I had this exact conversation with a friend last night, she was realizing that all sorts of thing we just take for granted now could just vanish a lot quicker than we think, if we think they could vanish at all.

My brother tells me itтАЩs historically 10 years. Ten years for American politics to subsume Canadian politics. We have our own christian right (or other religious fundamentalists), anti-science and anti-government people already expanding beyond the fringe.

When I moved up here in 2009 I was shocked at how apathetic my Canadian coworkers were. "What's happening down there can't happen here" they said to me, and I said that they should stay vigilant because it will happen when they arent paying attention. Humans are humans, and the US and Canada are culturally extremely similar. They scoffed. I can only hope that they remember this and are less apathetic now.
