    How long Canadians will boycott the US is directly related to how long the MAGA cult will remain in control of the US government and how fast the next government can repair the damage they’ve caused. Which won’t be quick.

      Tell that to the Yanks on here, most of them will say you’re “weaponizing ignorance,” or “spreading propaganda.”

        Yeah, you shouldn’t come here. No one should. Shits bad here. Have you heard of ICE??? No, not frozen water. The bad ICE.

        Nothing in this country is worth visiting.

        Seriously. The American liberals almost irritate me more than the Maga fuckshow morons. It just feels like they should KNOW BETTER but they don’t, and they play into the same stereotypes but are somehow even more oblivious to it.

          I had someone telling me that the US military would never attack US citizens. That they would revolt and the entire military would go against Trump. I’m pretty sure they were current or ex military themselves. And, I think they may have been a few timbits short of a box.

            I think much of the us military would be fine attacking AMERICAN citizens, never mind Canadian ones. What a joke.

            I was a military officer and on the surface that is correct; however, in reality it is not true. Will some officers and NCOs do their job and follow the law, yes they will but the majority will do as they are told and be happy about it. At one point I felt the officer corp would hold to the Constitution but over the last year I have lost faith. Prepare for what is coming.

    So according to the article America only saw a 3.5% drop in international spending and Canadians make up a quarter of that spending?

    Barely a drop in the bucket, is this headline even justified?
