford has also passed laws making changes to existing roads more difficult.

It would be funnier if everyone but them got raptured. If heaven includes those assholes I'd just as soon stay here.

I bet she won't end up doing that either. This is too much for the federalists and not enough for the seperatists. The knives will come out soon.

Not needless. And no, I don't care what happens to chickens.
