Why is no one surprised? Only the best for Trump's hand picked pedophile police.

Calling it third world is just lazy and stupid. I won’t stand for it.

Well, good thing I called it a "2nd world shithole" then.

See. It's fucking genius.

No wonder he's the king.

ICE is a huge risk for a traveller. They're running as a lawless gang. No accountability.

I want my vacation to be fun but there is a non-zero chance of getting nabbed by ICE in the US. Combine that with the US policy of any idiot can and should own a gun.

The US is a crazy 2nd world shithole and doesn't offer anything worth the risks.

It probably doesn’t help that the Canadian dollar is quite weak in the US.

I don't buy this argument.

One year ago the USD was at $1.39. Today it's $1.40.

In 2025 USD peaked at $1.47 in Jan but then dropped to $1.38 by April. The lowest it was for 2025 was in the summer months - as low as $1.35.

If you look at the 2024 season the USD sat around $1.36-1.38 for most of the summer with a dip in Aug to $1.34.

2024 and 2025 really weren't THAT much different during the tourist months.

I don't honestly think a couple of cents is going to make a difference to Snow Birds and vacationers. What does make a difference is a fascist fat fuck saying he's going to turn your homeland into part of the USA and ICE thugs nabbing random people off the street. I'm not going anywhere near that shit even if the USD was sitting at $.50

Our vacation this year could have easily included a jump to the US for a couple days. If we took this trip in 2024 we would have.

“I want instead of going to the insurance companies, I want the money to go into an account for people, where the people buy their own health insurance. It’s so good. The insurance will be better. It’ll cost less. Everybody’s gonna be happy. They’re gonna feel like entrepreneurs,” Trump said during a Fox News interview Monday night. “They’re actually gonna be able to go out and negotiate their own health insurance. And they can use it only for that reason, that’s the beauty—only for that purpose.

So his idea for healthcare is.... you use money to buy health insurance on the public market?

He's a fucking genius!

I have to apologize for all the things I've said about Trump over the year. America, you are in good hands.

To be honest, I don't know anyone who drinks that boomer juice on a regular basis.

Someone needs to pick up grampa. He shit his pants again and is heading towards the playground.

I'm ok with AI country because it's a trash trite genre anyway.
