Also idk how Canada has such a high economic freedom score but it is a couple years old now so it is likely much lower at this point.
    Canada is ranked 11 and the US is ranked 17. You're right, it's pointless to argue this. I can own a firearm if I want to. There's no issue there. We just don't make the owning of firearms a religion like they do in the US.

      I looked up the freedom index. "The Freedom Index takes roughly two years to compile. For example, the 2023 Freedom Index analyzed the state of world freedom in 2021, the 2024 index will analyze data for 2022, and so on." That means that the most recently released index, the 2024 one is for 2022, Smack dab in the middle of the Biden Presidency.

        So, what you're saying is, it's gonna get worse once trumpy starts implementing the entire Project 2025 guidelines.

            I'm free to wake up each morning knowing I didn't vote for the trash bag you have in your White House.

              Hey, man, you were waxing poetic about Canada's freedom compared to the USA. I asked a simple question of you. What the hell?

                I was just relaying the information from the world freedom index. Maybe you should ask the creators of that.

                  It's cool that you can't name any. Just say that.

                      Well it's not that simple. The owning of firearms is very limited in Canada. I even heard they outlawed a bb gun haha

                          I'm happy for your freedom in Canada. But I don't understand you disdain for America. Our military is the only thing standing from Canada being invaded by a bad actor. Can we get a thank you?

                            It's more like our land mass is protecting the US. Let's face it, any "bad actor" isn't coming for us, they're coming for you.

                              So, you believe that Russia can't attack America because of Canada's land mass?


                              Please show the evidence you have that backs that up?
