Buy Canadian isn’t always an option. But buying non-American almost always is. And since a huge part of the protest at this time is about putting the US in the penalty box, it’s an acceptable tradeoff.

I read the headline and went “what, are they going to start drinking their own piss?”

And the answer was yes. Yes they are drinking their own piss.

I remember in the 80s several National Lampoon covers that featured this concept. One had a tagline with something like “Welcome to America, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Honda Motor Company” or something like that. And then there is the slightly racist one in this image:

Damn, I’ve heard jokes about quebecios being snobby with their French but that seems excessive

It’s not snobby. From an anglo perspective, here’s how it plays out in reality:

WAITER: Qu’est-ce que vous voudrais? ME: Huh? WAITER: What would you like? ME: {proceeds to order}

…And life goes on.

Trans activists are going about this all wrong. Instead of sending someone like Marcy in to violate the law, they need to do this:

Send in the biggest, burliest, hairiest ftm trans dudes into busy ladies rooms, the room that the state insists he must now legally use. And record the reaction of the women and girls leaving for broadcast media. Because by focussing on mtf trans in ladies rooms, I really feel the dipshits that make these laws haven’t thought their cunning plans through very fully.

If he remained a major shareholder, I’d never buy one. And I’m in the market.
