If you really don't want to sign up for EhNow (which is Canadian), I added a screenshot with the info. EhNow link: https://ehnw.ca/e/s2xmHJqhTU6vvC0uHNFeZw

Edit: Alright people, here's a new link. Don't worry it's not a phishing attack, it's not spam, or whatever other horrific thing you're assuming, you don't have to go through the horror of creating a free account on a Canadian website, it's all right here on Lemmy where you created a free account on a Canadian website. I am simply trying to spread the word about this protest. https://lemmy.ca/c/never51

I'm, uh, curious. Protesting what? To who?

Like, I get that the American government has been exceptionally shitty, but I don't see what a Canadian protest is gonna do about it.

I pray that we'll return to being a reasonable neighbor asap. I promise we're feeling it more than you are.

    I don’t see what a Canadian protest is gonna do about it.

    It reminds any Canadian still spending time or money in that shitstain of a country, that they are openly supporting fascism.

    I hope to protest the belligerent, destructive foreign policy of the United States and make it clear to all concerned that in the opinion of the people of Canada, that the United States is an adversary, no longer an ally and not a country that can be trusted or taken at its word.

    You sure got me. Are you also responsible for everything your government does?

    I don't pray for my government to do things, if that's what you mean. I do things like vote, and protest when the big country next door threatens to make me part of the 51st state and constantly and relentlessly bullies and insults me.

    You should read what they wrote. You’re protesting things you say you don’t like but then you say you protest people who agree with you. Pick a lane? Or maybe everyone is your enemy?

    I don't remember saying any of that. Did YOU read what I wrote? Is everyone being my enemy some sort of guess on your part? This kind of stupid shit is exactly why I left reddit. Learn how to have an adult conversation instead of "Oh maybe you're this oh maybe you're that oh you think this and you think that" Go outside.

    Violence is the only answer. If violence isnt working its because youre not using enough of it.

    Protesting does absolutely nothing.

    I agree...but I would NEVER openly advocate for violence against the Americans on an open internet forum! I'm clutching my pearls with such shock and offence at the very idea! Oh no of course not we must ONLY protest and not get violent. And the Americans should certainly NOT get violent towards their government with their second amendment and all of their guns that they all have the right to and whatnot for basically the exact thing happening right now. Oh no how terrible that would be if they used all those precious guns of theirs to put a stop to the fascism. Certainly I would not advocate for violence like that oh no not me I am only posting about a protest.
