@FortySacks@Tristyn_Jones1 Neither do Montreal, Toronto, Ottawa, or any other city in Canada. There are completely separate channels of academic discernment to improve the quality of the language and harmonise it without promoting provincial lexical corruptions and malapropisms.
Very revealing of the deeply disordered psychology underpinning your entire worldview, if one assumes the intended reaction was supposed to be an emotional, trauma-induced tantrum. Just very pathetic and third world frankly.
Something needs to be done to completely dissociate French Canadian and Quebec as two distinct labels. The complete association of the language and connection to France proper with this kind of buckbroken psychiatric case has poisoned the well of an otherwise wonderful language and cultural history for the millions of ethnic French living outside Quebec.
The most important thing to remember about any romantic ideal is it isn’t real and is not possible in the reality inhabited by human chimpanzees we all share. Otherwise, you’ll find yourself untethered and disappointed with what the world offers you instead. Everything requires justification, of itself, to itself, and constantly.
Every day, your immune system justifies your existence against the world, your heart justifies your existence against gravity wanting to pool your blood stagnantly. The moment either justification buckles, you die.
Nature has a way of destroying unjustified things with very little fanfare or emotion. You and I will share a watery grave aboard this sinking ship my Francophone cousin, and that right swiftly.
You have a provincial government with a premier and a provincial parliament governing you already. At least bother to come up with something that isn’t recycling the grievances of C*talonians or Cors*cans.
You already govern yourselves as much, if not more so, than any other province or provincial population in the entire country does.
@GustaveLac63400@FortySacks This is on the level of Latin American resentment politics, you’ve implicitly identified yourself as the Mestizo and desperately want to concoct new barriers to avoid having to share a label with the Criollo you blame for having kept you down o algo.
Schizophrenic nonsense.
@Babygravy9 This woman, conservatively, is at least 40-50lbs overweight. Her face looks like an inflamed boar snout and even her voice sounds heavy-set and piggish.
Behold the absolute state of what “the right” worships now. Mediocre homosexuals LARPing body-positive “vitalism”. Gross.
@ZoomerChetBaker@NightCityTimes@Synergistic@ThaBeefDev “In some ways it already has since the political climate changed back”
This is such brazen cope it almost makes someone want to chuckle rather than spitefully recoil at it.
The market demonstrably worse, globally, since 2020, it’s not getting better. Anywhere.
The Union Jack can be appreciated as an ethnic symbol and not purely as any sort of institutional loyalty to the UK of Great Britain. All the same, Great Britain is our other home, and not “foreign”.
Au contraire were the country to ever emerge from this rut (unlikely) it would be incumbent on it to go and salvage both the motherland, and the two siblings in the southern hemisphere. They are all, by extension, ours.
@Legally_LVS@ericglas123 It isn’t “someone else’s flag” unless you yourself are already a foreigner in this place, in which case, your input is not of any considerable value.
@TheBlackHorse65 Not only is no such separation going to happen (because the “we” clause in this is so diffuse and meaningless), there is no incentive to do so. No alternative incentive structure that offers the social status that delaying expensive “settling” as long as possible does.
@kevinf567@tomhfh I hate this on so many levels: firstly because UK Government should be be prefixed with 'the,' secondly because it should be "UK's" (possessive), and thirdly because United Kingdom is not the name of a country, it's a descriptor of the government type (like Republic of).
@ofreacharound 10 years? Franchises with way higher guard rails got totally ruined in far less time, and Star Wars was already DOA with the first Disney movie. Flogging the desiccated corpse of a horse.
@VittelMax Even easier in this case due to multiple visible (even from only a front angle) skin doodles on both arms, pelvic area. The usual mark of the low IQ, dim-witted cow of modernity. You have to be some kind of African or Dravidian to find this mesmerising or “a delight”.
Apparently "what makes us uniquely Canadian" is American propaganda from the Ellis Island days, 120 years ago.
"What makes us uniquely Canadian" is getting more gold stars from American academics.
"We're a better melting pot than America. We're better at doing the things that Americans brag about being good at".
Leaflibs pride themselves on being the best Americans on paper, according to spreadsheet metrics that only Americans care about, and then call it the Canadian identity.
And I get it. Monkey see, monkey do is the modus operandi of the middle of the bell curve. But what I want to know is how it's "unique".
More broadly, “engineering”, much like artistic ability or athleticism and so on, is not a teachable skill beyond mandarin memorisation of mathematics, material study, and using CAD.
It is a genetically inherited ability, and people are either born with it or not. You cannot teach the every man to be an “engineer” any more than you can teach any random idiot to be an Olympic swimmer, good artist/author, etc.
Then it’s pointless, the average M. Eng is already borderline mentally retarded in my own anecdotal experience dealing with them, and the average Mach. is an overweight hick. Two evolutionary dead ends.
M. Eng needs to be overhauled such that they’re only graduating men capable of both the design and execution lines, that is, envisioning, sketching, drawing, modelling, coding, and CNCing + assembling things independently. Useless people otherwise, and handing engineering degrees to people with IQs of 105 has made it a joke of a career path.

@SpaceWalkerReal Sentimental nonsense like all other Canadian RWer slop. The only proper end to Diefenbaker’s term was honourable suicide, which he did not do; therefore the shame of his many lukewarm-tempered failures has never been atoned for.
“Avro CF-105 mang” chimpanzees.
@ChromeBarracuda Thank Hashem the entire rotten imperial edifice is demographically doomed. Unfortunately, it won’t happen before every other European state is also demographically doomed. Such is the will of the Holy of Holies.
