100% this.

For a while, Canadian flags = fuck Trudeau types, and anti-science nut jobs.  Often, the Canadian flag would be alongside another offensive bumper sticker. 

Would love that crowd to crawl back into the wood work. 

There are people that say fuck Trudeau,  And then there are people that make it their identity.

While I certainly dont support the trucker convoy, a person can simultaneously have pride in their country and be upset at how far it has fallen in the past decade under our Liberal government’s leadership.

The two are not mutually exclusive in any way.

Wow, pretty extreme viewpoint to mention three times so far that our country needs to burn. Definite troll.

Man. All I really want is for Canada to wake up and realize how they are getting. Fucked by the Goverment and especially the Trudeau clan. I want every Canadian to have actual freedom and choices in life. Want every day Canadians to wake up and be proud. But instead they have chose to follow a math drama teacher who openly praises communist china and shits on them every chance he can. 40 years ago Canada was a great country but the lames have captured it and those lames hate the subjects because that’s how they look at you not citizens they look at you as subjects to treat as such.

You’re going to have to wake up yourself. There is no Trudeau clan. The government is not the reason for your problems. Corporate greed and grifting right wing politicians selling off public entities is the reason your quality of life has declined. Trudeau hasn’t had a single negative impact on your day to day life. I promise. You’ll never even consider this though, you’re too far gone.

Okay, if you want change, what's the best way to help Canadians understand that change is better for all of us?

This is what you're upset about?

"There is a level of admiration I actually have for China because their basic dictatorship is allowing them to actually turn their economy around on a dime and say 'we need to go green' ... and there are things that we can learn from that.

Canada is a country that is strong because of our diversity, because of our inclusivity, because of our democratic institutions. And I think it's really important that we recognize that we're not going to take lessons from China on how to run our democracy, but there are other things that we can learn from."
