I think Canada is more divided amongst its population than the U.S… which is crazy to think if you have ever travelled throughout the U.S.
@mortimer_1 Do you mean the “divide” between the investor class vs regular working ppl who rent? Yes. No matter how much rich ppl have, they resent any flipping tax, speculation tax, any effort at all to even *slightly* level the playing field.
@mortimer_1 You know why? We feel like our lives depend on it 🤷🏻♀️ it feels like no one addressed the cost of living until last year and now it’s like ohhhh fuck we gotta vote our way out of this ???
@mortimer_1 Mailey thinks the parliamentary system is to blame. At least Americans have the House of Representatives to offset the elite Senate. We have no say in anything, every citizens name should just be changed to Ben Dover.
@mortimer_1 They all have guns! That’s the first thing I think of whenever I think of the 🇺🇸
@mortimer_1 As we shift away from a resource based economy, where a bit of education becomes critical to surviving our expensive cost of living here…that should probably change over time.
@mortimer_1 This is obviously and completely false.
@mortimer_1 IMO there is more discontent than division. There are also a lot of small yet loud groups that push opinion to the extremes.
@mortimer_1 I think we have more: -Factionalism -Sectarianism -Ethnocentrism in mega urban regions. The populations are huge and generally aggregated too. I think Canada will break up in my lifetime. There's nothing acting as glue right now.
