With a far-right populist entering the White House, what does it mean for Canada's own far-right political leader?

The amount of people here in Canada who like Drumpf and his ilk are going to hand the country to Harper’s little mouthy lapdog Pollieve (don’t care to spell his name right). Which will just be more right wing shit-stain politics.

I think there’s an “R” in it.

(don’t care to spell his name right).

I moved to Scotland from Vancouver, and you would be absolutely shocked at the number of SCOTS I’ve seen hoping he’d get in, then celebrating, or walking around or hanging out at the pub wearing MAGA hats…

Can we add a poll test question of “The second ammendment guarantees my right to bear arms Y/N?” as a minimum political awareness threshold?

I refuse to recognize the existence of Manitoba, no matter the correct answer /s

That would be the first amendment!

NO MATTER THE CORRECT ANSWER!!!

As much as I loath hearing about the man for another four years, reading Drumpf again brought a smile to my face.

The post election vitriol might help sway voters away from PP but the LPC popularity is so far in the dumps at this point that it’s highly unlikely he isn’t the next PM.

If we can keep PP to a minority we can still limit the damage he can cause.

We don’t need more tolerance in Canada. Tolerance has resulted in wide open borders and the importation of people who are celebrating terror and calling for the death of the country on our streets and university campuses. There ought to be a limit on what we are willing to tolerate.

I agree, let’s start by deporting all the white supremacists back to Ireland, England or wherever the fuck they are “from”.

I’m of Irish ancestry. Not a white supremacist, nationalist, or any sort that believes they are better than anyone else (except white supremacists).

I would gladly return to Ireland if it meant treaties were honoured.

funny thing. Go back far enough and they’re from Africa.

Man, would be interesting to see how superior most would feel if they were sent to Ethiopia to live for a few months!

Sir, this is an intervention. Please put down the fox news - there are people who care about you.

I’ve literally never watched Fox News. I’ve just observed what’s been happening in countries that have liberal immigration policies and have taken in a large number of people from a certain part of the world. You know, the people who are openly celebrating terrorism on our streets and are now “Jew-hunting” in cities like Amsterdam.

You should. You’d like it.

The irony is, I used to be left-leaning. I might have even considered myself fairly progressive. That all changed over the past year.

You mean like the white folk who spouted the phrase “kill the indian, save the man”?

Those people?

Yes, be gone with all of them.

Would you care to cite some specific examples that you didn’t just repeat off of your uncle’s Facebook wall?
