Usually I am sympathetic towards people losing their jobs. However, that goes out the window when their government is hostile and I am watching family struggle due to the trade war.

I’ll join the Americans in the thread in reminding that this is less of Canada vs US and more of the 99% vs the 1%. A struggle that exist on each side of the border with the 1% cooperating across the border. I say this as someone who actively dislikes plenty of American culture. 😅
I too enjoyed this juicy bit of schadenfreude tho.
Canadian here, and I agree. Sadly global products tend to lead directly to the 1%, and its best if most people buy from local and small businesses – for the environment too. And to donate / help poor countries so they can be better self sufficient.
So so many problems would be solved by this. Help at macro country-to-country level, not on individual level.
