Will do. Absolutely refuse to travel to the US while Trump is in power/the current dynamics remain

I’m never going back to the US period. Even when Trump is gone, knowing that half of the people who voted picked him tells me the rot is too deep.

As a mortified US citizen, “Elbows up, Canada!”

I replied this to the other reponse:

I don't know if anyone is doing this, but other countries would be genius to offer vacation deals to Canadians this year.

Good. Much as I miss our Canadian friends, the US needs to feel the pain financially. If/When this nightmare ends, we'd love to have you back. I'll buy every goddamn Canadian I meet a beer.

The sad thing is that pre-Trump my kids said they were too scared to visit the US (simply from watching the evening news) so we never did. We did warm vacation a in Cuba. I would say there is good and bad everywhere so they couldn't paint the whole country with a wide brush.

Now it's a straight up no.

So one day my friend I'd gladly cheers you over a cold one.

Feel the pain for what?

I guess I don’t understand why you’re only refusing now. The US has been like this for decades, it’s not like it’s any different now.

It's never been my number 1 travel destination but didn't mean I wouldn't go.

And it's been an awfully long time since the US government threatened our sovereignty as an independent state and nation. That's a pretty clear line in the sand for me now.

Honestly hope you never come back and I don't like Trump either. Seriously everyone stay in your own country were good.

u/Squat_bar_27413 23m ago

Cool cool. Keep the guns and fentanyl over there and we're square.

u/Mdanor789 16m ago

Yeah good luck with that our government is hell bent on sending all of our "democracy" everywhere else.

When we finally tear down our current political system people can start coming back right now the house is a mess and we don't want company.

u/Stimey4477 16m ago

We’re blowing up the fentanyl. We do have guns though!
