Christopher Sands, director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Canadian Studies in Washington, said it's not a surprise Canadian antipathy toward the U.S. has not gotten any better — the 51st state talk is gone but the tariffs are still wreaking havoc.

I don't give a fuck about the tarrifs. 51st shit you only have to say once and I'm fuckin' done.

    Because he never thought he'd get this far and has no fucking clue what he's doing, like a dog that caught the car it was chasing

    And he shat himself. Some say it's because he heard Trump shit his diaper and did it to match his leader. Some say it's because he was completely unprepared for the responsibility and shat himself out of fear. But everyone agrees he shat himself and has no idea what to do next.

    Exactly. People are being abducted off the street by plainclothes "officers" (who's to know?), put in the back of unmarked cars, and disappeared. A Canadian died in detainment from being denied access to live-saving prescription medication.

    Tariffs are so far down my list of reasons for not traveling to the US.

    If Mr. Sands thUnKs this is mostly about tariffs, he does not understand his subject very well.

    I have more than one piece of clothing that says Never 51. I do not have any anti-tariff propaganda.

    Do not get me wrong. The tariffs are destructive and wrong. But I am not emotional about them.

    It's not only the 51st state shit but their continued gaslighting to make it seem like Canada has always been the aggressor.

    The U.S. ambassador to Canada said this a few days ago:

    "You ran a campaign where it was anti-American, elbows up, me too. You know, that was an anti-American campaign. That has continued. That's disappointing."

    Excuse me? Canada ran a campaign? You trash talk Canada, our PM, our citizens, tell lies about drugs coming across our border, and start a trade war with us and you expect us to just forget it? There was no campaign. This was Canada reacting to US aggression they haven't stopped. Fuck the US. It's going to take years to fix what they've done.

    Until then, I just took a shit. The Americans can eat it.
