This headline is subtly dismissive.

"Angry" and "right now" both suggest a transient state. That's not what we're seeing.

"Canada has finally had enough of the USA" would be a more apt title; or "Canada reaches its breaking point."

Alongside of the #Never51 hashtag is an almost equally frequent #NeverGoBack. Canada, as a nation, as a people, are making the decision to go their own way, and never be so beholden to any country as we have been to the USA since 1959.

Never. Go. Back.

I used to be angry.

I still am, but I used to be, too.

I hope you're right, but the public's memory is short.

Yea, in the US it lasts less than 4 years.

I just hope people remember than even AFTER the government changes, the companies and people behind them are still the same.

The anger I'm seeing isn't just at Trump, it's at Americans in general.

They voted for this lunatic, twice. How can we possibly trust that shit like this won't ever happen again?

Not to mention the 1/3 of eligible voters who couldn't fucking be bothered to vote at all. Fuck them too.

Same in Ontario. Thanks for giving us Doug Ford 3 times in a row, non-voters.

Let's leave a little bit of anger for those at home who are enthusiastically supporting Poilievre. They would happily lead Canada down the same path as the USA.

That is a different anger budget

After reading about Rubio's stupidity during the G7 meeting, Brussels should ask Canada to join the EU. It would force the UK to vote again, the EU would be number one in GDP and Putin's Fucking Sock Puppet would have an aneurysm.

What I can say for sure is the odds that there will be some kind of political or economic rupture between the US and Canada that lasts decades into the future have gone up substantially just over the course of the past few months.

Yup. Trump's legacy will not be a glowing one at all.

I doubt that. He fucked up the first time around, broke shit, wrecked things, stole classified documents, convicted of 34 felons, stole PPE from blue states to kill them during covid and millions needlessly died during covid. What happened? Nothing. People don't really remember any of that. He was never punished for any of his actions or crimes.

Trump is the prime example of American hubris and apathy.

Trump's goal was to sow division

Everything's going to plan
