    As an American, I can’t blame you for having this sentiment. Canada and Canadians don’t deserve the stupid shit the Trump administration and its followers are dishing out. Like many here, I’m disgusted that we are treating one of our closest abd staunchest allies in such a crappy way. I hope you guys continue to play hardball on this stuff.

      I’ve got both family and friends in the U.S., and have always enjoyed my time there, like most Canadians I think - but we’re pissed off now, and we’re gonna protect ourselves and the country we love any way we can. Here’s hoping this madness ends soon, although right now it’s hard to see how :-(. Cheers, and thanks for the support!

        It’s going to require my fellow Americans grow a brain and a conscience. Or learn that y’all’re’nt just silly maple folks who like hockey but a whole entire country that can and will fight back

            Oh but the stereotype is that polite people never would. “Canadians will apologize for their face being in front of your fist” and whatnot. Meanwhile American culture has evolved to a stage in which only weak losers care about other people or promote social cohesion.
