They really treat Canada like a wayward US state. Good on the Canadian government to tell the US to fuck off.

      I keep reading comments like this and getting more convinced La Riposte is going to work.

      Just launched the website today, it’s not going to sell anything, ask for anything. Just encourage people to learn French across Canada as a national effort standing up to MAGA. And amplify via the media/word of mouth. Graffiti. Everything.

      Nothing but upsides, costs pretty much nothing to be involved, I think the national temperature is hot enough right now.

      I keep getting comments removed with the link and the site is pretty bare but la dash riposte dot ca will be the site. But it’s going to be a crowdsourced thing I’m hoping.

        Growing up in western Canada, I found myself annoyed in the past by Quebec’s separation rattling, and didn’t do very well at French class in our immersion curriculum in elementary and Jr. high … but at this point I’d be open to trying to re-learn some French just to spite the US administration.

        Hell, we should all try to learn some Greenlandic in solidarity with them!
