You don't spot other Canadians at airports and hostels because you see a Canadian flag.... You spot Canadians because of the MEC backpack

Lol. I was a MEC fan before the takeover, now they just import Chinese stuff I can buy on AliExpress for much less
Honestly, Americans overseas are usually fantastic people. It's only the ones that do tour group type stuff that get on everyone's nerves including all the other foreigners. Which, coincidentally, seems to be the cohort the article is speaking about.
If you're not one of them, don't worry about it. You're travelling, not on a school excursion for adults that don't want to/can't take care of themselves. Most people love American travellers. Very friendly, inquisitive, and generous people.
Airports need to rip off those lying scummy badges when they’re caught.
no thanks, keep your crazy down there
Yeah because Canada isn't headed the same direction just 25 years behind.
If we had proportional representation already, it would help avoid right wing extremism.
We're rooting for you to get it. Fucking hope y'all can avoid the insanity down here.
We need to be a beacon hope for the compassionate Americans and regularly spare against Trump’s threats.
Headed, dragged, it feels the same.
the longer the better, just let me die first.
Feels more like 5 years behind.
How's that measles outbreak going up there?
fine actually, its not near anywhere i live
Lol we are the same brother I just need these dorks to fight a little hards for a few more years.
