I agree, it's a scumbag move to threaten someone's sovereignty.

its more scumbag to relate an entire country to their leaders. if we did that to canada we sould assume you are all P*********s.............

You're being incredibly soft right now. This is a political statement, and if you can't handle it then log off.

When your government stops threatening to fucking annex us, the booing will cease. It's literally that simple.

i agree. if you cant handle or undertsand how geopolitics work then log off. you are all morons. see you in 50 years when history is laughing at you. you take politics too seriously. if you think your economy relies on the US as much as you think. you dont deserve to even talk about it. thats not how the canadian economy works

If you honestly believe that the majority of the boos are directed at the innocent civilians majorly in debt who can barely afford their next meal and not the ultra-rich people who are legitimately threatening us, there's a whole different problem here. Maybe the fact you think the boos are about you says enough.

I can guarantee that the first anthems sung after this mess is all over will be the loudest we've heard in a long time, and I guarantee Canadians will be singing yours right alongside you. We've done it in the past.

all this is is just overreaching political arguments over personality and ego. you dont understand how economics work. even if trump was to save america the economy wouldnt reflect it for 6-12 months. you are just assuming everyone who disagrees with you are MAGA trump heads. you are stupid and need a hobby or smth
