While Canadians are using “elbows up” diplomacy with the white house, they are welcoming U.S. tourists with open arms.

    I’ve definitely thought about it, but am currently far too embarrassed to be a US tourist, especially in Canada. I really should, though, I’d much rather give Canada my money than the US.

        Don’t worry, I have that too. My feelings lately have been a mix of shame, embarrassment, and depression. Oh, and rage, how could I forget.

      If you do, just be vocal with

      Canadians know it’s not necessarily the citizens, but the one in control. Don’t wear any flag clothes, be polite and nobody will care much less notice.

      Don’t be. As long as you aren’t wearing MAGA or Trump gear, we’ll assume you’re one of the good ones.

      Besides, MAGA are probably too scared to come to woke Canada.
