    Lumping demographics together because of the actions of a few or just one guy isn’t something I’m comfortable with.

    Hell Canada would like to see our country collapse because our senile orange criminal jackass president decided to brain fart talk about annexing them and I rather not be lumped into that crowd.

    I miss being on friendly terms with our allies and I don’t want to think ill of their peoples.

      We don’t want to see the US collapse. We want to punish the aggression against us. If Trump were to disappear overnight, and efforts were made to repair the relationship between our countries, I think it would relatively quickly go back to a semblance of normality, but surely there would always be some hesitation, knowing that all it takes to fuck it all up is another bad election which could happen at any time.

      We don’t hate America, we hate the current state of it. In the same way that sanctions work against governments that are doing awful things, we’re all, as a collective, putting efforts into trying to make our aggressors face consequences.

        I hope Canada takes every necessary step to ensure its people remain safe and prosper.

        Please remember that the American agressors are a minority and literal hundreds of millions of United States residents would rather just be on good terms with Canada.

        I personally wish my countrymen would stop being so racist against Mexico.

          enough people voted him in and gave him power. And another 3rd were apathetic enough to step aside and let that happen. So it’s not so much a minority causing WWIII here. If it were : we’d be congratulating you on your win with Kamala rn.
