Seems weird you highlighting that Trudeau’s party got less than half of the votes, but their system let allowed him to remain Prime Minister (the system everyone knew was in place as the election took place), yet you didn’t see much of a problem when Trump got less than half the votes and the system let him become president. Hard to explain, really.

The vaccine mandate got stopped, but did it really?

That "what other nations do" lens is just like "science", the left chooses when to employ that angle...only when it works in their favor.

6 parties? Wow. As much as we gripe about wanting/needing a 3rd party...we see the chaos having that 3rd causes in an election.

So many of my liberal friends have forgotten about the inauguration day violence.

Forgotten or they never knew as the news they pay attention to likely didn't mention, or downplayed it.

Situational ethics thrive in a world where truth is relative.

Yes, nice to be an American, but this is a cautionary tale. The dems would do this tomorrow if they thought they could get away with it, and the MSM would cheer them for doing it.

I agree that is the best place in the world, but there is one thing that I think would make this government better, term limits.

Unfortunately we also have a 14th Amendment that SOME thinks allows the national (hardly federal anymore) to ignore the 10th, 1st, 2nd and other Amendments.

Nice comparative civic lesson!

No, not everyone. Appalling 3rd world crime and murder stats. US doesn’t even have independent map drawers like most civilised nations. Gerrymandering election stealing is a disgrace. Appalling political system, appalling justice system. Healthcare system that is incentivised to keep people sick for profit. Nearly all covid relief went to the top 20%. So corrupt. Last time I looked US was outside top 20 on the freedom index. Worst personal time freedom in the developed world.
