Frankly, I hadn't even considered this aspect of social intimidation, so focused was the narrative and approval for hating Donald Trump.

No, it's more like the disgust people focus on an out-of-control crack house in the neighbourhood.

A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.

But in Canada, even crack heads get the sympathy treatment and taxpayer funded road to recovery.   Free injection sites too for heroin.

There have been several cases of Trump fans (Canadian and American) getting the usual SJW shaming on Canadian campuses.

Now the CBC (Clinton Broadcasting Corporation) is playing the climate change card against Donald Trump, FEARing that a President Trump would nix the USA's involvement with Paris agreements on carbon reduction targets.    Funny that the CBC never mentions the Chretien/Liberal massive Kyoto FAIL and ultimate climate change treaty abrogation by Canada's Harper government.    So why make Trump the bad guy when he would be doing what Canada has already done on climate change....nothing.

I remember the good old days when we used to warn about a Trump one day materializing out of the dysfunction that was materializing 15 years or more ago.

The Trump family fortune started in British Columbia during the Gold Rush....prostitutes and liquor. 

It would be fun to see Trump elected if only to observe how these fits of fear will manifest in Canada.   

Severing diplomatic ties with the U.S. seems a bit dramatic.

Whitehorse Yukon, not BC.

Severing diplomatic ties is idiotic.

Another angle on Canadian FEAR and Trump....expressing "support" for Trump is suppressed in Canada:

 

 

The constant attacks on Trump by the liberal elite fake media in Canada is so evident. They are never in the habit of wanting to talk to anyone who is pro-Trump in Canada. The phony media always have their little talk shows and interviews and always have guests who despise Trump and have nothing good to say about him. Their hatred for Trump always shows. Here in Canada there will never be any conservative talk radio allowed on air because the bias elite phony liberal media and politicians will never give them a licence to do so. Canada is a liberal and socialist country, and only they think that they should have the monopoly on who can speak or who cannot speak on the airwaves.

A 1st Amendment will never get off the ground in Canada if the elite liberals and socialists have their way. What? Allow someone on the airwaves who would dare be allowed to criticize our beliefs and policies? Hell will freeze over before we ever will allow someone who may be allowed to challenge and question our intolerant points of view.

I think you are spot on with this.  Time and time again, contrarian points of view are shouted down or never allowed to be voiced in the first place.   It's almost as if the socialist bubble is much too fragile to withstand opposing viewpoints, and it must be sheltered from attack lest it collapse.  Trump is just the latest example.

The liberal socialist marxist elite establishment are totally afraid of and are very intolerant towards people with opposing views points and opinions to theirs. They can't take the heat but they are to loathe to get out. They would prefer to burn than allow anyone to be able to get away with voicing their opinions that are contrary to theirs. Losers.

Agreed...severing diplomatic ties with the United States because of a President Donald Trump is consistent with such attitudes.   All while Canadian diplomatic ties would remain for other nations with far worse demonstrated "human rights" records.    PM Pierre Trudeau use to play this game with the U.S. too for communist countries.

Again, I don't understand what it materially means for a Canadian or other national to "support" Trump or Clinton unless they can vote in the election (n-citizenships).

Using the CBC as a proxy for Canadian interest, it looks like it will be all hands on deck for CBC News coverage of the U.S. election with multiple media sources in addition to whatever American media Canada usually consumes.

Rather than get caught up in the media hype for this U.S. election cycle, cooler heads have already realized that Canada will have to deal with whomever the American people choose, just like it always has.

Well understand this. Some Canadians (like ,myself) may have families down in US as citizens who can vote and can influence the results,

Okay...good for them.  Do they seek advice and counsel from you across the border each election cycle ? 

Otherwise, Canadian support (or FEARS) are largely irrelevant.

I give them that advice anyway, Besides some Americans especially those living in border areas or visiting Canada may care and influence their votes as what their largest neighbor and biggest trade partner think about their president as latest poll shows a big majority of Canadians don't like Trump will for sure sway a few votes down there.

U.S. biggest trading partner is now China.   Most American voters don't seek advice from other Americans, let alone foreign nationals.   Just a guess, but Canadians probably don't seek such advice from American relatives either for Canadian elections.

Trump lost my support when rumors/revelations about him assaulting women started circulating. Anyone with no respect for women is a piece of trash in my eyes.

I don't think that Trump could careless what you think. Trump is not relying on you for a vote. 

But Hillary's hubby was well known for his fooling around on the job with other women while married to Hillary. And if Hillary becomes President, billy boy will be back in the White House once again, and probably continue on from where he left off. And probably with Hillary's permission. Bonnie and Clyde will be riding high once again, and once again the people will get their just rewards for putting her in the Presidents chair. The sheeple will always lose because that is what they are, just sheeple who will never learn.

Trump is a trash based on his racist sexist speeches and ideas and American people today are going to put him where he belongs that is the trash bag of the history.

I don't think the FEARS of pigs or their eyes are very relevant either.  

There may be a certain amount of frustration when such FEARS are not mitigated with any control over foreign elections or events.

But there really is no point in worrying excessively about things over which one has zero control.
