To the editor: I wish to take this chance to inform Canadians that not all Individuals have drunk the MAGA Kool-Help. An excellent share of us is as baffled as you might be that our fellow residents elected Donald Trump as our president once more. We’re really frightened for the way forward for our nation. (“The ‘51st state’? Canadians say no, thanks. They don’t need U.S. merchandise both,” Feb. 12)
I’ve visited Canada just a few occasions and located the surroundings pretty, the cities and cities vibrant and charming and the folks pleasant. I used to be shocked to search out that most of the Canadians I met on the road and within the retailers appeared to know extra about U.S. politics than Individuals.
I agree that choosing a struggle with our next-door neighbor is senseless in any respect, and I don’t blame you for boycotting American items. Many people hope that, if the state of affairs turns insufferable right here within the U.S., Canada may welcome us. We’ll carry our abilities and our cash and won’t be a burden.
Within the meantime, please settle for my humble apologies on behalf of my fellow Individuals who nonetheless respect our neighbor to the north.

California may be a part of Canada. Given Trump’s disdain for California, why shouldn’t we? The opposite 4 Pacific states ought to observe, creating 15 provinces in Canada.
