It’s really not that the Canadian government is necessarily any good or even better than the one in the USA. But in case of an invasion there would be a war going on and violent deaths would be expected. Although the part with penises in mouths would most likely constitute a warcrime.
Thats assuming that the current states are able to keep their voting rights.
Check BBC. They have pretty cood coverage of global news. Other might be Deutsche Welle, which despite the name is in English.
The best option would be to follow the news in Italian if at all possible. I actively follow the news in four languages and it really helps to show how differently they report on the same events. If you ever wonder why, for example, Sweden, Germany and USA have so different opinions on Palestine vs. Israel, just checking how their respective medias report about it in their own languages makes it clearer.
Do you have the means to reach this place? Lets say that you get the warning tomorrow, are you able to reach the island?
Well… My health conditions mean that I am unlikely to survive long term after apocalypse. Even if no zombies get me. The first week would be fine, the first month maybe, but I wouldnt be alive to see the second year. I could try to do a camping trip to see if the “apocalypse” passes over quickly. If not, then there is no point trying to plan for long term survival.
If a country gets away with not having a mandatory military service, then it sholdn’t have one. Forcing people (usually just men) to spend a substancial amount of time in something, they might have zero motivation to, is unjust.
That being said, I absolutely support the fact that we do have a conscription based army here in Finland. There simply is an existential imperative for an army that is wastly larger than what could be achieved with volunteers. Maybe an initial fighting force could be mustered, but we would have problems refreshing it throug years of heavy attritional combat. Like Ukraine could most likely never maintain a fighting force through volunteer only.
That being said there is an option of civilian service here in Finland. I hold no grudge against anyone choosing that option. I agree that the system is fundamentally injust. I just see no alternative.
I’m douptfull that such a list exists. At least not in a comprehensive form.
Very traditional sleeping schedule you have.
I try to be asleep by 22, but that doesn’t always work out. As I get older it gets harder and harder to stay awake long in the evenings. I have also begun to enjoy early mornings more.
Unfortunately I’m employed so that I have three nightshifts every week. So my sleepschedule is somewhat problematic.
Very good question. Where I live they are supposed to be separated as “dangerous waste”, because people are not trusted to empty them themselves.
ALL planes land. The question is, whether or not there is someone left to clap afterwards.
