Victims of a war, they did not choose. At the very least we can make them feel welcome and hopefully send them more weapons.

One of my friends is a newfie, best kind. He sounds almost exactly like this dude in the video but picked up some Northen slang. I don’t know to much about Peterson. Probably he’s from Ontario though. All of Ontario has radically different accents, I’m from the northern hell part and talk like the stereo type from the video… But Southren can be anything from Woodbine Posh to Toronto teeth kiss special ( https://youtube.com/shorts/Lt4PYWqBo48?feature=shared )

I do alot of traveling south, see alot of hockey and football games. I’m not saying it’s alien, it probably is the closest thing we have to a brother. That’s why I said we love them, Yada Yada Yada. But we are different and that view is becoming skewed. Also, I can almost say with certainty your from Ontario. As a Maritimer, Quebecer, Northerner, Indigenous or BC’er. Would probably say how wildly different it is. As we are both huge countries with mosaics of local cultures. But Ontario has a similar culture to Illinois, Minnesota or other northern states. Also, rural states are funny… Stopped at a roadside dinner in Minni a month ago and posters of Biden with Devil horns everywhere and no one flinched…

1. I mean accent is such a strange thing to say is similar. You can’t compare a new York accent to Toronto. This video is a good sum https://youtu.be/9XpVHbFsLDQ?feature=shared

2. I mean if we support you guys, we’re dead and we gained you guys 3 hours xD. Also, politically speaking I don’t think anyone on Lemmy is deciding our international relations.

3. I grew up with Mr Bean on the CBC and Monty Python movies on CBC on Sundays.(Showing my age) I can’t say for sure ether way but that’s a wild assumption xD.

4.??

5.??

6. We have 70 less guns per person than the states.

This may be ranty, so sorry in advance. Canadians and Americans are very different. They are our brothers and we love them.That being said politically, socially and culturally we are very far apart. I would not be offended if someone thought I was American but I would correct them. I belive the equivalent would be if someone said “Oh your a Scott?” neighbour’s for over a 1000 years but not the same. I’m assuming your British sorry. Also, to add we do have a growing presence of “We should be part if America” weirdos. Who would say something like “Canada has no culture”.

I wouldn’t even consider it all intent to steal. Our Walmart is nothing but self checkouts and they put the oldest slowest dude at there only checkout. My friend walked out without scanning the cat food at the bottom of her cart and we didn’t realize until the parking lot. No one has training so you can’t expect 100% success.

I know, no one here is voting for this guy but holy fuck. Glad I could die from Indian government involvement and he wouldn’t give a shit.

My friend is trans she, grew up with hetero church going parents, teachers who talked about the hetero families and basically had no exposure to trans ideas til her 20s. I dont think knowing about something gives full on desire on top of that you can’t transition until your 18 and a individual adult…

Generally I think the world is mad. It’s bad here but it’s bad everywhere and worse in alot of places.

Public image is only getting better!! Right? Right!?!

I can’t read the article but it kind of depends on context… If it’s anyone who was apart of tbe Nazi party ya fuck that. Anyone who was apart of the Nazi Party should be buried in history and only brought up to be shit on. If it’s someone like Larry Thorne, who was a Finnish soldier who once Finland fell fled to Germany. Joind the German army to fight Soviet Aggression on his homeland but never was a Nazi. Then he actually fled to the USA and was a war hero in Vietnam saving his fellow soldiers. I think its a tad acceptable, but articles blocked so that may of been a empty history lesson xD…

Edit: Dudes affiliated with Nazis fuck him

Reminds me of thar episode of Scrubs. Where an old doctor is doing an outdated and more dangerous procedure when a new one exists that has zero risk. The head of Medicine has to fire him because medicine is always evolving and you have to be ready to save lives.

We’re from a “redneck” part of Ontario and we have a family friend who’s a principle. The principle said 99% of the kids get LGBT+, it’s about mutual respect and lifestyle. He says 80% of the parents don’t get it though…

My friend and I discuss this all the time 70% of the population is center left to left. The Liberal NDP split is tough, I don’t want these popularist parties (PPC,New Blue, Maveric) are a cancer but I kinda sometimes wish they gained more traction to split the vote more.
