Cross the border from here in Canada into very "blue" New York and you'll drive through a huge swathe of what is actually "red" Trump country in Western New York.

Outside of the urban areas even "blue" states are red, or "purple."

The reality is that America voted for this guy. It's not nearly as regionally divided as liberals in America want to think.

For me, it means not going there anymore. I just won't cross the border for any reason.

Rural Canadians are eating up trump style rhetoric as fast as it can be minted.

Canada is next. There’s no escape from this kind of madness.

Yeah I live rural Ontario. Last municipal election people's lawns were covered with idiotic "Stop Woke" signs. And my parents are in rural Alberta. Oh boy.

Not with a bang but a whimper, etc. etc.

Why do you think Stop Woke" signs" are idiotic?
Hey...

Screw you, buddy.
