As a Vancouverite plagued by teslas (and the constant irritant of having to see Musk's exploits in our news), please make it 200%. As for cybertrucks just push them straight into the sea.
Well, Donny you screwed up again. Big bully thought he could bully Canada. You met your match. Businesses will close. Fruits vegetables will rot on the vines and trees and meat packing plants will close. Have someone slowly explain tariffs to you and the results of mass deportation.
Way to go Nova Scotia! Don't take any shit from Dumpy Felon Trump. Again, if anyone has a slap in the face meme for this please send it my way. I really need it.
Thank you so much for fighting back. Our own MSM and politicians are too busy cowering to help. Unfortunately our economy will need to suffer before they’ll find their spines
As an American, I’m glad to see Canada fighting back this fascist. Yes, it will be pain here, but when the slim majority voted for this moronic insurrectionist, we deserve it!
There will be far more pain on the northern side of the border. Our tiny population is less than Spain's. With the former trade deal we had about 20% of our GDP resulting from exports to the US. Imagine suddenly running a country with 20% less in the coffers. He's crippling our economy.
And I am profoundly sorry for that. We tried to warn our own citizens of their own demise, but they wouldn't listen! I hope your leaders will find other countries to export to (I understand not easily done), but our country is highjacked by a fascist party that wants to destroy everything.
If things get really bad for us here in the US, this could cause a movement of blue states to secede, possibly join Canada. This would definitely help the Canadians, gaining the GDP of blue states (California, NY, MA, WA, OR, etc). Canada would become the new world power with those states.
Why would blue states remain in the Union when the federal govt under this fascist movement continue to violate the US Constitution every day? If they willfully break their own oaths, then why stay & continue to support a bad faith govt (via our $$$)? The US Constitution would be dead to us.
Yep! I would slap a 50% tariff on all Kentucky bourbon, all Tennessee whiskey, any cigarettes, anything that red states produce... tax the shit out of it!
Good for them! I'd more than double the tolls for American commercial vehicles. And fentanyl entering from Canada is a failure of US customs, whose job it is to seize it coming in. Canadian customs does not inspect vehicles leaving the country.
We just crossed the Bluewater Bridge back into the US a few hours ago, I said I think Canada should increase tolls for US travelers. GOOD FOR THEM!! 🇨🇦💙 #FuckTrump
I feel you, but right now, this isn't my country. That has been stolen and replaced by this...aberration. Everything that helps getting it back, is most welcome.
Yes and no. No, this isn’t my country, but yes, we each allowed the hated MAGA stands for to simmer into a boil. We may not have stood with them, but we let them stand. Once this tyranny is dealt with, we have a lot of soul-searching to do.
I honestly don’t think we thought this was possible. We banked on democracy working the way it always has. We trusted our elected officials. We trusted integrity. We condemned growing fascist rhetoric, but we ignored it as fringe thinking. I firmly believe the election was rigged.
I suspect rigged interference by Musk and OrangeShitler too.
Both have serious commitment to Putin and China.
Russian assets, both.
I'm a blue speck in a sea of red, and I had to jump through two weeks of hoops trying to cast my vote.
Not convinced it was counted.
We were naive, no way around it. Trump should've never been allowed to run for office and when he did, we underestimated MAGAs and how far it would get. Cameron made the exact same mistake on the Brexit Referendum. Somehow both events feel connected. I also think that the election was rigged.
Last trip to NS (2019) included a tour of the Glenora Distillery on Cape Breton…damn fine single malt. Ever since Jan. 20th I’ve had a great desire to return for an extended stay of 4 years.
I love this revenge all the countries are directing at America .. I love that everyone is standing their ground .. please push back on that orange infestation , he is a coward .. don’t let him wear your down 🥂🥂🤞🏼
Brilliant way to stand up to the Bully and make a statement, buy Canadian and Mexican to protest the unprovoked tarriffs the US administration has brought in.
Liquor isn't really a big deal at all considering most of the white trash hillbillies who voted for him know how to make moonshine , nobody actually gives af about that - alcohol is easy to produce
Can’t tell you how much fresh produce comes from Canada that I buy in the grocery store — I know it bc the packaging words are always in English and French: well, let Americans see how expensive their food will become in weeks (ditto for Mexican products in our stores). Trump is a sociopath.
Yep. The jar of honey we just opened is from Canada. We lived just over the border from Canada and the amount of food processing that happened in Surrey BC is mind bending. The I5 corridor between the US and Canada trucking is one of the busiest routes and this doesnt include the coal trains.
Great! I knew you‘re taking action. Europe is still waiting like the rabbit in front of the snake. Hope, the lame ducks will awake quite soon. #fcktrump #fckmusk #fcktesla
But didn't the liquor stores already pay for that alcohol? So why wouldn't they sell it to recoup their investment and then just not order any more liquor from the US? This sounds like the people who burned the shoes they already paid for and dumping beer they'd already paid for. lol
