Charlie Chaplin felt so strongly about fighting fascism against Hitler in 1940 that he broke his silence for the first time ever to deliver this monologue
Perhaps some rightists who follow me will disagree, but as far as I'm concerned this man is infinitely more Canadian than a pro-Trump "Maple MAGA" republican or Alberta separatist of 100% English descent.
@Nate33222 I can accept deportation as a punishment for this but please dont put me ANYWHERE near JJ. I may be a republican but I sir, am no wannabe yankee!
You're definitely who my mind goes to when I think of a monarchist, a true gentleman about it ๐โโ๏ธ
I am in strong agreement with the President. Congress should immediately take up and pass a federal film tax incentive to bring back these good-paying jobs that we've lost to other countries.
Letโs work together โ Republicans and Democrats โ to get this done, and bring the movie magic back to America.
Are we going to build national infrastructure and be a grown up country or no?
Because it costs money to do things and not every project can be a pipeline or a data centre.
@NeoliberalAkiho Literally. Only damaging the cause further by feeding into the culture war that could divide to a dangerous point. And we might not come out on top next time
I was at a counter protest for those Canada First morons at Christie Pits in Toronto a while ago and was wearing a hockey jersey and a canadian flag. I think I was attacked and harrassed more by counter protestors than the goons we were supposed to be opposing.
Look, I recognize Trudeau era development policy was not economically optimal for Canada, but my god, do we live in a universe where we can agree on some basic facts in this country?
Like the fact that we had an oil price crash in 2015?
Otherwise, the trend in production expansion of oil in Alberta is nearly indistinguishable from the Harper years. Production has in fact, more than doubled since 2010!
That eastern Canada acknowledges climate change as a real thing is not equivalent to the trade actions by the US that are intended to de-industrialize Ontario and Quebec.
Ontarians, by a substantial margin, support creating true energy independence for Canada via new pipelines to supply ourselves with Albertan oil.
It is frankly shocking to see @ABDanielleSmith make such false equivalency.
I honestly dont think I saw a single other Canadian flag on our side there. Inspired me to write a substack about it. Read here if anyone is interested
