You joke, but I keep expecting that eventually we will see an influx of people moving to the west of the great lakes both in US and CAD. Temperature especially close to the lake is pretty good, low chance of weather damages, and no worries about lack of fresh water. You don't want east of the great lakes btw because you get buried in snow. I may however be very bias!

I, as a European, might be east of the lakes and I prefer to stay there. wink

From Putin's speech at annexation ceremony today.


Quote:"Sanctions were not enough for the Anglo-Saxons: they moved on to sabotage. It is hard to believe but it is a fact that they organised the blasts on the Nord Stream international gas pipelines, which run along the bottom of the Baltic Sea. In fact, they began to destroy the pan-European energy infrastructure. It is clear to everyone who benefits from this. Of course, he who benefits did it."


I mean what a bullshit argument. Denmark gained land from Germany after the first world war even though they didn't participate in the war. Clearly Denmark must have started the war, because they benefited from it. crazyeye

Russia doing Russia things.
"Superdeath seems to have acquired a rep for aggression somehow.

Sigh. The world is so disappointing these days…

That is disappointing.

Soft power is sadly very much a thing.

Thanks for pointing this out. I just did a quick zoom around other major news sites and it appears to not be getting coverage......

Strangely, still not widely covered by the major media outlets, the only exception I found was Fox where the message was "Trump pulled us out, Biden put us back in, Trump was right, Biden has to pull us back out or he's soft on China."

That doesn't make any sense....... If you want to be tough on China being on the human rights council and trying to do things like holding a formal debate on China human rights abuses seems like the thing to do. The United Nations is an incredible flawed organization, but might as well work a little with what you have. Even though Indonesia voted against, just reminding them continuously is probably worth some anti China diplo points there.

The nightmare is finally going to be over. Four years of being governed by a person that hates our country. Four years of hate, it was very tough. Four years of discrimination, finally over. I’m very emotional right now and I really hope things will get better. 

Bolsonaro is finally out.

Looks like it was incredibly close. Congratulations! Toot

Are the fears he may not leave peacefully realistic?
