          We’ve already done similar to trucks delivering to Point Roberts. They didn’t have money to cover our retaliatory tariffs so we denied it entry. First instance was delivering to a food bank.

          Good. Fuck em. Point Roberts voted MAGA. They can do without.

              Bonded by American customs, fuck em, now it’s in Canada subject to Canadian laws When I initially read the article I thought it was a truck from the U.S. trying to get to the island, it’s actually a Canadian truck trying to get to the island. I’m not surprised that American border customs agents won’t honor the bonded process. We shouldn’t be either, especially for Point Robert’s on the West Coast that has to rely on Canadians good will for everything, yet around half of the citizens voted for Trump.

              I fucking hate American exceptionalism, like they’re rights are a above everyone else’s. Fuck em.

        I hope all the people who voted for dumpster fire man didn’t stock up on anything because they still think dumpster fire man gives a shit.

        I hope the other half form a posse to practice some good ol’ Direct Action.

    “Longest undefended border” was a figment in time. The US is shutting it down so Canada is wise to prepare for worse.

    Around half of the American residents of Point Robert’s voted for Trump, fuck em. For the Canadians living there, sorry, not sorry, you want to live in the U.S. enjoy all it entails.

    Edit: After reading the article, this happening from Maine to an island off of Maine. A truck sealed by U.S. customs, ya and fuck you, you chose for it to pass through Canada, so it’s now subject to Canadian laws. my reading comprehension is not good today, it is actually a Canadian truck being held at the border.

    Fucking Americans, thinking their rights outweigh everyone else’s. I can’t stand the American exceptionalist attitude.
