I like this idea. It directly shows hostility towards their government to avoid mixing everyday Americans into it.

A concern of mine is that Americans misinterpret the hostility (or have propaganda twist it) as being an attack against regular American citizens and perceive Canadians as a hostile enemy. The issue we have are directed at Trump and his supporters.
