Open Letter from Canadian to Maga and Maple Leaf Maga

[Bev54]

This is an open letter from Jim Elliot who is a news reporter, I think he is in the Yukon:

Dear 77,301,997 Trump-Loving, Conspiracy-Huffing, Rage-Addicted Americans (And the Canadian Dumbfucks Who Worship Them)
Oh, hey there. Sit down. Read this. Try not to cry.

Listen, I get it. You think we’re just a bunch of polite, snow-loving, maple syrup-chugging pushovers up here in Canada. You’ve been misled. We’re polite, sure. But only until we get pissed off. And you, dear MAGA cultists, are testing our fucking patience.

Let’s clear up a few things about who we actually are, because you seem to be confused. We’re a country that gives a shit about our elders, our kids, and our most vulnerable. We actually value education instead of treating it like some left-wing brainwashing experiment. We don’t get all horny over billionaires hoarding wealth while our neighbours die in poverty. We don’t fantasize about returning to the 1940s, and we sure as hell don’t think the most corrupt sack of shit on the planet was personally chosen by God.

Who does that? Oh right—you.

But let’s go deeper.
We’ve Always Been Your Best Fucking Neighbour—So What the Hell Happened?
Time and time again, Canada has been there when the U.S. needed us.

World War I? We were in the trenches before you even showed up. World War II? We were storming the beaches of Normandy while you were still debating whether or not to help. Korea, Afghanistan, peacekeeping missions—you name it, we’ve had your back. We sent our firefighters to help when California burned. When Katrina wiped out New Orleans, we were there. And on 9/11? We fucking welcomed thousands of stranded Americans into our homes, because that’s what decent people do.

And what did we ask for in return? Nothing. We didn’t demand grovelling gratitude or threaten to “never help again” if you didn’t kiss our ass. That’s your toxic, transactional bullshit—not ours.

Enter Your Mango-Coloured Messiah: A Convicted Criminal With a Cult

So after all that, what do we get? Your country elects a spray-tanned sociopath with a vocabulary of a Grade 3 dropout, and suddenly we’re the bad guys? You’ve got a convicted fraudster leading your country—a man who insults war heroes, mocks the disabled, and jerks off to the thought of authoritarian rule—and we’re the problem? You’ve got a party foaming at the mouth to gut democracy, roll back civil rights, and turn the U.S. into a theocratic shithole, but we’re the ones who should shut up?
Nah. Fuck that.

And to the Canadian Trump Bootlickers—Sit the Fuck Down
I can already hear the Canadian MAGA muppets shrieking, “Mind your own broken country!” Oh, sweetheart. If Canada were actually broken, it would be because of dumbass conservatives like you who take marching orders from a foreign conman.

Is Canada perfect? Of course not. But unlike you bootlicking clowns, we don’t rally behind leaders who openly admire fascists and flirt with the idea of rounding up immigrants. We don’t foam at the mouth over the idea of a “war on woke” while pretending climate change isn’t real. And we certainly don’t suck off billionaires while pretending trickle-down economics isn’t a scam.

You morons scream about freedom, but what you really mean is the freedom to be an ignorant, unvaccinated, gun-hoarding dipshit. The moment someone else—be it a woman, an immigrant, or a person of colour—wants the same freedom you enjoy? Oh no, suddenly that’s tyranny. Fuck off with that hypocrisy.

Canada Isn’t Broken—You Just Can’t Handle Reality

What do we actually have in Canada? Universal health care. Sensible gun laws. A social safety net that, while imperfect, at least tries to keep people from starving in the streets.

Meanwhile, in your MAGA utopia, you can literally go bankrupt because you got cancer. You send kids to school in bulletproof backpacks because you refuse to do anything about mass shootings. You’re so brainwashed by billionaires that you think raising the minimum wage is worse than cutting taxes for a corporation that made $100 billion last quarter.

And you have the fucking gall to call us broken?

