In reply to the discussion: Is Canada's democracy on the brink of collapse? [View all]Spazito
(55,173 posts)23. You do know there are 4 big crossings from Michigan to Ontario, right?
Michigan has four land border crossings along the 721 miles it shares with Ontario, all of which are extremely busy (top 10 highest volume crossings between the two countries). These crossings are Sault Ste. Marie International Bridge, Blue Water Bridge, Detroit Windsor Tunnel, and Ambassador Bridge.
As you can see there are other major crossings available and open right now.
Here is a list of the various land border crossing between Canada and the US, you might find it informative:

Yes, codswallop. In any case, "a new election" is not a collapse of democracy. OP stranger to logic.

Your conclusion, "a new election", is not anarchy. Most consider elections hallmark of democracy.nt

You seriously misunderstand my position- it's not that a new election would be anarchy
