"Canadians may have gone in for wokeness in recent years, it is true, but there is the matter of their bloody-minded DNA. It was not that long ago that they harvested baby seals—the ones with the big, sad, adorable brown eyes—with short iron clubs. They love hockey, a sport that would have pleased the emperors and blood-crazed plebeians and patricians of ancient Rome if they could only have figured out how to build an ice rink in the Colosseum." 😅

Above all...what's the point? No one in their right mind wants to live there except for Canadians! Its fucking cold! Its amazing anything happens there at all. Regardless, it's their country and Trump is one full blown grade A dumbass. I like Canadians!

I don't think you realize... the American deep south and southwest are rapidly becoming uninhabitable.

Canada is primed to be a destination once torontos climate becomes more like missouris.

I wish I was kidding.

If the climate keeps getting warmer then huge parts of Canada will become temperate and farm-able, while places that are currently temperate will become too hot to live in or farm.

Im west coast. We had 2 days of snow this year about 4 inch deep. Ive lived east coast and its the same as maryland weather. Its no more cold than what you guys get.

To be fair, I live in the middle and it hit -40°C this winter

I live in San Diego. You are quite a bit colder than what we get. You can keep your snow, if I want to go snowboarding, I have an ocean less than a mile away, and there's always the mountains an hour and a half drive to the east.

Surfing and snowboarding are remarkably similar activities.
