Is this true, Canadians?

[Nevilledog]

[soothsayer]

1. Canadians usually scold us for calling ourselves America

...when we’re only part of North America

[Fozzledick]

4. I used to hear it expressed as "You Yanks think you own the whole damn continent!"

[Rebl2]

17. Well I

must say we act like it a good part of the time

[LakeArenal]

16. Same in Costa Rica.

[spooky3]

19. Both Costa Rica and Canada are right. ntt

[pandr32]

2. It's true

I was born in Canada and still have family and friends there.

[Nevilledog]

3. Guess it's only fair.

It does feel like we're living in a meth lab.

[3catwoman3]

10. It damn well does.

Or a bad acid trip, or something (none of which I have ever personally experienced).

[Cha]

20. Cool, pandr.. I love Canada and can imagine how they

feel.

Hopefully that will blow up when election 2020 comes around.

Aloha!

[pandr32]

23. Aloha Cha

[Dem2theMax]

5. I love Canada.

Can you take me in for the next few months?
Or, heaven forbid, the next four years, possibly the rest of my life? Pretty please?

[triron]

6. Kind of wished I was born there. I love nordic skiing.

[Dem2theMax]

7. Right now, I'm feeling the same way.

I stupidly didn't take up my one chance to try Nordic skiing. I really wish I had done so. It probably would have kept me living in the mountains, where I really belong.

[SammyWinstonJack]

14. Me too! Pretty please.

[Bev54]

8. Only for the past 3 1/2 years!

[Bernardo de La Paz]

9. Yup, these days. Also it is said of economies, America catches a cold Canada gets pneumonia.

And that USA is like an elephant sleeping beside the mouse.

But the economies analogy is only applicable to that, and, seemingly not the last two times, and not to the pandemic. Canada weathered the Great Recession of 2008-9 better than the US, with less public debt. And economically, Canada is doing reasonably well this time around so-far.

As to the meth lab, yeah tRump is breaking bad and has been broken and breaking bad all his life.

Re pandemic, see chart below. Yeah it feels like we had a bit of a bender for two months but rehab is working.
However, the US is like a whole apartment block full of meth heads and a huge dirt cheap batch landed in the courtyard last month.

[StarryNite]

11. We're cooking on high and getting ready to blow!

I don't blame you for feeling that way about us. I feel that way about us too.

[plimsoll]

12. It's more like showing up for college in quad room to discover your 3 other roommates.

The quite guy who is there on a scholarship and works his ass off.
The relatively normal guy who is there to go to college.
Yourself who is there to go to college.
And the guy who came in drunk isn't interested in learning but wants to party all the time.
And keeps puking in your laundry basket.

[japple]

13. At least he didn't say "one of those shithole countries."

I feel like a citizen of a shithole country right now. We are the lowest of the low because of tRUMP. It will take us a long, long time to get back up to a place where we can even hold up our heads on the world stage.

[dawn5651]

15. nah i don't think so.....although i wish you could convince the orange asshole to resign

[canetoad]

18. Genuine and heartfelt

Belly laugh.

[donkeypoofed]

21. These days it feels very true !! Sorry.

22. R.I.P. Robin Williams

That's where I first heard that.
