Are you talking about California?

Massive understatement.

80% of Canada's population adheres to the US border. Most of its trade is with the US.

The bigger problems:
1) Canada getting cozy with the Chinese to antagonize the US--and China is in a downward spiral.
2) Canada mistreats it's own citizens (and has no equivalent of 1st or 2nd amendment rights).
3) Alberta (and possibly Saskatchewan) looking to secede, and take away a huge chuck of Canadian GDP.

As another poster wrote, Canada should be seeking to be ignored by the US, not provoking it.

Rust can't fix systemd. It can only fix a (small) subset of systemd.

Here you go again: talking about non-computer things, and showing yourself ignorant.
Renting is separate from rent-seeking.
Renting is where you are owed rent. Rent-*seeking* is where you are *not* owed rent, but want a piece anyways.

China's been lying about its population. It likely has less than 1 Billion.
It's electric use, therefore, would be closer to 10,400kWh per person.

And America doesn't even have an accurate count of it's population.
So 13,000kWh per person is a wild guess.

If by "normalcy and justice", you mean constitution trampling, leftist manure--I hope it never returns.

America hasn't had real justice from the Supreme Court in *decades*. Per the Supreme Court, if you receive due process, you have received the *equivalent* of justice.

And which fine Democracy do *you* hail from sir?

American politics meets American media. Team Blue wins then Team Red wins, and both claim victory.
