After he’s dead and gone I STILL won’t be returning. Never again giving them a dime if I can help it.😡🇨🇦
While not Canadian - I’m currently rooting out all US services and products I’ve happily been paying for, cancelling outright or finding other alternatives.
I don’t see myself ever going back to happily buying US again.
I am currently trying to convince my employer to ditch Google and all associated services, as well as the US-based cyber security suites that are currently tanking the performance of all of our workstations. It would be nice if there was an easy replacement for Windows. Linux is a no-go for our IT people.
Because of my husbands work, we would often have to go out to NYC. I always considered it my second home. I also enjoyed travelling out to the west coast, specifically Manhattan Beach in California.
But theres always Paris to replace that void of NYC and pretty much anywhere else in the Mediterranean to replace cali. A definite upgrade. My husband had left the company a couple years back to start a new company — one based in Canada with some former execs. So we no longer need to go to NYC.
We will never be returning back. And on behalf of all my friends who faught in Afghanistan, America can get fucked.
Never going back.
The only reason I would go to the USA would be to piss on trump’s grave.
The day that all the soggy burger-lettuce that’s holding him together finally gives out will go down in history as the 2nd time that ‘Ding Dong the Witch is Dead’ reaches number 1 in the UK music charts.
Back before the Canadian dollar was at or near par, we’d visit the US from Toronto monthly. We’d roll up to the outlets and score deals. I’d pick up parcels from my cross-border PO box. And then once we were all shopped out, we’d treat ourselves to a quality meal at Olive Garden and be on our merry way. Some nights we’d even get a room at the nearby casino, drop some money at the penny slots.
Since 2016, in addition to the low Canadian dollar, the political climate and the rise of anti-intellectuals have really forced us to think twice about spending any time across the border.
It used to be a fun day trip with great deals and cheap food. It’s not the case anymore.
We’ll miss you, but believe me, we totally understand.
I’m American, and don’t blame you one bit.
Not just gone from government, but dead. And none of his spawn in any government positions.
I was planning a trip to PA and Las Vegas in 2025.
Now those have been changed to France and Amsterdam. It’ll cost me much more, however I’m not going to America for the foreseeable future.
I’m honestly too fucking scared to as a foreigner
A German tourist took their tatoo pen/equipment on a trip to US. They were accused of trying to work illegally and jailed until the time of their prebooked return trip home.
I’m a programmer and i take my laptop everywhere… i’d be fucked!
First, “Unlock your laptop, or straight to jail”. Next, Emacs installed? Obviously straight to jail. Notepad++? Believe it or not, jail.
I am an American and very concerned about where we are headed as a country. We treat all of our allies terribly and now Russia is our friend? Don’t come here-things are too unstable
Yes please. This is a time when things need to be corrected, and as long as Trump and his fascist party are in charge that will nene happen.
Even though Trump has now paused tariffs on some products until April, we’re still not about to spend a nickel to prop up the U.S. economy when its president has pledged to destroy ours. We don’t want to be doing any of this, and we know so many Americans who also wish none of this were happening. But this is our reality now.
Yep, that’s about it. But it’s not just our economy Trump has vowed to destroy, it’s our country.
He’s trying to destroy yours, but he’s actively destroying the US already.
Make sure your fellow countrymen know that, and don’t allow a wannabe dictator to come to power. It’s still not too late for you guys.
I don’t blame you.
I am still waiting for all the fuss after 9/11 to die down, haven’t been there since before that.
