To be accurate, you gotta get that reverb in.

Not much these days, basically just another holiday.

The nation that preys on its own children doesn't deserve to exist. Piss on this turd of a nation.

Those types of shops and crowds are still around. They don’t have a big brand though. There’s also private hockey rinks with diners you can watch the kids play from.

 

[ovarieasy]

Man, that old pic reminds me of the donut shop I went to as a kid. hob nob DONUT shop. Doesn't exist anymore.
Had that brown and orange colour scheme that used to be everywhere. People smoking inside. Reading newspapers. Nothing but Canadians as far as the eye could see.

 

[saymyname]

i can smell that place...i really miss those shitty stools.

Damn, she really was a beautiful girl. Apparently she was passed around Hollywood to a level even beyond the usual depravity, hence her shapeshift. Her eyes in that photo show abject fear.

 

[Trudeaus coke dealer]

That's Hollywood for ya. Abuse people to the point of trooning out then act like it's the horrified public that is really the issue.

 

[416_Refugee]

RIP Ellen.

It's just easier that way.

 

[ChevChelios]

I remember years ago hearing the host of the CBC radio news gleefully announcing that "Elliot Page has come out as transgender!" and I thought, well who the fuck is that? The name "Ellen" wasn't mentioned even once, even though she had built her entire career under it

 

[bobthefighter]

@ChevChelios I remember that as well. I had no clue what the article was on about.

Also, if Elliot came out as a tranny, would that make him Ellen again...

The elbows up boomers and their new found plastic patriotism is maddening. It’s depressing to think of this country and where it’s at.

 

[Shockadee]

So I've been thinking about this. I think we have to be careful about blaming boomers. I get that they voted for governments that got us into this situation, but it wasn't their generation that actually did anything, they just benefited, and while it was happening things probably looked pretty rosy and not like things today, so no impetus to fight about it.

I look around today, and wonder what I can do to. Make the future better for my kids. Sure I can petition, write letters to MPs or protest but we all know this affects change in a very minimal way. What do we do to effect real change?

Certainly if the west separated I'd be heading out that way. Trying to find a better life.

What could the boomers or our current generation do to fight back so that we don't get looked back on the way we are looking at the Boomers now? I guarantee the ways things are going that my kids will look back at our current life as better than their situation whenit comes to be their time.


So what do?

 

[BeerAndOil]

I should clarify, by elbows up boomers, I’m referring to anyone that suddenly found their patriotism in the wake of the trade war. Over the past 10 years, there was significant overlap with this crowd, and the same people that considered Canada to be a genocidal settler state. More then anything, I am pissed off with the masses of ideologically adrift, who go from cause to cause as the media directs them. The rah rah Canada will be dropped as soon as the next thing comes along and the intellectual zombies shuffle to the next opinion.

So to answer your question - what do? I don’t have a fucking clue.

 

[Trudeaus coke dealer]

Hook your kids up as best you can. When they turn 16 teach them to drive instead of telling them to stay the fuck away from your car. For that matter any skills you have should be passed on to them ASAP

Use nepotism to your advantage instead of telling them to figure it out on their own. Treat your kids like they are a part of your clan instead of the competition. People bitch about boomers for financial reasons but their major sin was having kids and effectively booting them out into the world without so much as a fuck you very much.

 

[Shockadee]

@BeerAndOil yeah that's a fair answer, and to your credit. You did say the elbows up boomers my bad for not reading more carefully.

The goal is divide. And conquer. The plebs fight each other so we don't fight the ones at the top. Man vs woman, black vs white vs brown, old vs young etc.

i had a kid from Jordan as a tenant at one time, he was maybe 18 or 19 at the time and we talked about a lot of things. He came to the realization on his own that in his country whenever the population was coming together against the ruling class, a special football match was put on by rival teams that roughly divided the country in half so they would again focus on each. Other rather than the important issues within their Country. It was quite the epiphany for him. I wish more people would figure out the game here...

 

[Shockadee]

@Trudeaus coke dealer that's good advice. If we can't change things, at least prepare the next generation as best we are able.

 

[CaptainTrouble]

What could the boomers or our current generation do to fight back so that we don't get looked back on the way we are looking at the Boomers now?

Acknowledgement and support. That's what we can offer that boomers lack. Boomers fails to acknowledge the problems and fail to support their family/friends who're most affected by the problems. Instead, boomers believe their success is entirely through their own actions and believe any complaint a non-boomer might have is because of a deficiency in the individual instead of systemic dynamics.

As long as we acknowledge the problems and support people who face these challenges without gloating in the advantages we had and blaming those who faced worse situations on the younger generations, we should be fine.

 

[bobthefighter]

The elbows up boomers are the same crowd who called for Patriots to be locked up, kids separated from parents, pushing the jab 2020-2022. Where was their patriotism then?

Oh ya, the idiot box legacy media didn't push that narrative, so they were not patriotic.

Fuck the boomers.

I celebrate Dominion Day.

 

[Rusty Canuckleford]

Canada used to be full of Canadians? Holy shit!

 

[d01tg0d0wn]

It is ok to be white!

 

[ChevChelios]

It's better than OK, it's fucking awesome

 

[d01tg0d0wn]

@ChevChelios

Miss Scotland agrees and i agree with her

Don't fuck with the Scots!

[Youngracer88]

Ten years ago, it was still special. Nowadays, I don't give a fuck.

 

[Sgt. Goosenip]

Canada Day is now mostly a matter of indifference. However, when I see normies celebrating it, I get get angry because they are so clueless regarding what it is and are partly the cause of what we lost.

[ovarieasy]

Why are the singing it in Indonesia?

 

[Jack Layton]

A wise tuggy parlor once sang

O Canada
A hong men nei ti lan
Chu pei chu luo, lin ao a sa ke man
Wei geluo ing ha, zi xi di lai
Da chu now schlong en fli
Fan fa en wai, O Canada
Wei sitan ong ga fo di.
Gao ji bao lan, ge luo aen fli
O Canada, wei sitan ong ga fo di
O Canada, wei sitan ong ga fo di

 

[bobthefighter]

Honestly, it means fuck all to me.

I will break out the Red Ensign, wave it proudly about town on my day off.

Canada is done as a country, we need Wexit yesterday.

Best I can do is try to set my children up for success when they are adults and I am not here, which feels near hopeless currently.

 

[bobthefighter]

I guess bonus points, working for an American company means I get Tuesday and Friday off. So that is something to look forward to.

 

[border_humper]

Locally here in my hood there will be a privately funded, run-by-good-ole -boys fireworks display that I can watch from my deck. This is quintessentially what was and what remains good about Canada.
