🧊 Leave Canada Alone, You Weird Ex
Why does Trump keep picking fights with Canada? What’d they ever do—send us Celine Dion? Okay, that was a bit much, but still.
This is the neighbor who mows your lawn when you’re sick. The friend who brings dip to your barbecue and apologizes when you forget the chips.
Meanwhile, Trump shows up shirtless, smashes the ketchup bottles, and demands we burn their lumber.
Canada gave us Ryan Reynolds, maple syrup, and healthcare that doesn’t feel like a casino bet. They even helped on 9/11 without making it weird.
And yet Trump’s out here slapping tariffs like they stole his girlfriend. Newsflash: they didn’t. She just liked their Wi-Fi and better maternity leave.
Seriously—let’s stop negging the nicest country on Earth. They gave us hockey. We gave them Fox News. We owe them an apology.
