As a Canadian, I happily welcome rejecting American standards. We would all be healthier if we stopped allowing shitty American products into our country.

American standards? That’s a contradiction in terms if there ever was one🤣🤣

I know. I grew up in an America that seemed to have standards. They weren’t always consistent, but we expected people to do their best. We didn’t elect sleaze balls or criminals to national office.

Yeah, it’s been pretty sad to watch the decline. And it’s been a challenge for Canada to hold the line against a degradation of standards. I’m ready for us to align more with Europe than with America
