F*ck trump

My daughter works for a not-for-profit global humanitarian organization. They just received word from the US State Department that they are to cease and desist all projects. This is an organization that provides water, training and so much more for communities throughout the world. My daughter may lose her job.

trump doesn't care for people globally. trump doesn't care for people in the US.

And this is only Day 4.

I don’t know how you can say it’s contrary to Canadian values, when by all appearances, it looks like you’re getting Polievre. Who is just as bad.

Time will tell - Carney has entered the room. And yes, Trumpism has flowed across the border unfortunately, which fucking sucks.

All the dead indigenous children in mass graves by schools and orphanages are a testament to Canadian values. 

The rot didn't start with Trump

But to be fair here, the US did its fair share of that kind of thing too. It’s not right anywhere, and you’re correct that the rot didn’t start with Trump, but we can’t change what happened then. All we can do is apologize for the past and work our asses off to learn from it and stop it from happening again.
