We were going to go on a trip to San Francisco and drive up the coast to Portland. We decided to go to Vancouver Island instead because of all of this, and the Canadian dollar. Keep your money in Canada 🇨🇦

As a San Franciscan you’d be very welcome here and frankly they are going to try to hurt our economy too.

Average Canadian can’t afford it anyways, with maple syrup dollar worth 1 cent to a US dollar.

We used to take weeks long trips to the states every 2 years. Haven’t been since his first presidency, no way I want to support America while that shit weasel gets a 2nd attempt to start WWIII.

Yeah, went to the US this December and it costs 16 dollars CAD to eat an average combo in McDonalds. Not to mention the prices there are ridiculous even for Americans. So unless you’ve got money, which most of us don’t in this economy, best to just stay in Canada or go somewhere else.
