And threatening Canada's sovereignty is worse than pulling US alcohol or tariffs. So choke on my hairy Canadian ballsack Lawson, you filthy fascist cunt.
You know the greatest part of this seeing a Canadian get angry, I don't think I've ever seen that before.
Historically speaking, when the Canadians get angry, the Geneva Convention list gets amended.
And/Or the White House and Washington DC get burned to the ground, Maine gets entirely occupied...
I always find it funny that Americans just forget how fucking badly the war of 1812 went for us.
Our goddamned national anthem is about one of the few non complete clusterfuck losses in that war, its about the British fleet realizing burning Baltimore to the ground would be a bit too difficult and withdrawing... whereas basically every other military action in the war of 1812 was a disorganized rout for Americans.
Cry us a river.
You have a problem? Blame Trump.
Correct me if I'm wrong Canadians, but I'm assuming there wasn't a national mandate to pull American products off the shelves. This was a decision that individual businesses or companies chose to do, to not support our dumbasses over here in the states. You know, like every business chooses what to put on their shelves.
So in other words, shut the fuck up JD.
Liquor in Ontario is sold and controlled by the LCBO, and were directed to remove all American products from the shelves by our Premier (governer sorta)
Same with BC and NS. So not a Federal/National mandate, but a political one indeed.
Maybe Jack Daniel’s shouldn’t have supported republicans. Looks like they had supported more democrats but also republicans. Everyone knew this shit was going to happen. Sucks to be them.
Then he should complain to Drumpf that his tariffs are hurting his business and actively Making America Terrible Again.
