Fuck no, I'll move to Europe and renounce my citizenship if it happens.
I'd rather have Quebec be its own country than have anything to do with the US.
Sasnak doesn't really like having their cat compared to Hitler constantly.
I get it, it is funny when you and I see it occasionally, I sure find it humorous! But they're hearing it over and over again, and I'm sure they're sick of it by now.
I prefer comparing their cat to Charlie Chaplin, who essentially shared the same facial hair as Hitler.
It was actually quite a popular cut at the time in Europe, it's called a "toothbrush" mustache, and it's unfortunate it got associated with a fascist figure rather than a comedian.
BO DU BU DUP DUP!
False, Quebec has the SQ.
The RCMP barely operates in Quebec.
Phrasing, mother!
That took entirely too long.
Bloc is more pro-provincial rights than pro-quebec.
I'd trust them more than the CPC even if I didn't live in Quebec.

I'm having a hard time believing anything they say when the incoming administration they seemingly support is constantly making threats of invading our country.
Andy here, since it's my original post that's being reposted here, let me comment further.
My post is talking about Gail Slater, who is by all measures, actually a good pick, with a solid track record of being on the right side of the antitrust issue. Yes, she happens to be nominated by Trump, but her record speaks for itself.
This is not going to be a popular opinion, but on the specific issue of antitrust, Democrats fell short. In 2022, we campaigned extensively in the US for anti-trust legislation. Two bills were ready, with bipartisan support. Chuck Schumer (who coincidently has two daughters working as big tech lobbyists) refused to bring the bills for a vote. In the aftermath of this failure, great people like former Democratic rep David Cicilline left congress, leaving few strong voices for antitrust left in the Democratic party. In the meantime, at a 2024 event covering antitrust remedies, out of all the invited senators, just a single one showed up - JD Vance.
By working on the front lines of many policy issues, we have seen the shift between Dems and Republicans over the past decade first hand. And that's a missed opportunity for Dems, because by and large, support for cracking down on corporate monopolies is popular on both sides of the political spectrum. Unfortunately, corporate capture of Dems is real and in the end money won. It is hard to see how this changes, and Republicans are likely to lead the antitrust charge in the coming years.
From that perspective, and going back to my original post, Gail is a great pick. One should not equate our support of Gail for Proton not being neutral anymore. We continue to call out bad behavior from both sides, whether it's Dems or Republicans, on our core issues. Just a few weeks ago, we were called out for being in bed with Soros because we gave money to too many "liberal" organizations: https://proton.me/blog/2024-lifetime-fundraiser-results No, the Proton Foundation isn't the new Soros either (even if we may coincidentally fund some of the same things sometimes). We simply stick with our strongly held core believes, and leave politics out of it, because the issues we care about, should be apolitical.
This does not answer the question.
