What gets me is that no one seems to be mentioning exactly what it means that US is entering their 'Papers please' phase, and that supporting a fascist state isn't a very Canadian thing to do.

Not wanting to be hassled at the border, or having our sovereignty threatened is an understandable reason for avoiding the US, but it's also pretty selfish.

I wish I see more people, and Canadian news media talking about the bigger side of it as in 'We don't support fascism'

That should be an integral part of our identity, especially if we want to ensure the Conservatives stop trying to normalise maple maga ideals.

Yeah even if the US wasn't threatening us, I'm not giving them more money to spend on torturing people.
