which is too bad because, although there are aspects of canadian culture that overlap with the US, canada does have a uniqueness unlike anyone else that is not being celebrated
because muh racism or some bullshit
like when they changed the national anthem last year. super gay
Nobody sings the edit fwiw
i know i don't
but they sing it at sports events
What was the edit?
Full disclosure, I know “Oh Canada, our home and native land” and that’s it
I went to a Remembrance day ceremony and we sang the OG and God Save the Queen
I'll just sing it in French if they try to fuck with it too much
instead of the line "In all they sons command" they replaced it with "In everyone's command"
because muh diversity
lol wait, y'all edited your national anthem? talk about cucked
I thought it was in all of us command
oh yeah
that's correct, beeman
Dumb bullshit
i don't even know, i don't sing it
y'all are about as sovereign as a paper bag at this point 😦
That’s the big gay
Waiting on Scheer to at least fix that ez mess
just one more things hes inappropriately touched
and that's surprising considering you're in BC
i'm waiting on Mad Max to tell these faggots how to stop ruining everything
Election is this year right? Who’s gonna win?
the election is in november. at this time, conservatives are trending towards a minority government
the liberals are collapsing
the amount of incompetence of this government has displayed is unlike anything i've ever seen. it's quite impressive
What’s a minority government? I know nothing about the parliamentary style of government
so, beeman can correct me if i'm wrong, but the way it works is that we elect representatives to the federal government
similar to congressmen, they're known as members of parliament
whichever party has the most members in the house of commons (congress) is the ruling party
if the majority of the members of parliament belong to a single party, that party has formed a majority government. the leader of that party is known as the Prime Minister
if a party has less than 50% of the members of parliament but still the most members of parliament, then they have formed a minority government
in 2015, the Liberals had a MAJORITY government and they are on their way losing power
very impressive
Yes, that's about right
We have a regional representation system not unlike the electoral college, wrt parliament/the ruling party
And the Libs had a majority solely because of Harper fatigue
yeah, Harper didn't do himself any favors at the end
