Oh. My. Gosh. Like, Canadians are sooo over Trump right now, and honestly? Same. So, like, first, Trump goes and slaps these, like, totally rude tariffs on Canadian imports, right? And Canada is just like, “Uh, excuse you?” So they whip up this massive C$6.5 billion package to help businesses deal with it. Like, they’re handing out cash left and right—C$5 billion for exporters to find new markets (because, duh, they don’t need Trump’s drama), C$1 billion for farmers and food industries, and C$500 million for, like, super low-interest loans. They’re even tweaking employment insurance so people don’t get fired just because Trump woke up and chose chaos.
And girl, the way Canadian politicians are dragging him? Iconic. Foreign Minister Mélanie Joly literally said Trump is an “existential” threat to Canada, and she’s basically warning Europe like, “Umm, watch out, besties, he’s coming for you next.” She was not here for his unpredictable trade drama and made it clear Canada is not about to roll over. And, like, the beef between Trump and Trudeau? It’s getting so personal. They had this, like, mega-tense phone call where they were just fighting over everything—trade, dairy, fentanyl—and Trudeau was not backing down. And, like, I swear, every time Trump throws a tantrum, Trudeau’s approval ratings skyrocket. Canadians are just like, “Yes, king, stand your ground.”
And you know Canadians don’t just sit around and take it. The second Trump started messing with them, they were, like, “Bye, America,” and started boycotting everything. I’m talking full-on rejection of U.S. products—like, 98% of Canadians are now actively searching for “Made in Canada” goods. And streaming services? Plummeting. Netflix, Disney+—all getting ditched. People are even canceling their trips to the U.S. like, “No thanks, I’ll just go somewhere that doesn’t have Trump.”
And then, like, Trump has the audacity to suggest Canada should become the 51st state. Girl. Canadians were not having it. Trudeau was basically like, “Not a snowball’s chance in hell,” and even Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre was like, “Literally no.” The whole thing just made Canada even more patriotic—like, sales of Canadian flags shot up, and now people are walking around in “Canada Is Not For Sale” merch.
So, like, if Trump thought Canada was just gonna, like, roll over and say, “Sure, daddy America, take us,” he seriously miscalculated. Instead, they’re out here doubling down on their independence, protecting their economy, and proving they so do not need the U.S. drama. Ugh, iconic.
