    It is interesting to see that Canadian apathy has suddenly turned into a united stand for Canada.

    I heard a 10 year old kid in the store yesterday, “Dad, can I get this? I checked , it is made in Canada”

    It sucks it has come to this.

    Doug Ford is a douche, but he is enough of a douche to not be politically correct in terms of relations with the USA.

        I don’t, but that’s mostly because I like having very good Internet access and I’m European.

        If I was USian, I’d wish I was Canadian.

          What’s your Internet? I’ll you mine if your tell me yours.

          I’m gigabit both directions and I could get as high as 3. I’ve heard they are testing 5 some areas. My 1gbit is around 90 of Canadian money. It’s fibre to my apt.

          Sucks because my profession doesn’t really exist in Canada, so I can’t bring anything of value if I try to immigrate there.

            How does a profession not exist in Canada? Are you a 3rd party medical markup expert?

      American (and Canadian) politicians have fucked over Canada every step of the way for a long as I can remember but it was always done with the thinnest veneer of diplomacy to cover up the absolute disregard for an entire country’s population. This is the first time that a politician has been dumb enough to fuck over not only the people of Canada but also it’s oligarchs. Canada’s ruling class has decided it’s ok to revolt against our neighbour’s bad behaviour and so it’s being spun by the news and politicians as ‘Canadian Patriotism.’

        Nope. You can’t let trump bully us into becoming part of the USA. If this is what it takes for Canada to grow balls I’m all for it.
