“Since Donald Trump began his tariff threats against Canada and his ‘jokes’ about making Canada the 51st US state, I have not bought a single product originating in the US,” said Lynne Allardice, 78, a retired business owner from New Brunswick, Canada.

“Not a single lettuce leaf or piece of fruit. I have become an avid reader of labels and have adopted an ‘anywhere but the US’ policy when shopping. I will not visit the States while Trump remains in office, and most of the people I know have adopted the same policy.”

Acquaintances, Allardice added, were selling US holiday properties they had owned for many years.

Trump is just cringe worthy entertainment, he's not the problem. America is the problem. The land of personal freedoms and zero personal responsibility. It's always someone else's fault, whether it be the media or the corporations.

I'm tired of it, let them glass themselves.
