The country that freezes bank accounts of protesters and censors free speech is worried the “far-right” might take over the U.S. and do what leftists are doing in Canada.

Fox News
"Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly says Canada has been considering a ‘game plan’ for how it would respond if the United States takes a far-right, authoritarian shift after next year’s presidential elections," Dylan Robertson wrote in a piece shared by National Post. "’We are certainly working on scenarios,’ Joly said in French during an interview with a Montreal radio station Wednesday."

I can’t even come up with words to express the level of ridicule this deserves. I think it reaches the level where it doesn’t even deserve a response at all.

Canada is authoritarian and Trudeau is owned or influenced by China and Klaus. Canada needs regime change.

I’ve gone back and forth over the years wondering if people like this are genuinely retarded or are playing some sort of demoralization game.

I currently think this statement is some sort demoralization campaign.

'Far-right' and 'authoritarian' is a contradiction in terms.

America needs to go ahead and annex most of western Canada just to remind them who Daddy is.

They always accuse others of what they are doing.

Like all leftists, they understand the power of PROJECTION and use it as often as they can.

They’ve been brainwashed to think anything to the right is fascism.

Canada can frick right on off. We'll keep Alberta.

In the coming decades, pretty much any country not aligned with the U.S. and having access to our markets is screwed. USMCA and SE Asia/Australia/NZ are going to be the only truly comfortable places. No way in hell Canada backs out of that.

More plandemic, more climate change arson in southern Canada, hate speech and misinformation laws to throw at social media companies, allowing illegals from ME to pass through on their way here.
During the trucker strike weren't they trying to have US accounts frozen too?

If Canada is scared, we need to double down.

Speaking of brainwashing, there are plenty of folks who think anything
anything even a millimeter to the left
of hardcore right is “Marxist”.

Canada benefits much more from sharing a border with the US than vice versa. They need to be reminded of that inconvenient truth as well as Mexico

From my time in Calgary, I believe many people in Western Canada (maybe not Vancouver!) would welcome admission to the USA.

Did you catch it? Goal Posts are moving, constantly. Anything that is not in keeping with the far left collectivist Marxist movement is now far right, even though it’s actually just center at best.

That’s how it’s done. Move things far left, that way center is now left, and the old center is far right.
