The Canadian establishment's love and adoration for everything the US does gives a chance for elbows up just being patient gaslighting. You should understand that chance as a probability when Canada's military and diplomatic policy has persisted in its colonial service to US despite their attacks and threats to us.
The CBC's coverage of this is sickening in its normalization of US evil. More than usual is needed because their marching orders is that our adoration and devotion can only increase from here.
