For anyone who thinks it doesnāt make a difference, Iāve already gotten back some heart warming emails in solidarity and understanding from the smaller stores. We need to let Americans know how upset we are and why.

Sharing what Iāve been doing as a Canadian. Just emailed all US stores I buy from to tell them why I am unsubscribing & not buying from them (lunatic president). Buying products/groceries from Canada or any other country other than US. Threaten Canada and impose tariffs what has your country become?

I wrote to all the stores in the U.S. that I buy from online to tell them that I will no longer be buying from them because of their president. I went to get my groceries this week & tried my best to buy Canadian or anywhere other than the U.S. Burning bridges of your closest allies. Sad.

I have been rethinking everything I do and buy in this context and so are many of the people I know. My usual travel plans have drastically changed.

āBringing Canada into the United Statesā¦ā. The hubris here of Americans even at the @nytimes.com to use these words to describe invading a sovereign country is incredible. It is why I have a šØš¦ flag on my bag when travelling. It is why Americans have a bad rep. Stop it. I have a paid subscription.

āTransform a nation to a stateā. We are a sovereign nation. You donāt transformā¦. There is no transformation. What are you taking about at PBS. You are capitulating/not understanding what a sovereign nation is. We used to be your ally. Didnāt dignify this article with a click. No point re headline

I'm fucking furious: furious at the quislings and Vichy Canadians who can't see clearly, furious at the fascists and criminals ransacking the US government, furious at the lemmings who follow them blindly. None of this was unavoidable.

I see what you do and I am so sorry about what has been happening over the last two days for all of you.

Here is what Trumpās tariffs mean to me. I will not buy any more U.S. wine/spirits, am buying a car in the next 6 months, wonāt consider an American car, I will check to see which products ARE from US companies, fruits, vegetables, food, nothing from the U.S. You are supposed to be an ally.

The New Republic has kindly published what the LA Times and its RFK Jr-supporting billionaire owner Pat Soon-Shiong tried to suppress: newrepublic.com/article/1910...
