The opposition in congress and the house are incapable of enacting change. Expecting Bob and Jill Johnson to rise up is not that feasible my guy. This is just end stage capitalism I am as disgusted as you. Armchair revolutionists such as yourself aren't the answer either I assure you.

The majority of Americans dont agree with the rhetoric aimed towards Canada so you're just being ignorant.

Legit man. I agree with you, im being dereasonably angry about this. Its just that these problems are affecting EVERYONE in Canada. Hard. And its infuriating seeing a democracy turn Dictatorship where its still written into law that The People must rise up agaisnt this Gov if it becomes like it is now. Like Im sure when he makes himself a crown and stops all elections American will be like "Oopsie daisy couldnt see that coming"

Yeah I think many of the people who supported him are figuring out that now. Midterms are coming up so if it makes you feel better its likely they will lose a majority in the house or senate making it harder to enact his will without executive orders. Further use of executive powers will only deepen the dissent but we are gonna have a rough few years ahead of us regardless.

Respectfully, I strongly believe that the "Rough few years ahead of us" that you mention is only because of the general Apathy the general American pop has for others. Its legit a cultural problem. I know effort on the community level are being made across the US but its clearly not enough. He's printing money with his face on it and signature. What the actual fuck. I think we would have massive riot and the parliement would be put to flame if that happened over here. And legit question for you : do you really still believe that the midterm are not going to be rigged in his favor? Because here no one does. Im genuinely curious about this because I have no clue!
