Hating America helps to define the Canadian identity....which starts with NOT being American. Many Canadians still support the U.S. with their feet and wallets. But we need to save their feelings! They're worried about their own long term mental health of hating us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The disdain and outright hatred stems partly from the dichotomy of opposing U.S. foreign and domestic policies while being utterly dependent on the U.S. economy. Trump vs. Trudeau is just the latest version of the "elephant vs. mouse" relationship...the mouse has been vocally anti-elephant many times before....and the elephant usually just ignores the mouse's screaming. When the elephant shouts back...it shocks the mouse...BOYCOTT !! Canadians attacked Trump viciously and continuously even before he became president...as if it mattered.

If you want some lessons in illiteracy read trump’s tweets. Between retweeting neo Nazis and white nationalists his grammar and spelling is a terrific example.

I visited the Menin gate in Ypres Beligium a few years ago, it’s a WW1 memorial, beautiful place. They conduct a last post ceremony every night 365 days a year since they built that memorial in 1927. Attached to the memorial is an outdoor human rights museum. Several displays with human rights atrocities documented. There is of course an Abu graighb Display along with testimony of people tortured . Hundreds of thousands of people from all over the world visit the menin gate every year. It was easy to spot the Americans, when they got to the display they quickly hung their heads , stared at their shoes and quickly shuffled by in shame..

A common way for this fallacy to be perpetuated is one shared trait between two subjects is assumed to show equivalence, especially in order of magnitude, when equivalence is not necessarily the logical result.[2] False equivalence is a common result when an anecdotal similarity is pointed out as equal, but the claim of equivalence doesn't bear because the similarity is based on oversimplification or ignorance of additional factors.

Zeitgeist Posted June 17, 2018 Report Share Posted June 17, 2018 (edited) How should countries respond to U.S. tariffs? 1. Boycott all 100 percent U.S. made goods. 2. Lean on multi-literalism: Trump is playing the Machiavellian game of divide and conquer. By seeking bilateral agreements, he is setting U.S. trading partners against each other. Don't give into the temptation to do this for the sake of a trade agreement with the U.S.. Canada, Mexico, the E.U. and other impacted countries should support each other and enhance free trade with each other. 3. Do NOT remove or reduce any of the counter-tariffs against the U.S. until the U.S. removes its 2018 tariffs. Again, all non-U.S. trading partners must have absolute unity in the application of this measure. Edited June 17, 2018 by Zeitgeist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
