We can tell ourselves, don't overreact.
We can tell ourselves, well, hey, the king likes us.
We can hope that NATO will protect us.
We can tell ourselves, well, the midterms are coming and everything's going to be returning to normal again.
Or we can face the fact that the only thing that will save this beautiful and at times fragile democracy is ourselves, the Canadian people.

10 simple steps every Canadian should take to protect our democracy
One
I promise to do whatever I can to defend the sovereignty, territorial integrity,
Two
I promise to respond to the best of my abilities to help in times of national disasters, floods, fires, or threats to our border.
Three
I promise to upgrade my skills to help my community and my country,
whether in emergency preparedness, first aid, or other training.
Four
I promise to show up for my community and country by voting and participating in grassroots democratic actions, including resistance against anti-democratic threats.
Five
I promise to remain true to the values of inclusion, fairness, and respect for indigenous rights, and I will do my best to ensure that no one is singled out because of their s*x, gender, race, or religious background.
Six
I promise to boycott everything I can coming out of the United States and to support regional food sovereignty through buying local wherever possible.
Seven
I promise to be an active blocker of disinformation and hate.
Eight
I promise to be active locally, helping to create small groups of resistors and to recruit fence hitters. Solidarity supports courage. We cannot do this alone.
Nine
I promise to be a non-cooperator with tyranny. If my company or institution has contracts with tyrants or attempts to roll back rights, I will voice opposition, slow walk the work, or refuse altogether. Our labor is power. We need to push the corporate, education, and political sectors to take a stand.
Ten
I promise that if our territorial integrity is breached, either externally or internally, I will be an active disruptor. I will refuse to obey any orders from those who would undermine our sovereignty and will engage in mass acts of mass resistance and disobedience to frustrate invaders, demoralize those fake authorities, and make it impossible for any undemocratic threat to govern us.
