Christopher Sands, director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Canadian Studies in Washington, said it's not a surprise Canadian antipathy toward the U.S. has not gotten any better — the 51st state talk is gone but the tariffs are still wreaking havoc.
I don't give a fuck about the tarrifs. 51st shit you only have to say once and I'm fuckin' done.
Just a day or 2 ago that fbi cuck Patel was making comments about Canada. I will see if I can find post and put it up.
Edit Here
and this from yesterday.
Why does he look like a deer on a trailcam?
Because he never thought he'd get this far and has no fucking clue what he's doing, like a dog that caught the car it was chasing
And he shat himself. Some say it's because he heard Trump shit his diaper and did it to match his leader. Some say it's because he was completely unprepared for the responsibility and shat himself out of fear. But everyone agrees he shat himself and has no idea what to do next.
Why is the word terrorism censored?
That's just the Dubya pronunciation
Terrrism
That, and, you know, the authoritarian dictator racist fascist military state Nazi shit.
Exactly. People are being abducted off the street by plainclothes "officers" (who's to know?), put in the back of unmarked cars, and disappeared. A Canadian died in detainment from being denied access to live-saving prescription medication.
Tariffs are so far down my list of reasons for not traveling to the US.
They probably googled "Canada ice" and were like "OMG look at all the hits! These guys get it!"
the 51st state talk is gone
It's not even gone, this is from a few days ago

If Mr. Sands thUnKs this is mostly about tariffs, he does not understand his subject very well.
I have more than one piece of clothing that says Never 51. I do not have any anti-tariff propaganda.
Do not get me wrong. The tariffs are destructive and wrong. But I am not emotional about them.
It's not only the 51st state shit but their continued gaslighting to make it seem like Canada has always been the aggressor.
The U.S. ambassador to Canada said this a few days ago:
"You ran a campaign where it was anti-American, elbows up, me too. You know, that was an anti-American campaign. That has continued. That's disappointing."
Excuse me? Canada ran a campaign? You trash talk Canada, our PM, our citizens, tell lies about drugs coming across our border, and start a trade war with us and you expect us to just forget it? There was no campaign. This was Canada reacting to US aggression they haven't stopped. Fuck the US. It's going to take years to fix what they've done.
Until then, I just took a shit. The Americans can eat it.
Well done canucks!
A spokesperson for the company said there's been notable spike in viewership for homegrown programs like ... Murdoch Mysteries (44 per cent) ... so far this year compared to the same period in 2024.
This is us!
Keep up the good work, my northern friends! I’m trying to divest, go to protests, and be my authentic self, but that’s not enough. If we’re lucky we can fight this war economically without it blowing up into armed conflict.
Organize on the left. I genuinely think that's the only way. Same for us actually. Chances are we're going fascist in a few years if we don't change course.
E: I mean, you're on Blahaj so prolly no need for me to say any of this. 🤗
I feel called out.
Murdoch Mysteries is really good.
The Boys,Gen V, Reacher, the Umbrella Academy, all filmed around Hamilton, Ontario. Star Trek is filmed in Mississauga.
Please allow me to have this mini rant, I'm not attacking op, because it's an informative article.
I just cannot fucking stand it when an article needs to tell me when things are jaw-dropping, stunning, shocking, mind bending. Fuck off with this bullshit, report the facts to me, let me decide how I feel about things. None of this is shocking or jaw dropping or unexpected, to anybody reasonably following affairs.
“Krudler@lemmy.world Slams Headline Writers”
That was a good laugh legit lol
Shocking.
Journalism has gone to complete dog shit. Half of it now is about reactions to a post on X.
I agree. So much is just talking about what's being talked about and who's saying it. I'm old... so I'm not so naive to think it ever wasn't this way. But I definitely noticed a trend starting about 15 years ago... A precipitous drop in investigative journalism, and news cycle workers leaning on content from social media for their content.
I will give a bit more credit to the posted article. At least it presented information and facts. Overall though I didn't feel like it gave the audience much credit. Also felt like they wanted to pad it with dead-horse topics like alcohol/travel news-memes instead of giving a broader overview, or wider scope of areas impacted/advantaged. This article wouldn't have passed 25 years ago, how sad that its among the better I've seen recently... sad face.
