If I was a rich guy I’d be all for it, less traffic for me to drive/be driven through.

Kinda lame to boo someone you’re bullying. Loser behavior if you ask me.

I completely understand the feeling. After the 2022 “freedom convoys” the maple leaf became associated with similar kinds of people. Canada Day 2022 was not a day filled with patriotism. It slowly made its way back to normal over the next 2 years, but up until the last few months someone with a flag flying from their car window still gave off a particular negative vibe. Now it’s back and bigger than ever.

If you scroll down their page there’s a photo of the car with RCAF roundels parked under the nose of an Avro.

Edit: just realized I clicked a link from a different comment not the original post.

After years of being lumped in the same group with every momentarily [in]famous idiot from each of our countries, years of disregard of our regional differences and being plastered with stereotypes from obscure towns a whole country away, it’s time we get to stop caring. The United States of America is threatening us. Not one guy, not one party, not certain states. Why should we give a shit that you live in one state or another? As the saying goes, if you’re not part of the solution you’re part of the problem. I don’t see many solutions, just a whole lot of distancing yourself from those who represent you by whatever arbitrary distinction you can come up with. America is the problem. We don’t want to hear from you until you’ve solved it.

Well both Russia and the United States have shown that treaties and other agreements with them are only worth anything until they unilaterally change their mind, so something like blocking Ukraine from NATO could easily be ignored if the United States (or Russia) ever sees an election again.

Cars actually Built in the states will have a VIN starting with 1, 4, 5, or 7. 2 means Canada and a 3 followed by a letter means Mexico.

The fun thing is due to Tesla’s business model this would effectively stop all Tesla sales overnight. Already bought one? Unless you’re picking it up in the next day or two it probably hasn’t cleared customs yet. Might want to cancel.

If cutting power is still on the table, sometime in the next 2 hours would be hilarious.

The thing I don’t understand is that they’re also clearly not dressed for the cold American winter either, it’s not like the climate cares about the border.

Because most real headlines involving the word trump would be considered too unrealistic to be good satire.

Hmm, I’m worried to find out if we’re talking a Fahrenheit/Celsius kinda scale where our expectations become negative at some point, or if it’s more of a Kelvin where absolute 0 is the destruction of planet earth or life as we know it.

What’s going on in Sweden? We’re not used to hearing about this many shootings in a country other than the US.

It’s pretty clearly a garlic article.

Canada and Mexico folded by “making” deals with him that were already announced months ago? Who’s the chump in that situation?

I’ve see a single Renault up here in Canada every summer for the past few years and the one time I got close enough I saw it had Mexican plates on it.

I managed to do a pretty good grocery shop today and I managed to only buy 1 American onion. There was a local option but I couldn’t justify buying (or carrying) 25lbs without a plan. It’s a local grocery store though, and I’m confident they’re working on making buying Canadian/boycotting American products much easier very soon.

If they make the best aged gasoline then why not? As long as it’s not American.

I don’t really understand what your point is. Do you mean our election campaigns don’t last 4 years? Y’all could plan to book voting day off 20 years in advance because it’s not a surprise, ours can pop up any time with a month’s notice. And by importance do you mean our PM generally doesn’t have the power to crater the world economy in a matter of days? Or are you saying ours are more important because we vote for the entire government on 1 day and you just pick one guy?
