Aren't you all catching enough bullshit just breathing the crazy fumes wafting over the border?

Those crazy people wont have a reason to leave the US though. They basically dont even know we exist anyhow.

The ones we want, the smart people, are the ones that will move. And we could definitely use more skilled labourers to build those homes we are missing for example. Plus, Americans are already proficient in English so could work real well wherever they go.

No, don't. We need to build more homes first and we're already way behind.

We'll bring construction workers and food overly-laden in sugar and salt

I think in Canada they’re packaged as food adjacent products
