Some observations of Canada from my 10 day house-swap with a Canadian family in Toronto:

Native Canadian people are helpful, but Canadian immigrants don't talk to strangers.
Most things are more expensive than in the US, like $6.50 Canadian for a Hagen Daas ice cream bar in Toronto Island park.
The Lindt chocolates are all forgeries, just crap in elite wrappers. Canadians are unaware of the fraud, since they've never had good chocolate.
Via Rail beats Amtrak by a long shot. Via Rail is clean, on-time, and cheap.
Tap water tastes pretty good.
There are two sales taxes instead of just one: provincial and federal.
Beer and wine in Ontario are sold only by the provincial liquor monopoly, at twice the cost as in the US. BYOB/W
Public pools are free, though run-down.
Immigrants in Toronto are the largest percentage of any city in the world.
The subway system in Toronto is efficient and inexpensive.
Milk comes in a bag rather than in a gallon jug.
Prostitution advertising is brazen and cheap.
There are many Muslim women, some completely covered in Burqas.
Women have more tattoos than in the US.
Marijuana can be smelled in the air on many major Toronto streets.
There is a visible gay population in Toronto.
There are a surprising number of Canadian flags on cars and houses.
The Canadian accent becomes more noticeable the more you hear it.

It's all the pantifa arsonists trying to raise awareness for the global warming bullshit.

I've never seen it like this though. Usually it's a lower level haze/fog type thing. It's smoke at about 2-4k' is my guess. It's weird. Usually never this early in the last 5 years or so and usually lower. It's been dusk/night basically since about 2-3pm and forecast was sunny skies.

Exactly - it's not natural, it's ARSON.

What’s worse is it is likely government or secret agency sponsored arson.

My brother in law just bought a house and is working on US citizen ship in Minnesota (not sure why they picked there). He's Canadian and doesn't want to go back. I don't know which countries have birthright citizenship, but one of their kids was born in Austria the other Italy. Like military people though the kids are American citizens.

I know with Italy you get free college if you're considered a citizen, but I'm too lazy to look up the birthright citizenship rule as it has no bearing on my life.

But yeah, he's a Canadian at 38, so it's a larger demographic than you think that want to leave the country permanently. The snowbirds will do their drive down to FL and get a place for 3 months. Those are mostly retirees. If the young people act on these numbers, Canada's economy is Fucked especially during the winter.

Losing the younger demo that can work and put money into tax revenue would kill their socialist health care program. Then factor in that in 5-10 years 50% of the population could be moved or out of country for December to March. Sales taxes would drop significantly. You can't lose a quarter to half of tax revenue and support old people.

Places like MT, MN, WI, MI could get a lot of Canadians to live there. Eastern French Canadians I think would stay. Same with Western ones. The central part of Canada, next to the US border, is where the people are that would flee. Those are immigrants I'd take all day if done legally. Work hard, nice, speak english and white (sorry to black and hispanic pat netters that lurk or are active)

Any time Canada doesn't want to be on fire would be nice. Holy shit it's smokey as shit here. Air quality warnings. It has been bad the past 5 years in the summer. It's an all day "fog" that doesn't go away.
261   Maga_Chaos_Monkey   2025 Aug 2, 10:59am  

Great. Hopefully that isn't fucking up Iowa on Monday.

No warning today. Still hazy. I don't have lung issues though so it doesn't move me health wise. My nephew with asthma and has been fine so far. For me it's the the gloomy smokiness of it. I remember smog in the 90's going to Chicago, this is just as bad. Kind of depressing when it seems like there's a constant fire 1k miles away.

Not something we really deal with in this region. Canada has been shit the last 5 years in whatever they're doing. I think they just let it burn. So maybe it will get better in following years at some point.

I'm recovering from a mild case of pneumonia. Even if it were clear I'm going to be coughing on people but I'm definitely on the mend. I may change plans and head South earlier than expected, we'll see.
264   Maga_Chaos_Monkey   2025 Aug 2, 11:52am  

Also Fuck Canada!

Yeah I'm too lazy to check the fire maps and smoke. Never had to think about it until the last 5 years when my phone pings me for air quality alerts.

Knock on wood, never had it, but how the hell does one get pneumonia? I'm a former smoker and never have ever had lung issues.

I don't think the air shouldn't be too bad by Monday though as the humidity is lower. It was thick the last two days for here at least. Went from 90% to 50% humidity which helps.

Graduation at a Canadian University.

And the blonde is probably dyed/Asian. Oh, Canada.

The epicanthic folds give her away.

South Korean, apparently. But not Canadian white.

They are fucking extinct and don't even know it.

After I noticed the bass player in my band was coughing due to the smoke haze, I told him, "Half of Canada is on fire. I don't think this is a coincidence."

All he said was "STOP!"

All we can do, besides prepare ourselves and those we love, is try to wake up the NPC's.

Sorry for people with lung issues. Fortunately it doesn't bother me even though it's been bad here in IL.

I don't see how this isn't intentional. Two of the territories are actively going to have referendums on the ballot for secession from Canada. Alberta and Saskatchewan. Red is out of control fires. Manitoba has a lot too. That's a cluster fuck of fires.

Life sentence for arson should fix it. Who knew climate activists would be the bitter enemy of nature?
275   stereotomy   2025 Aug 3, 10:09pm  

Like I said, if you can't coerce them, you cull them or burn down their livelihoods. It is deliberate and probably financed by the Canadian government under their globohomo agenda.
276   Patrick   2025 Aug 3, 10:30pm  

I suspect that the fires of 2020 were deliberately set by the CIA to increase the general fear and discomfort level, the idea being that this would dissuade people from electing Trump for a second time.

https://patrick.net/post/1335041/2020-09-11-curious-distribution-of-oregon-and-n

It didn't work. Trump was re-elected in 2020, but the election was rigged by mail-in ballot fraud, and Biden was installed.

Maybe that’s what happens when government policy prioritizes euthanasia under the guise of healthcare.

No. It's the opposite. They euthanize because the lack of economic growth strain their health care budgets.
