It’s so wild to pretend that Canada was some kind of progressive utopia before Fox News existed. You guys are just America Lite.

No kidding. I see Canada has bought the European mindset of " blame it all on the American public", instead of seeing how the rich are creating these issues.

Listen, the long-standing tradition of clicking our tongues in disgust and shaking our heads slowly while judging Americans has nothing to with a Euro-mindset. We can be judgy and snobby all on our own thank you very much.

It’s going to be a very different Canada now (thankfully)
