Regardless of whether or not these particular comments are US intelligence, I am 100% convinced that Trump is going to try and make Alberta the Canadian Donbas.
They'll do their little Wexit vote thing and they'll lose, but there will be a massive amount of disinfo in all of the places you'd expect saying it was rigged, and they'll just escalate from there. Who knows when the guns break out, but I feel like there are people down south who are planning on this leading to a military "liberation"
If you'd have told me even 4 months that there was a slight chance to beat PP, I'd have been ecstatic. I hope that his career (and the political feasibility of faschy candidates like him) implodes after tonight.
You're right about this - as a US / Canadian dual citizen, getting a new citizenship is quite an ordeal and not everyone who applies is approved. The nursing experience you mentioned in a separate comment might be enough to qualify for a work permit and then permanent residence. I know that various provincial governments up here are quietly putting in immigration policies that severely cut immigration numbers, but focus heavily on recruiting healthcare workers.
Come to Canada, we want and need nurses!
Maybe a bit out of scope for "gardening", but get to know how to sustain the life in both your garden as well as your community with as many sustainable inputs as possible.
Make your own compost and save your own seeds.
Network with people in your area.
Learn about the CSA farms in your area and see if you can contribute your little garden space to their effort in a collective manner in exchange for a complimentary CSA share (aka you use your entire plot to grow a large amount of some random veggie or herb to contribute to their program in exchange for a full season of their subscription).
Contribute excess veggies to the food bank.
Also, I hate to be "that guy", but being a Canadian/American who pays attention to news headlines in both countries, I've gotta say that a shockingly substantial amount of your neighbors have no idea how fucked their world is going to be for the foreseeable future. Shit's hitting the fan in a way that may be even bigger than 2008, and I feel like so many of us never actually recovered from that...
All that to say, "gardening" is really, really important now
Infrastructure and/or stagflation
They are going to destroy things we deeply love and hold to be sacred, as casual as we may normally feel about defining things as "sacred"
I feel like The Onion should host their own PeerTube instance, just for the sake of using an incredibly cheeky domain name like ifuckinghatewatching.video or something cooler like onion.media or something
My body is not ready for the amount of alcohol and dancing I am going to force myself to take part in on the day this motherfucker dies and goes to hell.
Literally, the most destructive and evil human on the planet since Hitler. I can't wait until the worms get him. I kind of feel bad for them, but I guess it's part of the job.
"Socially liberal" right up until the point that we start talking about worker's rights, the dignity of poor people, and the exploitation of cheap slave labor on the other side of the world
