But the Heritage Foundation says they along with other English-speaking countries still answering to the Crown don’t have a whole lot of regulation and taxes (except health care).
Is the strip catching up to reality yet? New Zealand would a great place for you and those spoiled celebrities to go. Wouldn’t have to hear from either one again.
Canada is also far more fascist than the USA. Especially in “French” Canada (province of Quebec). The language laws there are repressive and, despite the Canadian Supreme Court shooting the language laws down upon appeal of conviction, they still enforce them and bully people, as provinces can ignore both parliament and the courts when it suits them. You can be arrested and fined for not having your signage in both French and English, with French words being twice the size of the English words in the province of Quebec.
Imagine Alabama telling the US Congress and the US Supreme Court to go to the devil and enforcing, say, school segregation despite laws, constitutional amendments and court rulings. It’s called the “notwithstanding” clause.
Canada also, in 1970, invoked the War Powers Act (martial law) due to separatist violence and murders in Quebec. The streets of Quebec were flooded with tanks and troops and hundreds of people were subject to summary arrest, detention and questioning without benefit of counsel even though the vast majority had nothing whatsoever to do with the FLQ (Front de Liberatzon du Quebec) separatists. Meanwhile, the FLQ terrorists who had kidnapped both a British diplomat and a Canadian government Minister (they later murdered the Minister by strangling him to death with his own religious chain), were allowed, without interference, to fly to Cuba and escape.
Canada isn’t all pink bunnies, lollypops, back bacon and Molson beer, people.

Why aren’t the people who supported Hillary’s open border policy moving to Mexico, Central America, or South America?
