Good call. The odds of Bezos of being part of Vichy America's cabal is high. A man who prefers their deliveryfolk to piss in bottles and break their bodies in warehouses, is pretty likely to support a war machine that assaults Canada.

It will be important for Canada to divorce itself from as many Vichy services and goods as possible.

Vichy America has a ring to it.

I mean, if we want to be really accurate, it's more like Nationalist Spain or Mussolini's Italy, but people don't history enough for that to make sense rhetorically.

We could use a better name, but for now it will have to do. I expect that we will have a civil war down the line, and a more suitable name will arise. Of course, Facist America would still call itself America. Hm. We could call it "Famica"?

Feel free to toss names into the hat.

I was about to cave use Amazon because how much cheaper things were compared to eBay.

That story about pissing in bottles came out right when I made my account and Iโ€™ve never once used it. Donโ€™t even remember the password.

Much of the time eBay is cheaper. I can get free shipping most of the time for small items. It just takes a little longer to arrive.
