    People are mad at Americans collectively because collectively your culture let this happen–so what people want to see is the slightest inkling that you understand the nature of the problem, have a sense of responsibility about it, and are shifting your mindsets to do something about it.

    Coming online to whine at Canadians doesn’t inspire confidence that you get it.

    Personally, I’m just hoping that I’m what I’m seeing online is not representative of what Americans are doing because yeah… Some of the online American response I have been seeing… Woof.

      Most Americans don’t care, or are celebrating. Nothing changed for 90% of people I see IRL. Groceries are getting a bit more expensive but “things gotta get worse for a bit before they can get better” - their words, not mine.
