Now that there's pinned posts, I figure i should introduce myself.

Most call me Doc, or Googly Doc. I'm a freelance RPG writer, humourist, voice actor, podcaster, novelist, public speaker, and TTRPG GM.

I am also a neurodivergent omnisexual progressive humanist who is quick on the block trigger.

....Tom Kent called "sugar daddy federalism":

The Canadian Bar Association has harsh words for the authoritarian Smith conservative government in Alberta.

Why is it that only conservatives want to be dictators?

Oh, right. Because when it comes down to it, their policies are WILDLY unpopular, even if it takes time for some people to wake up.

John is right. As long as there are those with the will and courage to fight, there is always hope... always a chance for the tide to turn.

YES THIS. If you are one of the "all is lost" people please feel free not to say so in the comments of my posts, it'll save me the two seconds it takes to "hide for everyone" your comments. All is not lost. All is never lost. I prefer not to have you infecting others with your doomerism in my space.
"This fucking sucks" and "all is lost" are two different sentences.

Don't say the second when you mean the first.

And yet I still see some Americans not getting why Canadians are pissed off, why we are turning our backs on America when we are able, and why we are actively fostering relationships elsewhere.
