“I think a lot of the political stuff is keeps us divided. I think we should stay together and help each other out and not fuel into a lot of the political theater and division that they perpetrate in the media,” said Rioux.
It’s a nice thought, but no amount of pleasant thoughts is going to reduce the active hostility of your current government. I likely won’t be entering that country ever again.
