Should go without saying that Canada is more troubling for us than a faraway Slavic conflict because the mechanisms of tyranny used in Canada are the same as ours. Not only is the government/corporate alliance the same, the rhetoric and rationale is the same.

“But the Canadian government is accountable to the voters!”

Shut up, you pussy. The public/private ideological cartel bent on punishing the enemies of the regime—ordinary Americans or Canadians—doesn’t get voted out. Your vote means shit now.

When you go to the polls and, by some fluke, elect an opponent of the ideological cartel, the government and corporate world expunge and destroy him. Even, as we’ve seen, the people charged with our national security. The whole edifice of modern liberal democracy is a sham.
