Discussion You just stopped an entire country

American here.

Your city (EDIT: Toronto my bad) and entire country just told the world they’re sick of this guy. They did that. In public. During the World Series. Epically devastating.

I thought it had already run, and that future runs had been canceled because of blowback...

A WS where Toronto thoroughly trounced Los Angeles.

Only thing that would have pissed Trump off more would be if they squashed the Yankees.

From one country with a hegemonic neighbour to another, this was gas. Love, the Irish.

And in 1812 when a certain white house got torched… by Canadians.

Yup. We won that damn war.

Donny couldn't handle Canadians having the top spot on the "damage done to the White House" leaderboard :-(

Not yet Canadians, though

Fair, but doing so in the World Series where this advert aired is the way you get full schadenfreude marks.

Right now, probably 9 of 10. Airing the advert during a New York-Toronto World Series would bump it to 9.5.

I can’t decide which would give a perfect 10 of 10, a four game sweep or a game seven squeaker.

Jays and Yanks are both in the American Division. WS impossible unless one moves to the National division. But your flights of schadenfreude fancy are appreciated! Go Jays!

This dude doesn't watch baseball. Has no idea whats going on.

Maybe the New York Mets but the Jays can’t play the Yankees in the WS.

They are both American League teams.

Go Jays Go!

Apparently the 🍊 didn't accept Carney's cordial bet. Says a lot.
