Remember, each morning:
1. There is only this one spaceship.
2. We are going to need everyone.
3. Other lifeforms are sentient and valuable.

The fully staffed weather service will undoubtedly correlate the storm strength and local effects into context to answer the diligent reporters of the mainstream media.

No, certainly not. The UCP supports oil and gas to the exclusion of all other energy enterprises, even when anyone can see that the petro corporations have had a "recovery; without jobs".

There will be no mention of the UCP legislation which has stifled any renewable energy enterprises. Enterprises that are attracting investment and creating/transitioning technological jobs in other provinces.

Boy, my last comment sounded like a right wing bot, didn't it?

To clarify, the UCP will most assuredly blame Ottawa, Trudeau, and tooth fairy for the poor employment numbers, the Shattered Healthcare system, etc.

In the USA's case, it seems to be related to violent insurrection. Echos of armed conflict, revolution, reverberating through the government and the populace.

My pet "protest poster slogan" blurb on the major differences between USA and Canada is:

USA = Revolution
Canada = Evolution

The 80 year cycle seems to have a good deal of relevance. Probably because it is related to average life spans of humans and human generational dynamics. I was made aware of it as it related to advertising/ consumer cycles in North America.

You could call the interloper 'Krasnov' or the 'Manchurian Candidate'.

If we separate from Canada, can we still be in the Canada Pension Plan? Asking for a friend.

That is "foetal debris" and yes, it is a great band name.

I have often reflected on the non voting segment of all democracies. Sleepers are a situation not considered.
Seriously, what percentage do you think are actually compromised or acting as sleeper/disruptor?

You can look at the USA's meltdown into autocracy, and then reflect on 'exactly the same moves' being made in Alberta - now - today.
Alberta is months behind Trump's GOP.
Canada is one election away from the same tragic loss of democracy and humanity.

Trump will Pump and Dump for a while, then magnanimously suspended the tariffs to negotiate with the countries of the world.

See what concessions can be gained, then tariff the tough nuts. Again.

Rinse. Repeat.

The World leaders must create an economy that sidestep the USA.
