Just post a bunch of geese as your border guards (and maybe international trade negotiators too?) and you’ll be fine. I feel they’re an underutilized Canadian resource!
They don’t know what Reddit is in the least. Using email can occasionally be a challenge. They’re hippy artist types. Mostly they only know Facebook so they can sell their art. It’s a different life.
Go read the news yourself then. It’s all out there. People have lost access to health benefits, water hygiene standards are being relaxed, critical cybersecurity initiatives are being cut, national parks will be less accessible to all (some of Colorado’s have already announced they’ll be closed two days a week), the impacts are both immediate and longer term, and far reaching. If you want to hear about immediate direct impact, a critical domestic violence center in Colorado that has been providing cross-departmental case management and victim advocacy since 2016 will likely have to shut down because its federal funding was cut by DOGE and victims are currently being turned away. The immediate, very real, impacts are EASY to discover with a minimal amount of research effort. The larger ones are just starting to make themselves known.
Unfortunately it likely won’t be the billionaires suffering, so I’m not sure how much meaningful rethinking will be going on unless pressure on them is relentless.
Phat ass.
