RE:RE:A govt without a tax base is not a govt anymoreAnschutz wrote: Almost... when a country can no longer service its debt, the IMF moves in. In the most extreme case (which Canada is heading towards), the IMF/UN will declare the country a failed state. Failed states lose their standing of external self governance in the eyes of the international community. This results in the termination of a country's laws, constitutions, charters, first nation treaties/agreements, etc. Instead it is replaced with UN law.
Under UN law ALL assets and resources of country and citizens is seized and placed under control of the IMF. Personal savings and investements are not safe. All can be seized as payment for the 'free' services and stuff citizens received that led to the insolvency of the country.
This is Trudeau's plan for Canada. He was not joking when he stated Canada is a post nation state. Remember how back in 2015 he stated Canada would sunset it's fossil fuel industry? Just look where we are 6 years later and the path he's on. It's blatantly obvious either through inention or stupidity he tells us exactly what he's planning to do. Yet people cheer and vote for him. By the time they realize what's occurred it will be too late.

I concur with you view that the country is heading toward failed state status. It will happen before often mentioned 2030. The WEF mantra "you will own nothing and will be happy" will take it's true meaning. They will define what the word happy means however and its not what most people think. I am seeing a resurgence of people walking in the middle of the street alone or driving their car alone with masks on.
