    Does the person blackmailing them have a name very similar to a popular Canadian dish made with french fries?

      Btw, I know it’s recognized as a Canadian dish, and Canada likes to flex it, but just wanted to say in passing, it’s a Quebec dish!

              A bunch of dumb fucks wanted to split a while back, had a referendum that almost passed Brexit style. it’s been pretty moot since but there are a lot of conservative idiots in Quebec, like Texas.

              The only key difference is Quebec has the largest power company and a huge hydroelectric power source, so we’ve got that going for us, which is nice…

                If your electrical system continues working when it’s both cold and hot, then you’re miles ahead of Texas!

                  We were born in the cold, molded by it. I didn’t see grass until I was already a man and global warming removed winters completely.

                  Jokes aside it breaks pretty often because of bad weather, but gets repaired within a few hours.

          I mean sure, as much a Louisiana or southern cooking is from “the US”. You wouldn’t say “US hot sauce” lol.

          Go to BC and your poutine will be shit.

            Poutine is shit anywhere outside of Quebec but it doesn’t change the fact that Quebec is in Canada which makes it Canadian.

              I mean sure? It’s a north american dish too at that point. And it’s still not wrong to say poutine isn’t from all of Canada, it’s from one place where people are Canadian lmao.

                  Literally how I started this whole thing.

                  “Semantics, but it’s from Quebec”.

                  Then yall went on long rants to tell me I’m wrong. If yall don’t think you look like idiots arguing semantics…keep angrily downvoting all my comments too, makes you look real subjective.

                    But why even argue semantics? Because you like the attention even if it’s negative?

                    So childish.

      Unlikely, this is more of the domestic and close ally variety e.g. Epstein’s handlers/killers, or of that same caliber. The kind of people who can waive off, or prevent, an FBI counterintelligence operation from getting in the way…
