The Green Party Is a Gift That Keeps On Giving

Whether it's denying the Holocaust or letting Elizabeth May open her fool yap, things like this remind everyone why the Green Party should never be taken seriously:

Green Party leader-for-life Elizabeth May has managed to irritate a large swath of Canadians by suggesting that the United States is no longer safe and that Canada should accept American minority citizens as refugees.

According to May, our neighbour to the south has become an entirely unsafe country under the leadership of President Donald Trump, and as such, Canada must accept Americans who claim refugee status. 

"We must not turn them away," said May in Ottawa on Wednesday. "Donald Trump has made the United States no longer safe." 

Should black Americans go to China then?

Oh, dear ... : 

Guangzhou has one of the largest African populations in China (400,000-500,000 by some estimates) and reports in early April showed discrimination against those residents, some of whom were left homeless or subject to arbitrary COVID-19 testing after authorities said that five Nigerians had tested positive for the virus. Significantly, the People’s Government of Guangzhou Province announced that a Nigerian man at a COVID ward had attacked and wounded a female nurse while allegedly attempting to flee, Chen told ABC, adding that this news circulated widely on social media. ABC News could not independently verify if the original report was true. 

Andrew said a taxi driver drive off when he saw him, and has also had issues with the authorities when riding on the metro. 

For no apparent reason, Andrew said he was asked by local police to produce his passport as he was trying to get the metro. When he asked why, he was told there was a new rule in place, and was given no explanation. Eventually he ceded to their demands: “I realized I was standing there, frustrating a group of people who did not create this rule,” he said. Now he mostly stays at home.

Interesting.

That sort of thing doesn't happen in the US.
