  • Fukan hell, have to repeat this:

    Canada is twice colonized, by brits and yanks. We feel it. We joke and gripe about it. We mostly put up with it and it’s hard to explain to outsiders or newcomers, but especially to americans, who do not see themselves as colonizers and scoff at the notion.

    But do not underestimate how a hundred years or more of threats (yes the latest bullshit is nothing new really) and dismissive subtle put downs and cultural erasure just gets under your skin.

    It winds up being a cliché that we define ourselves in opposition to the USA.

    To be Canadian is to NOT be American, no joke. And we are proud.

    So stop fucking speculating or wondering or talking like it will ever happen. We will jihad the shit out of you if you invade.
