Most Americans don’t think about Canada but let’s pretend. “Hey Canadian, why are you so passionate about Trump being kicked out as president?” Here’s my list. 1) During our trade dispute he said Canada threatened U.S. national security. 2) He rolled back Obama era laws protecting LGBTQ+ people. My half American son is that. 3) He empowers white supremacists who threaten people of colour, refugees, and ethnic groups, 4) He’s a lying misogynist and adulterer. 5) Trump botched the response to COVID-19 putting our world’s health at risk. Like many of you I am looking forward to a time when news from south of the Canada/U.S. border is less nerve wracking.
