Ugh what a powerful woman
Canadians really think they’re hot shit when they are also a colonial state just like the rest of north America. they are just as racist as the us they just dont like admitting it.
LOVE to hear this narrative about Canada. Americans in my experience so often have such a flattened notion of Canada’s history and role in the world; at best, there’s an understanding that Canada also perpetrated genocide against indigenous nations. It is much more complicated than that and I appreciate her unpacking some of that!
God I love her
I’m 32 and my dad went to a residential school as a kid, so that stuff happened kinda recently. They broke his arm while he was there
my Indigenous relatives north of the border know this to be true. canada is a deeply colonial and racist state, she’s just saying it like it is. good on her for speaking it.
I’m getting that impression now that in reality, the fascism happening in the US government *could* be stopped by other nations, but they’re too scared to be cut off from the goods and services offered to them.
glad more people are talking about this. as a very left leaning person in the US, it boils my blood to see canadians on the internet act like they have nothing bad in their country. just because our shit is out there for everyone to see right now doesn’t mean you don’t have your fair share of problems…
