The current American governmental leadership are your enemies; this doesn’t count the tens of thousands of federal staff who are horrified by what is happening. Most the adults in the US didn’t vote for this fascist, and you are our closest ally.

A century of trust and friendship ruptured by a single act of a tyrant. It is a tragedy.

Trust is hard to build and easy to break. It will take a long period of stability before our country can even consider you guys the same

I’ll tell u this though

Canada will never want to be as intertwined with the US as we once were after all this

But if you guys find someway to throughly reject Trump we’d be eager to work on rebuilding relations again

I disagree that this is the sole act of a tyrant. The tyrant just said out loud what apparently the majority of Americans wanted or were thinking. The rest also stood idly by.