Mind My Own Business? I Fucking Wish

Oh, I’d love to. Really, I would. But here’s the problem—when you share a border with a country of over 300 million people, and that country elects a conspiracy-loving, anti-science lunatic to power, it becomes my business.
When your president guts economic, military, and trade alliances that help keep the world stable? That’s my business. When your leader openly muses about invading sovereign countries—including ours? That’s definitely my business.
And when a bunch of dumbfuck Canadians start acting like America’s the blueprint for success, despite all evidence to the contrary? That’s all of our business.

We’re Watching, and We’re Not Impressed

So, dear Trump cultists, both American and Canadian: we’re onto you. We see your bullshit, your hypocrisy, your complete detachment from reality. And we’re not buying a single second of it.

We’re your neighbours, your allies, your friends—but we’re not your doormats. We’re polite, but we’re not fucking stupid. And right now? We’re watching. Closely.

Warmest regards,
A Canadian Who’s Had Enough of Your Bullshit

1. How long will they continue to realize that well more than half of us are horrified too?

[Bev54]

5. It gets harder and harder as your politicians in both parties capitulate to the orange asshole.

We do understand that most people are supportive of the way Canada, Greenland and Panama are being treated but it doesn't help us out of this bind when the democrats are falling as fast as republicans. It is really discouraging for the world to watch, mostly to those progressives in your own country. I truly hope the idiot conservatives do not win our election or we may be joining you.

[DENVERPOPS]

21. In all reality

Trump doesn't want Canada, Greenland, Iceland for the 51st state.........PUTIN WANTS IT for a North Shipping Passage and all the minerals and oil under the ocean floor which will be assessable in the future due to the melting ice from Global Warming....
AND PUTIN has ordered Trump to get it for him.....

And, they want to use Hitler's means of taking the U.S. not back to just the 40's, but it is blatantly apparent they want to return to the GILDED AGE and days of the ROBBER BARRONS...........NO RULES, NO LAWS, NO REGULATIONS, free to rape, pillage and plunder everything in their way.......

[Hope22]

14. This one is addressed to MAGA and Maple Leaf MAGA

At least he defined it as 77 million. I’m usually very sensitive about these kind of call outs but I feel like this is at least selective. I blocked many of my Canadian friends because of this type of thing. They wrote as though they can’t see that some of us have been trying and are sick over what is going down!! I have one Canadian friend left and he is sick over all of this but he understands that it is beyond my powers. This has been an added stress. The ludicrousness of Canada as a state is simply absurd! It is a delusion of madness.

[hlthe2b]

31. That was my question. Clearly most Canadians are not holding the actions of Trump and his MAG ilk

against the rest of us, but how long can that benefit-of-the-doubt last?

[Dennis Donovan]

2. Recommended!

[dutch777]

3. Well written, well said. Many of us will still consider you friends as you start a well deserved US goods boycott.

And let us all hope, this too shall pass. We are joined at the hip after all.

[Grins]

91. OK - but WHO wrote it?

There is no link to its source or the writers identity.

We have all gotten these types of email/messages, most of them bunkum. So who …?

[SheltieLover]

4. Very well stated!

Gawd, slobby is such an embarrassment.

[DENVERPOPS]

23. Agreed, BRAVO NC

[SheltieLover]

26. I couldn't agree more!

I think slobby wants to copy his boss' behavior & invade a neighboring country.

[Deuxcents]

6. 👏👏

[BoRaGard]

7. Well ranted

[Skittles]

8. THANK YOU CANADA

for acknowledging many of us here are on your side

[Aviation Pro]

9. Canadians are polite until

It’s time not to be polite.

Just ask the Germans what the Canucks did in WWI.

It’s not a war crime the first time.

[pandr32]

10. 100% this!

Elbows up!

[Bev54]

13. Yes, thanks Elbows Up!

24. That's what I thought also - a fine way with words (perhaps a tad more polite...)

"Enter Your Mango-Coloured Messiah: A Convicted Criminal With a Cult"

Perfect.

[ReRe]

17. K&R

Well, alrighty then, Bev54. Thank you for sharing this stunning take down by Jim Elliot!

