Who wouldnt want to vacation here? It sounds harsh but for years my Canadian friends have ignored all of this to be warm and cozy in the winter months. Basically wintering in a prison camp was better than the cold long winter up north. I tried to have conversations about this but their eyes were closed to all of this. Until
tariffs. Bang and boom, that hit home. And even with that they were angry with the ignorant Americans that let this happen. Im glad they are heading home. Its not safe here and it hasnt been for years. I feel great sadness that our world has come to this. Im sad that Canadians have been a pawn in our debacle. But I am also sad that it took all of this for them to see that there is real trouble here. The Patriot Act should have been a game changer. Tears and a broken heart for all that has been lost.
