It is interesting how T operates he throws shit at the wall he scans for performative opportunities to flood the zone. The 51st rhetoric got him play. Then he justifies his tariffs with lies and half truths. US has benefitted economically and in terms of influence from being the big cheese. The order issue just another justification after the fact. . .facts do not support. T is the poor victim. Maga are victims???? Just opportinistic and grifter politics. Sickening.
Detailed analysis and criticism of Trump's political tactics, tariff justifications, and perceived dishonesty.

As a Canadian living close to the capital, we do not want this. The liberal government are letting anyone and everyone in without any background checks and they aren’t following up on the visitor/school visa’s that expire to see if anyone is actually leaving. They don’t even try to adapt or conform to laws, society nor culture. Immigration without assimilation is an invasion. We are tired of this, send them back.
Criticizes government immigration policy and enforcement while asserting Canadian identity and expressing demographic anxiety about cultural assimilation.

In Canada, we imported almost 10% of our population is the last five years, the majority of whom came from India. There's no doubt that Indian culture is not the same as Canadian culture, and importing such a massive number so quickly means we are far more likely to see those cultures bumping up against each other, rather than giving them a chance to assimilate and blend. Like any good cook, I know if you try to add the eggs too quickly and in too much of a hurry, you get scrambled eggs in weak sauce, not a thick creamy custard. Same principle applies to immigration. We need to give people the time and chance to learn and absorb our culture and values, else we end up with ghettos and a weakened society.
Structured critique of immigration pace and assimilation policy using cultural metaphor, arguing for slower integration to prevent social fragmentation.
