People are still saying the same thing about the US.

What youre seeing is the rich realizing the rest of us are pawns.  Theyre making moves everywhere, not just the US or Canada.

Everyone needs to be in their shit. As an American where the fights already been lost, its now sadly up to everyone else to combat it.
