Have fun pitching your fellow Canadians on a massive regression in standard of living that hits your poor & first nations communities hardest while becoming a economic vassal state to the CCP, who literally does not give a fuck.

That is not the option in front of us as voters, or as a nation.

The poor and first nations communities have not been well served by the current paradigm, and in fact the best outcome for them is generally left leaning policy that actually honors seniority of water rights, enforcement of environmental laws, and policies that support critical first nations fisheries and other resources (stop damming salmon runs, displacing the tribes and selling the water and power to large corporate farmers would be a great start).

It is the political right that has largely trampled the poor and first nations into the dust over the past decades, on both sides of that border.

No one's saying it will be fun. They're saying it needs to be done
wait until climate-induced mass famine hits them. Literally no one is going to give a shit about languages, cultures, or nations when hundreds of millions are dying of starvation.
