I find it so odd the U.S. thought the nicest people on the planet were simply going to lie down and get steamrolled by a snake oil rapist felon into submission.
As a Canadian, I’m now running low on sorries, and that’s scary.
I think what people don't understand is how incredibly petty Canadians can be.
The Canadian population will accept things getting 25% worse for themselves personally if it means things get 5% worse for the people that inflicted it. With these terriffs, there is an asymmetry of effect... But there is also an asymmetry in the amount of pain that can be stomached by the populations as well.
If the two countries find themselves dragged into an "economic winter", there is one population significantly more familiar and comfortable with the idea of riding out the winter.

Beware the wrath of a gentle man.
The meek are not to be fucked with.
Mate, I fucking love this quote! Thanks for sharing this. Cheers.
I'm not sure that's the best description.
We're easy-going, until someone breaks a rule or an agreement, or is impolite. Then we get bitchy. Sometimes we reno state buildings in a drunken pub crawl.
I only apologize to allies. I have a bountiful field of "fuck off"s to give to fascists, though.
I ran out a long time ago. Fuck around and find out!
