At least two decades ago, I started engaging in the following thought experiment with my fellow Canadians: “Tell me what it means to be a Canadian, but don’t use ‘America’ or ‘American’ in your explanation.” 99.9% of people were left speechless, unable to form a response.
Ever since Donald Trump came to the political fore, things have gotten even worse. This Canadian man clearly illustrates the problem.
Note: I fully realize that none of this applies to most SDA regulars (who are not trolls), but whenever I have conversations with Canadians in BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, and Québec, these people can’t seem to hide their seething hatred for America and most Americans.