[Bev54]

18. LOL, I used to get teased for saying "alrighty then".

[ReRe]

19. You remember where it came from then?

[Bev54]

34. Nope just became part of my vocabulary

[Cha]

58. It came from a Canadian, Jim Carrey in

Ace Ventura Pet Detective.

[Bev54]

59. I was using far before then, I think it is just a Canadian thing.

[Cha]

61. Oh wow.. that's interesting... TY! It's where I learned to

say it.

[ReRe]

79. If my memory serves me correctly

(and sometimes it does not now a days) it's a Jim Carey line from one of his movies, Ace Ventura I think.

[Bev54]

80. Yeah, I have been saying this for longer than that

I think it is a Canadian thing. People used to say it was a Banker’s expression ( I was a banker) so who really knows

[ReRe]

82. Well, you are probably correct then

since Jim Carey is from Canada! Thank you for teaching me something I did not know! In moments like this, I think of my grandmother. When sis I were little in grade school, we returned to her house in the afternoons and she would ask us if we learned anything that day. We'd always look at her and say "No". Then she would say that we should always learn something every day of our lives.

[tanyev]

20. Wowzers, that is a righteous rant!

[Magoo48]

22. This one old man says, "Sorry Canada."

Please, don’t mind the 10s of millions of us just sitting on our asses watching the Orange-cult bullies rip into you as they continue to demolish our country before our own eyes. Maybe if we ask them nicely, they will stop being mean to us.

[JMCKUSICK]

25. Bravo, Bravo, Encore

Give this guy a curtain call, a medal, a Nobel Economics prize for having a firm grasp of the obvious while we have to try and convince our fucking neighbors that their the ones getting screwed because they mean as much to MUMP as I do. And I don't mean shit to them.

28. The Geneva Convention & Canadian troops in WW1

Title-The forgotten ruthlessness of Canada’s Great War soldiers

https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/the-forgotten-ferocity-of-canadas-soldiers-in-the-great-war

Second citation--Canadian War Crimes in WW1: How German Soldiers Were Exploited by Canadian Troops


snip-Perhaps one of the most shocking instances of Canadian cruelty was when they were socializing with German soldiers. They would throw cans of corned beef across the trenches, and when the enemy troops yelled for more, the Canucks responded by throwing an armload of grenades at them instead.

There are other instances of Canadians being brutally excessive in their actions toward the enemy. On Christmas 1915, Canadian soldiers were fighting against the Germans when a temporary peace broke out, causing the fighting to cease. The Germans called over to wish them a Merry Christmas. Both sides put their heads above the trenches, but one of the Canadian sergeants, acting on orders not to speak with the enemy, shot two enemy soldiers."



Trench raids, same source


"The Canadians quickly became experts, refining their techniques and creating their own weapons for use during the raids. Typical weapons were often not as effective, so items like clubs, knives and brass knuckles were used, as they allowed the raiders to stay silent, unlike mechanized tools.

29. KNR plus a gazillion!

30. Do you have a link for this so that it can more easily be shared?

[Bev54]

35. No I got it in my FB page

I am not sure which Canadian group it came from

[niyad]

43. I see. I am not on fb.

[chowder66]

37. I don't have a link but it's from his facebook account.

From Canadian Jim Elliott on Facebook

I don't use facebook.

[SergeStorms]

32. Amen!

I'm too ashamed to travel to Canada anymore. I live a little over an hour from the border, and Toronto is less than three hours away. I love Toronto and all Canadians. I used to go 3-4 times each year. Since January 21st I may never visit again. Even though I'm a Democrat and had nothing to do with that Potemkin president in Washington (when he's even there), I'm too ashamed of our country and the people in it to cross the border anymore.

If I were young I'd emigrate to Canada in a heartbeat. They have little need for a 75 yr. old man, though.

