Good Evening eCanada,
I had originally planned to have this article out 8ish hours ago, but was called on a RL conference. Regardless here it is:
Asgard Referendum
Firstly, and probably the most important matter to be discussed is our alliance, Asgard. Asgard held a meeting yesterday and many discussions were had. There are people for expansion and against it, needs for better communication and general support over the past few months. I am going to be blunt. It is no secret that Asgard is weak and pales in comparison to other alliance or that we are all wiped or close to it. Problems aside though, Asgard is there for brotherhood. Something that eCanada has held close to her heart over the years in eRepublik.
I want to know what you think. Over the next few days, you will recieve a PM from myself or members of my cabinet including a link for the referendum and a request to attend a debate. PM me if you would like to help us! Please fill it out!
Work Tax
If we do manage to get congress this month, either through fighting or diplomacy. Please fill out this form. My MoF team will analyze the responses and release an article on which number is best for us.
Spain
Oh Spain... We won in NFLD but it looks like Spain's not happy with that. Look. I am disappointed I must say, as we are having a meeting with them tomorrow, we should have at least talked first. All I can say is: We are not going down without a fight! This time we have a gift from Plato. I'll let you all know what comes out of the meeting tomorrow!
A great article by Pat Harper which expresses my thoughts, and I am sure yours too can be found here
Until next time,
Stay Classy eCanada,

Considering that the next congress election is in 10 days, there is still a high concern that Spain can wipe out us again and as usual by conquering our only region. There is a lot of uncertainty and fear.
In the eyes of Spain we are a demoralized conquered country without regions and low population. But let me ask: can we consider ourselves insignificant with more than 1100 citizens? We barely have the same population of Lithuania but them dominated a big region. We certainly can make a difference but we need a change of strategy. It is not wise to expect different results doing the same things.
Well yes, Spain will wipe us again, we are no match for Spain/TWO in a MPP battle. Believe me there is literally no fear, basically only some uncertainty on whether we can hold a region for congress.
Lithuania is in an advantageous situation, much different than ours. Their enemies are smaller than us (our Nordic allies) even, plus they get a lot of support from TWO. Our strategy is always changing to take advantage of our situation at that moment, whatever it may be.
Lithuania is a good foreign diplomat, eCan traditionally has sucked at that but we are working on it.
Good luck
I understand that having no regions clearly impacts motivations, but why you do not use the fact that you are occupied to bring new players for the game to help you. We stayed occupied for the best part of 9 months, before reaching an agreement with Spain but at least we were able to renew a lot our community and today our D1 is able to beat Spain (1 to 1 not against all TwO obviously) and our D2 is able to give them a good fight. Canada lower division are more or less the same after this occupation.
There are things that are outside your control, and what Spain does is one of them, but there are things that citizens of Canada can do to improve their country, and sometimes the feeling that you are progressing even if that does not translates into regions is good enough to create a positive feeling on the community.
Good luck
I feel like quitting sometimes, but then I realize my account is fairly strong and it would be a waste to let it sit idle, especially given the circumstances.
I die free, for eCanada.
It is your personal choice, or take a break(two clicks approach). It is understandable that after a few months with no changes and not clear perspectives that finally situation is going to be in our favour, well, I also would feel worn and about to quit. But I agree with John Bokinski. Who say in life that things would be always in your favour? this is the time that experienced players should lead by their example and encourage all the newbies like me to improve all days a little. This is where we can make the difference.
I see your point, but I have been in two-click mode for about a year now and occasionally fight in priority battles. I put in a good year of leading when I started, and i'd like to take up the responsibility once more, but unfortunately I don't have the time... perhaps such a day will come again. Until then, i'll just drone along.

"If we do manage to get congress this month, either through fighting or diplomacy. Please fill out this form. My MoF team will analyze the responses and release an article on which number is best for us."
To be candid, you don't have time to kick this issue around. If you get a congress, this needs to be changed to the minimum, 1%, as soon as possible. If congress spends time dickering around and debating "perfection" the moment could be lost. 1% is the number, hands down. Anything more than that is complete economic silliness and will absolutely squish people out of this country.
Seriously, your request to fill out a form for input on determining the number shakes me to my core. You don't need an MoF team to figure it out, it's blatently obvious. The fact that you are considering anything else has be looking for the exit doors of this country.
You are completely correct, I just want people's opinion. I highly doubt we'd pick anything other than 1%
