@MikeImBack

What are they even trying to accomplish here? Seems like a great opportunity for binational mass civil disobedience. To bring attention to it if nothing else. Most Americans, especially MAGAats will never hear about this.

My camera shoots fascists

@MikeImBack

Because us Americans have been so systematically victimized by… Canadians? MAGA always has been based on grievance politics, but this is so over the top.

@Mikal The film Canadian Bacon should be played in every theater across America!
