19:55 I’ve seen you say that BC is socialist many times, and that doesn’t make any sense. If you put BC on an Electoral College-style map, BC would be a swing state. It’s voted in its centre-right party (ironically called the ‘Liberals’- it’s kind of weird) almost every election. Saying BC is socialist is like saying Virginia or Georgia is Socialist because they occasionally elect left-wing candidates. I also don’t get why the territories would stay part of Ontario. There’s not a single port that connects the two, and at the point Canada falls apart, it basically just becomes who can offer various elites in the Northern Territories more concessions. It’s kind of like Russia falling apart and losing all of Siberia to China except Chukchi for some reason. It makes no logical sense.

10:40 That depends. The Red River Rebellion could technically be classified as a native revolt, because the Métis were treated as Natives despite not really being natives…

@AbeYousef I think people kind of use the stereotypes to place BC in the liberal camp, especially if they’re Americans, who pretty much know BC as Downtown Vancouver and the touristy Gulf Islands and Vancouver Island (ie. the most liberal parts of BC), and extrapolate from Seattle. It’s especially obvious once he put Kelowna in the “Weed and Hippies Camp” (lol). A lot of the reason Washington is liberal are transplants from other states over the past 50 years (same as Colorado), which are disproportionally more Liberal than transplants to other states. No sane Californian or other resident from a liberal area ever heads to Vancouver for cheaper housing like they do in the rest of the Pacific Northwest (even if the border didn’t exist). So the leftwards-pushing effects of political migration into BC are not major. Also, the minor cities that usually are conservative strongholds despite the major cities are larger in BC.
