What I like about pointing this out to people like that, is that their response is "yeah, but what goes on in the USA affects Canada!" (seen it on these boards).

True, but does that mean you should not care about what goes on in Canada, that is generated in Canada?

I guarantee that the Liberals could announce at 9AM one day, that external travel was being restricted, taxes were doubling, future elections were being suspended, and that all foreign exchange trading was being halted, and if at the same time Trump tweeted something about how Bill Maher should be "locked up" because he makes fun of Trump, or that he wants to "have a good time" (you know what I mean) with Megyn Kelly, more people on these boards would be posting about that...