[Bev54]

36. You have nothing to fear from us

But you should fear your own border guards when you go back

[SergeStorms]

42. Yeah, I know.

95% of Canadians are wonderful people, but there is a creeping MAGA-type virus that's crept across the border and is infecting some of your citizens.
Maybe if I wear a sign around my neck, "Yes, I'm from the U.S. No, I didn't vote for the Orange Ape." Would that help? 😉

[Bev54]

48. Just wear an elbows up shirt

[SergeStorms]

55. Good one.

Thanks for that!

[LA Blue Bengal]

33. Righteous rant

and spot on. Tiny correction about World War II. The US joined the European Theatre in 1942 and were on Omaha and Utah Beaches on D-Day. But the Germans were most afraid of the Canadian soldiers.

[Bev54]

41. Canada was in the war from the start of WWII

That is the point

[Bengus81]

68. Yep..They ordered a shit load of twin engine aircraft from Cessna in the fall of 1939

They were all trainers to transition to larger aircraft and were called Cranes. I think at one time in 1940 into 41 they had another 500 on order from a single order.

[mgardener]

40. He forgot about

"Grab 'em by the pussy" and sex abuser.

Otherwise, it is perfect

[Pepsidog]

46. Is there any where we every day Americans can go online and show our support for Canada? I hope they know there are

millions of Americans who despise the Traitor.

[Bev54]

49. We have a few online groups for shop Canadian

People from all over the world are on it supporting us. I am being Canadian today and am at a hockey game and then going straight to another but will get a link for you when I get home

[Bev54]

65. Here are a couple of FB accounts that we get a fair amount of Americans on as well.

Made In Canada-Canadian Products

[Uncle Joe]

47. Well said!

Thanks for the thread Bev.

[Vinca]

50. I love this guy! Can we get him to write a script for Democrats?

[DFW]

51. My best Canadian friend used to be their Ambassador in Washington

After Clinton left office, he left DC to finish up his long foreign service career as Canadian ambassador to France. I used to get a laugh when Security at the Canadian Embassy used to want put me through the metal detector, and Raymond (his name) would show up and take me through, saying “he’s with me,” while his security people stared after us, wondering who TF was that guy?

I’ve been in touch with Raymond recently, and while I don’t know anyone in the present Canadian government, he obviously does. His uncle was PM for years, after all. They know there are plenty of people in the States who are as appalled as we are. They also know that Putin is just about the only one who is grinning right about now.

Like the rant said, don’t think they are pussies just because they act civilized.

[Bev54]

60. Who is his father that was PM? Curious

[DFW]

62. ????

His father was never PM

[Bev54]

64. Sorry, I meant Uncle, I am answering on the fly from hockey game to hockey game.

[DFW]

85. Ah, that's different!

Raymond’s family name is Chrétien. His uncle, Jean Chrétien, was PM during Raymond’s last years in the Canadian foreign service. He had two big farewell parties in Paris. I was honored to be the only Anglo invited to the French-speaking event, but I didn’t know anybody other than the Canadian embassy staff. Elegant but boring. On the other hand, if I had gone to the English-speaking party, I would have run into the Cheney-Bush crowd, introduced as a Republican-hating Texan. Raymond always the consummate diplomat.

[Bev54]

93. Jean Chrtien gave a speech at the liberal leadership

Vote a week ago today. He is now 91 and still very sharp. He gave an excellent speech, if you get a chance to watch it, very worthwhile. He still has a great sense of humour.

[eppur_se_muova]

94. ICK, that made me wonder what Turnip will be like at 91 .... oh, the horror ! nt

[paul91046]

52. Well said.

To think any country would elect a piece of s*** like him. We'll be lucky if we all survive and even like a year if he doesn't. His "policies" will kill more people than Hitler. As that great American Malcolm x said.......

[Borogove]

53. Most excellent.

[Gimpyknee]

54. WTF? Americans did not storm any beaches in Normandy on D-Day?

If you mean the Dieppe raid in August of 1942, let me remind you that the Canadians got their asses handed to them in that operation. As for Americans still debating to help, fifty U.S. Army Rangers participated in that raid and suffered three killed, five wounded, and three captured.

[MadameButterfly]

69. The success of the operation is irrelevant to the issue

It was heroism and to his point, happened while most of us were deciding whether we cared.

