Every now and then Crenshaw might say something that you like. But do not be fooled - he is as radical and right-wing as any Republican out there. Always has been, too.

IIRC you cannot even *enter* Canada if you have been convicted of a felony in the U.S. Someone from Canadia, please check my work on the following: that you cannot enter even if *accused* of a felony.

First of all, that guy has COVID-19. Second, even when Canadians are promising a civil war, they still sound nicer than anyone else.

ILLYRC, According to https://www.temporaryreside...

Any American that has a felony conviction on their criminal record may not be permitted entry into Canada unless they have received special permission from the Canadian Government. Even if the conviction happened 20+ years ago, foreign nationals with a felony may never be deemed rehabilitated by the passage of time and risk being denied entry at the Canadian border even decades later. The Canadian border has full access to all the criminal record databases in the United States, so anyone who has been convicted of a felony will very likely be flagged at the border.

Some wingnuts on Twitter are complaining about the big Canadian banks and how they did something bad to the truckers. I didn't spend enough time with it to figure out what the hell they were even talking about and assumed they had their facts wrong anyway.

A human being can guess where to drive when things like road markings aren't visible. Which is common in winter.

Our banking system is highly federally regulated with only a few players. What's happening is the grift money sent to the beg platforms is being frozen when the dosh is transferred to Canadian banks. We can't shut down the non-Canuck grift sites but we can have our banks stop the funds from getting to the grifters. Partly the bank's decision but also the Federal Emergency Act that Trudeau has enabled allows for greater leeway for the banks to shut down this kind of activity.

I would love for these assholes to take Crenshaw up on his offer and leave me and my beautiful, beloved Canada alone.

I don't see any Canadian giving up free health care to come to our dysfunctional country where health care may bankrupt them.

Folks with DUIs and DWIs have to go through a lot just to get special permission to get across the border. And that's after a 10 ten year ban, I believe.
