Quick – picture Canada.

What comes to mind? A progressive wonderland of polite manners and majestic moose? What America might be if it evolved a little? That place you’ll move to if Trump wins?

If that’s what you think, that’s fine by us. In fact, it’s our brand: not America. The nice guys. Dull, kind and harmless. That’s how we like to be thought of.

But it’s mooseshit.

Leftists are not going to like this part.

These days, Canada is the second-largest arms exporter to the Middle East. Our Alberta oil sands produce more carbon emissions each year than the entire state of California. Our intelligence agency is allowed to act on information obtained through torture. And a lot of French Canadians are into blackface comedy.

Canada may have socialized medicine. However, they produce a lot of oil and export arms to the Middle East.

Another interesting thing to note about Canada is that, if you are charged with a crime, evidence against you which was illegally obtained is still admissible in court.
Let's show an example, one which I'm sure will resonate with the DUmmies:
Suppose you get arrested on charges of growing and selling marijuana. Now, suppose that the cops search your house without a valid warrant and find a pot plant there.
In America, if it's proven that the cops didn't have a valid warrant, that pot plant would be considered illegally- obtained evidence, and would be inadmissible in your trial.
In Canada, however, the pot plant would still be fully admissible as evidence against you in your trial, regardless of if the cops obtained it legally or not.
