In other words, some Republican senators still want to insert the knife into Caanda, to drain our lifeblood, but they want it done compassionately.

“Bookings of Canadians to come to Virginia Beach are down significantly, and colleagues of mine in other states are saying the same thing about tourism,” Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia told Stephenson. “So we’re definitely seeing it.
I will never visit the United States again. You have the gestapo snatching people off the streets now. A large percentage of your population approves of what is happening, while not requiring the propaganda to reach or hold that conclusion.
“We were aware, because we all have great friends in Canada, that there was a lot of anxiety about, well, gosh, what do Americans think of us?” he said in explaining what spurred the senators’ visit. “The five of us wanted to come to say, ‘Look, we love Canada.'”
The anxiety that you’re referencing is a direct result of your country unilaterally choosing to betray us. Not that guy Donald Trump, but you. You enabled all of this, and you have absolutely no idea how to walk any of this back. You’re under the impression that you can fix this in an election cycle.
I agree with everything else here, but propaganda absolutely plays a role in the current fascist movement in the States. The Venn diagram of Trump supporters and people who watch Fox News is probably pretty close to a circle.
To be clear, propaganda matters.
I’m saying that there’s a segment of the fascist populace that is utterly aware of what is real, what is bullshit, and are quite content with the presence of said bullshit, as long as it maintains the current reality.
An unambiguous apology and groveling would help.
It wouldn’t hurt.
I’m fine with some governor expressing concern with harm to their local economy, as that’s literally their job.
But this is geopolitics, and they’re clearly out of their element when trying to grasp the stakes.
Americans do not even TRY to understand Canadians.