I work at a BC Liquor Store...our province is responding similarly. I haven't seen such a "fuck them...smash it" sentiment since Russia invaded Ukraine. (And no one misses those products one bit.)
If Canada has anything, it's thriving booze production, lol. Time for more inter-provincial trade. 😃
Bonjour our beautiful Québécois! We're up to the challenge & it'll all work out somehow. Warmth from rainforesty Vancouver (though suddenly it's snowing today? What is that weird white stuff!). Haha
Definitely come at some point! It's so beautiful!
I'd have moved to live in your culturally incredible Montreal years ago if not for being a total wuss when it comes to cold. That's true! ❤️
Exactly, you must shun the Maple MAGAs, or the most ignorant in your country will dictate its leader. We just tried to ignore them down here, but the misinformation was too strong for the weak minded and now we have Trump. It will be our demise.
BC is going slightly lighter-handed on the alcohol, but MUCH sassier because we're only dropping suppliers from the red states, meaning the ones that voted in Trump. 😅
Our friends in California are still our pals and we'll carry those. Anyways, laughing through the gritted teeth. 🇨🇦
Way to go Nova Scotia!
This orange turd needs to know that he is NOT going to intimidate any part of Canada.
I'm embarrassed to be a US citizen right now...so sorry 😞
I feel the exact same but I hope they all hit us hard!!! That’s exactly what he, his team & followers deserve!! Sad we have to be here too but if this is what it takes I’m all for it!
Does anyone remember how very kind the Nova Scotians were to Americans when flights had to be rerouted on 9/11? DJT doesn't know how to be a friend and has no real friends.
Canada look at the States that keep electing cowardly GOP senators that have enabled Trump all these years. Like Susan Collins. That State just keeps electing her and she has shown to be a coward time and time again.
As an American, I am cheering on the Canadians. Nova Scotia is right...hit back hard. Canada supplies electricity down the eastern seaboard to Virginia. Would be a shame to raise those rates 25%. Just saying.
As a child of a Scottish Canadian immigrant from Nova Scotia, I can tell you there are a lot of tough, no nonsense Scotsmen up there who aint putting up with trumps bullshit. Thank you, ancestors! 👍
Please know that Trump usurped the office of President of the U.S. by cheating. His occupation of that office is illegitimate. Please do not recognize the illegal Trump junta.
Do you think they’ll have a Reno 911 moment and have a bonfire of the illegal goods? Dangle&crew they did it w pot fireworks the jet ski. That would be a viral moment. Put it out everywhere. Red state maga pain.
UK... France... the entire EU... Philippines... Japan... South Korea... everyone tariff us. We will understand if you'll take us back when the nightmare is over.
That is awesome! Premier of Ontario has said the same thing here - take the US booze off the shelves and don’t order more. Ontario is a lot bigger, and has centrally controlled alcohol distribution, so this will hurt US producers. And we get booze from all around the world; won’t hurt me!
Ok! So perhaps these businesses that sell to them & commercial vehicles having to drive across the bridge will finally see what Trump has done!
His favorably ratings are going to plummet!
Maybe then the GOP will want to break from him 🤞🏽
We prefer our politicians to be boring & responsible, to grab their jackets and just get to work. We don't see politicians as glossy celebrity entertainers because our media just doesn't hype them that way. No offence but the US has created a whole carnival situation around politics. -not needed.
Every post like this I see gives me more hope for a better future.
My co-worker is very sure the united states is untouchable "the world has needed us too long to turn their back, Canada needs our trade more than we need theirs"
It's time to learn the hard way.
Unfortunately, I know too many people who believe this. You could slap them in the face with proof that something it better, but they'd still dismiss it if it means America is less than perfect.
Alas, I am stuck here to suffer with them, so just have to make the most of it.
Please, since our own legislators can’t find it in their interest to put a stop to this idiotic president pettyman(trump) I’m fully accepting the consequences if the entire rest of the sane world could push back hard enough that businesses might.

The rest of the world is painfully aware of American politics and we have a lot of sympathy for half of you; it's awful.
No one will be shifting borders; all well. This will blow over at some stage. Hopefully in 2 years he won't be able to sign any more bills. 🤞
Not gonna lie, rooting against my country feels weird

Do something about that felon running your country! We can only do so much.
Premier ordered all American alcohol removed from the shelves
If you turn off our heat in February, we can get rid of Senator Susan Collins in a week. Please.
Canadians love our booze.
Byeeee!

Instagram is owned by meta - the whore Zuckerberg needs to be refunded.
Boycott X, Facebook, Instagram etc.
It is the billionaires that are behind this. (trump doesn't have the cognitive ability)
Defund the billionaires.
Zuckerberg needs to be defunded.
Mexico knows the difference between MAGA and America.

I know a lot of my fellow Québécois feel the same!
Oh Canada 🇨🇦❤️

It is very sad it's come to this, but I'm ready to support all who oppose him!
The LCBO is one of the largest purchasers of alcohol in the world.
If every province does this, it is going to hurt.
And this is only the start.
His favorably ratings are going to plummet!
