Why is this foreign born person still in the US? Didn't Trump say he wanted to deport naturalized citizens? Deport ~~Ted~~ Rafael Edward Cruz back to Canada! Send him back!

Canada has its own problems for sure, but Ted Cruz's family moved to Texas when he was 4. He's definitely more a product of American culture than Canadian culture.

I think we can all agree that the uber rich are the issue and not each other.

Hey, don't blame us for Murdoch. He's Australian, he only bought US citizenship in his fifties in order to spread his hate better.

... Saying that becoming American helped with that doesn't really strengthen my case here, does it?

Right, because Canadians are the only victim here.

The hypocrisy is palpable.

I dated a Canadian once and you'd have to wait an hour to use the bathroom after her but maybe that was because she was a vegan.

Anyways what are those shifty Canadians up to up there?

What's the fascism problem you're talking about?

There are a handful of loud Maple MAGAs that have been continually losing elections. So yeah, there's some of that here. However, OP is just salty that the US is a fiery shitshow and is deflecting.

Wow you sure know a lot about Canada. You must have been here a long time, huh? Surely your opinion is based on experience and a deep understanding of our culture. There's no way that opinion is based on internet discourse.

Canadians are very well aware of how we've treated and continue to treat Indigenous people. There's an active movement towards reconciliation and self governance. Canadians are not ignorant of the history or the current situation. You are.
