PP is my MP. He thinks with his MAGA boner. This would fall on deaf ears.

OK, I don’t disagree with those points.

The EU would be a massive undertaking, but it removes a vulnerability we have, which is our unfortunate dependence on the United States, which quite frankly, may not exist next year, let alone 10 years from now. Where I disagree is on the need to be friendly. We need not be friendly if they are hostile. We don’t need to be hostile in return, but we shouldn’t endeavour to act like we have in the past. At this point in time, they are a hostile nation engaged in active sabotage against us.

I’m also not worried about companies fleeing to the US. Firstly, I believe that unless they fix their shit right now, there will not be a US in the near future. Business hates uncertainty, and the stock markets are showing that. The EU has many business that HQ in the EU even under their “stifling” regulations. That would continue to be true for many Canadian businesses especially when those markets open up entirely to them, without the worry of currency imbalance affecting their ability to sell.

Why would we want to return to a normal where one guy can wreck our economy. Not to mention, the US will never be the same again. Why the fuck would we want to lash ourselves to an empire that is dying in real time?

I like this as a measuring stick.

A big part of the reason the US didn’t join sooner is because they weren’t anti-nazi.
