- RandallBrown 7y agoThe decline in legitimacy would come from the devastating effects of shutting down trade with Canada.
- munk-a 7y agoTo clarify - shutting down trade isn't on the table right now - all trade lines will be kept open for the immediate future. This announcement was solely about persons moving for non-logistical reasons.
- gpm 7y agoShutting down trade would be stupid, but it wouldn't have any effect on the legitimacy of the government. We are pretty damn secure about the legitimacy of our electoral process.
