Canadians seem to be too hesitant to stand up to their government like we do in the U.S. Apparently, the new P.M was voted in with a little over 150k voters!? Like wtf? Aren't there millions and millions in Canada? But you make good points that Alberta could manage everything it needed itself and I'm sure what they needed outside they'd find great trade partners.

The new PM of the Liberal party was a farce. People didn't vote because it wasn't a standardized voting process. It was online, ID wasn't required etc. Because of the situation of their party it was little more than how Kamala got in. It was so easily manipulated that if anyone wanted to sway the vote they could. The only slightly more conservative candidate was cancelled. Bitcoin really changes things but people don't realize it. People still think that we need the banks and for the Government to handle the money. Post nationalism in general is nearly here but the big lacking elephant in the room is people's ignorance. Our next likely PM understands Bitcoin but lately he has been super soft and IMO, playing a game to get the 80IQ voters. It hasn't been working well for him though because he is less genuine. I have a small amount of hope but our senate is a broken system and mostly unelected, for life, and mostly controlled by the Liberals, so they can in theory stop anything from passing as they see fit. Senate MUST be reformed in Canada.

Pierre Polievre has an interview with breedlove, Jordan Peterson, where he's not specifically Bitcoin, but still based, and even summarized the Bitcoin Standard unofficially in the House of Commons to all the people there; I can link that one if you want to see it. It's obvious if you know the book. That said, he seems to be too controlled by the system of control and I am losing hope that we will make much headway at all. He knows truth, but can only do what he can do, and only if he wins.

Link me up anytime it helps me with context and knowledge. Ultimately, it sounds like Canada could use mass election reform. Trump won because we ALL felt the pain of the Biden administration and required change and we respect Trump's ability to stand up to the deep state which was really gaining ground. I got off track though. You mentioned the 80iq's , that sounds offensive, what does that mean more specifically? Like what you would call us maga down here?

Like most things it's a mix. A bell curve. I'm not aware enough about USA to comment on the general IQ of the average voter from either stance. When I mention the 80IQ's it's more to say that there are some people on either side who will never change their views. It does not make sense to focus time there for votes. Pierre already will win the majority of the vote of people of reasonable intellect who are less loyal to a specific party. What remains is people who will not listen to long format interviews and want to feel something. There's a lot of slogans like "Let's bring it home" "food for families not Pay cheques for Politicians" and other alliterations which don't really have anything concrete behind them but sound good and get people excited. There's also the name calling line "Carbon tax Carney" and whatnot. It all drives me nuts, but that is the voters he's now looking to capture. He was much more articulate early in his campaign and I wish he would keep some of that.

Let me also be clear, although I happen to be high IQ I don't put much weight in that specific metric. There are many other attributes that make a person better and even successful than raw processing power. Frankly I find it more humbling than anything because based on that one metric, I likely should be doing a LOT better for myself than what I am. I do however think it's the primary metric being focused on at the moment when it comes to who and how they are focusing their campaign.

Carney is going to issue stimulus checks I bet to get popularity. Sorry I'd text more but I'm at work and gotta sneak my nostr time in wisely haha. Thank you for clarifying that IQ thing, and that makes sense I see what you're saying. Basically people who don't want to do their due diligence and base their beliefs off of sheer emotion.
