Boycott US

Overview:
The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.
Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.
America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.
America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

An intellectual shithole called Alberta.
Alberta, usually. Plenty of pro-Trumpers around the country though.
Last I actually spoke to one in person last year, they said the administration was "getting rid of corruption and waste" rather than doing the exact opposite.
Oh come now. We got our idiots (who are in power) but the strongest pro us area in Canada is in Ontario (who also has an idiot in power) around Windsor. Sometimes I think us Canadians just like to pass off national actions as some other province's issues.
I did mention there were plenty around the country, but I used to live around the Essex County area. The border towns will always be more supportive because they generally have stronger business/economic relationships with the US. It's really more of a hostage situation, because manufacturing (huge automotive sector, mainly) wants their metals and gets hit harder during Tariff Tantrums. Plenty of folks also cross over to stores when the exchange rate is good, families might visit each other, someone'll skip SCC or UoW to go to U Michigan, etc. No loud minority with Premier support begging to split from Canada though, last I heard.
Then once you leave the city proper, there just aren't many people around 'til you hit, say, Chatham.
And for what it's worth... despite Ford's long run, Windsor itself used to be very Liberal/NDP (something like 60% between the two) until very recently.
THE FUCK YOU ALBERTANS DOING TO MY BELOVED BANFF

They're far too busy infighting over rigged referendums and secession talks to worry about something as ridiculous and inconsequential as the environment and its preservation, silly!
