I’m Canadian and we have our own issues with far right nutjobs but I’ve heard the phrase “Project 2025” thrown around and the little I’ve seen about it frightens me. I don’t follow the news for the sake my mental health but could someone explain it in depth? What kind of a shit show are we looking at? Unfortunately Canadian politics would probably follow because of the huge cultural influence the US has.

    Don’t be scared? I mean, even if there’s a full on civil war, which isn’t likely, why would it spill into Canada unless your nation picks a side?

    What’s more likely is that democrats would do what they always do and back down, cementing our slide into facism while preventing a civil war.

    What you should really be worried about is having a violent monarchy forming on your southern border, because you’ve got some socialist tendencies, and conservatives hate that.

      why would it spill into Canada

      the only time US has payed attention to borders is when it involves non-white immigrants …

      I strongly doubt a civil war would spill over but if there is massive unrest it’s likely that arms smuggling through ports of entry would sky rocket and we’d see violence from both sides in the area trying to protect and disrupt shipments.

      As their neighbor we’d also probably get appeals from both sides for open support and a lot of our border faces really conservative areas in America.

        Plus, Alberta exists and I have lived here long enough to know that the idiots here would be itching to use a US civil war as the reason to start one in Canada
