Most Americans like Canada and barely even see it as a separate country. Certainly not a foreign country.
That’s kinda the problem bud, we ARE a separate country. Just because you might not have to get on a plane doesn’t mean crossing the Canadian border isn’t international travel (necessitating your passport).
It’s the attitude like this that has fed the “might as well become a state” rhetoric. We quite literally are a foreign country because we’re not part of theirs. Unless Americans only use the word foreign to mean scary/nonwhite.
thats the crux of the problem.
we are NOT the same country. we have similar culture and values, similar, but not the same.
there are some things that Canadians firmly choose the Red door on, where Americans chose the Blue door.
those fundemental differences is what makes us a seperate country. there are many things we are on the same page of, but there are many things we might as well be cats and dogs on as well.
Ummm… You should see it as another country and foreign isn’t a bad word. You can be neighbours and friends but you are not the same.
Much like Australians and Kiwis aren’t the same. Cousins, yes. Besties, yes. But not the same. And it’s disrespectful to think you are. Both have their own identities and that’s a good thing.
The process of annexing Canada began in 2059, as the Resource Wars began ramping up in the wake of the Euro-Middle Eastern War and the nuclear destruction of Tel Aviv
(…) Despite mass protests, the country’s resources were exploited and stretched to the breaking point to support the American war effort, such as vast stretches of timberland being destroyed beyond recovery. By 2069, public opinion to the south had turned against Canada, with the nation becoming known by the derogative “Little America” in the minds of U.S. citizens
(…) Despite the outcry, the military initiative forged ahead. Propaganda portrayed the annexation as a “liberation”,
… cool :(
Just wanted to re-iterate, just in case…
Sane Americans do not feel this way. In fact, I daresay the majority of us would probably gladly emigrate to Canada if we could.
Fuck the USA.
Sincerely, US Citizens everywhere.
I hate to tell you this, but Trump is becoming very popular with the average Canadian. The average Canadian hates their own government so much that they’d rather throw it away and become America’s 51st state. If you come to Canada to escape MAGA you’re just going to run into more MAGA.
That is the problem across the west, both parties are captured by the rich, and the only protest vote, the only real reform vote, is for the far right in league with these guys, and russia, and they are planning on fixing elections to never lose power to boot.
It will happen, especially with the US and Russia helping behind the scenes, unless we get popular reform options in the west, and we still don’t have that, trusting the oligarchy’s tools in our parties, the keir starmers, to run the opposition to fascism and their far right.
Yes. Those “good” neighbors that always smile and act chipper when you pass them on the street. The ones who rarely hesitate to tell you, or anyone who will listen, how much different and BETTER they are than you. How they wish they weren’t living in the same neighborhood as you even…to the point where they start deluding their selves that they’re now a part of the euro neighborhood…even while they’re still living next to you. The ones who have “neighborhood watch” obligations that they don’t uphold because they’d rather watch you spend all your money on keeping things safe for the kiddos and gramma while they talk crap about what a warmonger you are for spending your money on protection rather than pretension. Oh and they have the graves of Indigenous children in their backyards. But let us not speak of that now. Greatest neighbors ever!
Show me on the doll where the Canadians touched you.
I’d like to say this is a surprising take.
How’s that “keeping safe” part going? Any time now, right?
We are sorry Canada 🇨🇦! As soon as we get this under control we hope to mend our relationship ASAP. Don’t lose faith in all of us… We still love ya!
we’ve only lost faith in most of you
