As a duel citizen born in Canada, I feel for him and people there. I think he should acknowledge though that just under half the people in the US (of those who voted and who were not suppressed etc. )did not for vote any of this and we are not to blame for it. Canada has its own fair share of right wingers too. The system there I believe though and in the UK would not allow for such a person to rise to power. And there is a way to get rid of anyone like that pretty quickly, especially in the UK.

I think Canada is strong and will prevail over this insanity. Last I heard orange psycho has reversed the tariffs again? I hope so.

My brother got a radio I think 3 years ago... he was talking with people in different countries but he has not used it much since then.
