American here. I had a passing thought while reading tariff war news and wanted to inquire. I seem to remember some stories about how there’s some percentage of Canadians that are as crazy pilled as our MAGAs, flying confederate flags and such, and I was wondering, what are they up to these days? How are they taking things post Trump election and present tariff fighting? Are they also booing the american anthem at hockey games? Or are they buying Kentucky whiskey in solidarity? I find the idea of those guys so fascinating, but I have so little news sources for them. Anyone have any insight into what the chatter is like in those communities lately?

    We have them pretty much everywhere, but the greatest concentration are in Alberta and probably Saskatchewan. They are pretty emboldened atm as you would imagine. They did a convoy in our capital. But they relied on US maga funds to make it happen. So, as yours run the US economically into the ground, they’ll be losing their backer.

      Yup, they just parrot US talking points and don’t actually have their own support and funding here. As soon as fascist party is gone down south they will dissolve as well. It’s also the dumbest people you’ve ever had to interact with…

      It’s a Russian psy-op, Trump even confirmed with this russia, Russia, Russia and me and Putin had to go through the Russia hoax together comments.
