6 in 10 Canadians say they can never trust Americans the same way again
-
Americans always tell themselves these lies. Yes, only 65% voted, but the ones who didn’t vote weren’t all non-voting democrats. About half would have voted Trump if they’d voted. It’s not some small minority that supported Trump, it was a majority.
Not voting was a vote for anti democracy. So they got what they didn’t vote for.

Right now, they are a danger for more than just Canadians.
I’m not trying to be an apologist. I’m just saying most of us aren’t that stupid, xenophobic, and racist. But some of us definitely are.
I disagree. Drive out to rural Ontario, read the literal Trump and PPC signs, we’re no better than any Red State.

Oof… sorry.

As an American, the other 4 out of 10 must be idiots. GOP is on a mission to destroy everything that makes America a superpower.
Canada has their own far-right wing. I bet around 30% are MAGA types. If you look at any election, 30% usually vote insane.

This Canadian has been avoiding all US products I can and has zero plans to ever cross into the US border.
Americans are fucking stupid can’t be trusted.
Canada should fortify it’s southern border and get nukes.
I would even be into an American style vetting on Americans wanting into Canada. Lets check their phones. Sorry, MAGAt. You support Nazi’s and Trump. Fuck off!

The ones who preferred Harris, sure. The ones who preferred Trump got what they wanted without having to vote.

Sure…the US will let a country park nukes next door. See what happened the last time someone tried that.
The Kim dynasty is still in power.

“Impeach Trudeau”

I never understood this stereotype (aboot vs about). I’m Canadian, lived here all my life, my family is all Canadian and all have lived here all their lives. I’ve got family all across the country, from the western coast of BC to the eastern coast of Newfoundland, from the northern stretches of Nunavut to the most southern tip of Ontario, and very rarely have I ever heard it pronounced that way. It’s actually really funny as a Canadian to look up “how to speak like a Canadian” and watch how awful most of the “tips” are. I’d recommend it.
One time I was having a conversation with a woman that I had never met before. About 5 minutes into the conversation, she used a word with the “ou” vowel sound and I asked her if she was Canadian. She was caught off guard and didn’t understand how I correctly assumed she was Canadian.

You sound like Kim Jung Un, or that orange guy, when talking about nukes, and securing the southern border.

I get it, but like, this isn’t something the American people did. This has been orchestrated over decades by the wealthiest evilest mfers on earth. Definitely dont trust our government and dont trust the red-hatted folks, but do realize that if this plays out how they want, all of the regular peiple of the world are going to need to set aside that distrust. It has spread to England and Germany. Canada wont be immune.

Canada has a serious problem with a long term ally attacking our trade and saying we’re going to become their 51st state. Trump mocks and attacks our leaders and makes threats against us.
You can try to belittle my comments, but we have a valid reason to feel threatened.

Those 30% morons should move to the middle of bum fucking Mississippi.

Absolutely. Americans, Israeli, Russians are all regular people caught in the crossfire. There are some shitheads in support of their governments, and there are plenty more of those who reject it and will happily join the opposing forces, uniting internationally over the same goal.
And outside of political lens, people are still the same as they were a year or two or three ago. It’s just that different political circumstances highlight particular kinds of people.

They will fail to invade? Maybe this bay can be called Canadian bacon.
And Canada has nukes already, they are just labelled “usa”

Over half of the voters support what the government is doing. The US is cooked
No, they don’t. Every poll for the last decade puts the total MAGA support in the mid- to high 30s. MAGA is a very small minority of the world, but the difference is that they are sociopaths, so they have no problems violating legal and social norms to get what they want, while everybody else wants to play by the rules. Bad Faith players always get a big lead near the beginning, but eventually the treason, corruption, and incompetence that is inherent in EVERY authoritarian regime, destroys them from within.
If we give them enough rope, they will eventually hang themselves with their own virtuosic incompetence. The problem is the massive damage they will do to America and the word before they get there.

How does an American pronounce it?
A vast majority of the Canadians I know pronounce it the same way as “out”, “sprout”, “trout” etc.
To me a standard American accent sounds like they’re replacing the OU with AW, “abawt”. Or maybe “abowt” if they pronounced it like the bow of a ship (not like a fancy knot or the weapon).

This is almost 100% a latin american thing. They’re taught that the americas are a single continent. For some reason they’re really stuck on this point as if it’s some kind of gotcha (it isn’t). Everyone (including them) are aware of what nation is being discussed when we say america/americans. They should just get over it.
I’m a fan of pointing out that we aren’t even the only United States in North America.

Seems low. Where I live it’s probably closer to 90-95%

The American people control who is elected at the voting booth. THEY did this.