[Gimpyknee]

72. Most of us were deciding whether we cared?

Read your history. At the time of the Dieppe Raid, America had been at war with the Axis powers for eight months.

[MadameButterfly]

78. Sorry, I don't know about the Dieppe Raid

and I know the US was there on the beaches of Normandy. I don't know what battle the previous poster was referring to. Still irrelevant to my point: Canada enter WWII 2 years before the US. I'm not going to critique how well their battles went for those 2 years. We needed to be attacked directly before we joined, Canada didn't.

[canetoad]

56. K&R

Righteous.

57. This is So Genuinely Awesome, Bev!

Inspiring and Encouraging!

Mahalo! Canada-Canadians!

[SleeplessinSoCal]

67. Wish there was a bumper sticker version of this.

[MadameButterfly]

70. This is so satisfying and carthartic

i need stuff like this to keep me going. It gives me hope.
We are smarter than them. That has to count for something.

[SleeplessinSoCal]

71. I heard back from my friend living in Ottowa today.

".....I hope Canada doesn’t become the 51st state - not to mention all the tariffs which he is hoping will make us change our minds. What a nightmare all round."

She used to work at the UN. When we lived in NYC I met her through our mutual English friend. She followed me into the flat I shared in London. Then we both wound up in New York for a time. Such a small world. Another American who followed me into another flat showed up at a party in NYC. It was freaky.

So many friends from those days abroad. It is beyond madness to become part of the Axis of Evil. I can't begin to offer enough apologies for our treachery.

[Bev54]

73. We won't become the 51st state

Never. We are not worried about that, just pissed off. We are more worried about the people who will lose their jobs.

[SleeplessinSoCal]

75. I hope she was just being somewhat facetious.

We all know how insane Trump is. We just didn't know he'd protect himself with a bunch of sellout sycophants. I love the fight your politicians are putting up. Make him feel as uncomfortable as possible.

[Upthevibe]

[SuzyandPuffpuff]

81. Thank you

Bam! You said a mouthful baby...all of it TRUE

[KSL-Washington]

83. Well said

Yes, hell yes and don't hold back. Now if we could only get the US media to have the ball s to say this, we would be at the edge of beginning the possibility of recovery from the mas hypnosis the United States seems be suffering from. God, I love our Canadian brethren. I would gladly send you Donald Trump and Elon Musk if you promised to send them the the Northwest Territories in a jockstrap and a pair of crocs in the middle of a blizzard.

[Meowmee]

84. I think Canada needs to host some more nuclear weapons from Nato again

I know most there, and the country are against it but it would be a deterrent to orange psycho ever trying to act out his crap etc. If Ukraine had kept even some of theirs there would have not been a war there now imo.

Recently a Maga loon who was driving my brother somewhere via uber started going on about how Canada is going to be the next state etc. My brother explained to him why that is never going to happen. I don't even know why he started about that. My brother was not wearing his Canadian hat etc.

* Us, Uk and Canada all stormed Normandy at once as I recall. 😁

[Morbius]

86. This is a wonderful rant.

But Mr. Elliot did make a mistake about the Canadians storming the beaches of Normandy while Americans debated whether or not to help. Prior to D-day, Normandy was a heavily fortified German area (after the Vichy government was installed in France). The only storming that happened there was in June 1944, and the Americans had been in the war for 2 1/2 years by then. What he should have pointed out was that Canadian pilots and warplanes fought bravely in the Battle of Britain, against mostly superior German planes, in 1940, while Americans dithered and whined about Roosevelt's Lend-Lease program. But otherwise, he absolutely nailed it.

[Bev54]

89. Yeah I think what he was getting at was that Canada was

Fighting in WWII since 1939. He was maybe just inarticulate at the message.

[GoneOffShore]

87. Elbows up!

[Playingmantis]

88. Great letter!

Thanks for posting this..I have copied it and sent it to those I know might be interested..(obvioiusly this does not include Trumpers who cant read or think!)
