Odds are the USA will be on the wrong side of any major conflict and Canada would also be looking to Europe for support.
Our federal government is making it much harder to immigrate here and many people are being forced to leave the country since they can’t become a permanent resident anymore.
I agree with your sentiment, but our government and the average Canadian is far more anti-immigrant than 10 years ago.

18·1 month agoThat happened in Canada’s federal election. Our Conservative party was acting like Trumpists, so people flocked to the Liberal party, our left-ish parties collapsed, and the Liberals took a big step right.

Ontario@lemmy.ca•Ford government formally appeals ruling deeming Toronto bike lane removal unconstitutionalEnglish
3·5 months agoIt is impossible to get around most of Toronto without bike lanes on arterials. The whole “no bike lanes on arterials” is a myth that Ford has been repeating constantly. Bike lanes do not cause traffic.
PhDs have literally run machine learning analysis on Toronto’s streets and found Bloor bike lanes to be necessary in every scenario. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/10/241015183513.htm

2·8 months agoYou don’t want to be on the opposite side of pissed off Montréalers. They riot like the French and would fiercely fight any attempts by the feds to force a pipeline on Québec. The entire Bloc Québécois would have their back too. Bad idea.
Liberals wouldn’t get a seat in Quebec for years…

Canada@lemmy.ca•Carney to brief premiers on plan to fast-track major nation-building projectsEnglish
132·8 months agoFor all his talk about increasing economic productivity in terms of producing more goods, all I see is more resource extraction.
Carbon capture is a darling of the oil industry that allows them to keep doing business as usual. It requires an insane amount of often unclean electricity and is vapourware that does not work at scale. Oil companies love carbon capture, just like they love “natural gas” that lets them sell biproducts of fracking.
Nuclear is great but our climate does not have the 10 years it takes to build a reactor.
Where we’re headed, we’ll end up with more oil output, more emissions, more car-dependency, and a bunch of partially completed projects in 10 years.
This needs more focus on low carbon public transit and fast and achievable solar and wind.
It is abundantly clear that even if every automobile was replaced with an EV, we’d still bake our planet. Mining the ring of fire is a profit-seeking, extractive venture and not a climate solution.
There are lots of sales on solar generators right now. Some Canadian options for panels include Lumera (made in Canada) and Canadian Solar.

Buy Canadian@lemmy.ca•I am a younger Canadian and want to put more thought into investing, and investing in Canada. What would you recommend?English
81·10 months agoOP, do not follow this advice. Housing is for shelter. As an investment, you’re putting all of your eggs in one basket, in one country, in one narrow local area, in a risky market. Even REITs historically underperform the humble broad-market index ETF.
Do not drink the boomer kool-aid that it’s a magic get rich quick scheme and they’re super smart when in reality, they got lucky.
