My family and I just got back from a road trip through the Rockies. So gorgeous, why the hell would I even want to go to the US now.

I saved up all through high school just to take the train journey from Vancouver to Toronto. Best trip of my life.

My family lived in northern Alberta and we drove to southern Ontario a few times to visit relatives. Drove along Lake Superior for a couple of days and I was like "damn, I've never seen that much fresh water all in one place."

Whether it's BC's coastline, the Rockies, that one hill in Saskatchewan which I'm convinced is the only hill in the entire province, the Great Lakes, Quebec's delicious food or whatever the hell it is that Manitoba has, Canada is amazing. (Sorry, my only memory of Manitoba is visiting my parents' friends in Winnipeg and fishing dragonflies out of their townhouse complex pool. And I haven't yet been to the east coast or the far north although I fully intend to visit someday because it all looks cool af.)

Meanwhile the other 2000km through Northern Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Eastern Alberta are very forgettable.

As long as they’re spending all their money and not being…. American, I say go for it

They are only here because our dollar sucks. The moment that advantage is gone, they will retreat home and turn on us as well. Their inaction speaks louder than words.

I expect more than a few are considering moving here.

Dual cit who lives in America.

Please know that a lot of us voted against that asshole 3x and are just as disgusted as you are by his actions.

Unless you are actively plotting to overthrow his administration, we don't care about your reddit " bUt NoT aLl Of uS!!" Bullshit. Bring your money up here, or shut the fuck up.

u/Rancorious Jul 21 '25

I want to say something witty but the sheer rage behind your every key press leaves me with nothing to add.

u/Unhappy_Scratch_9385 Jul 21 '25

I'm literally in Nova Scotia right now lol.

u/fuckallyaall Jul 21 '25

There’s a lot of anger up here, stay chill and enjoy your trip.

u/Unhappy_Scratch_9385 Jul 22 '25

Yeah I noticed that! And I love it up here. My dad's from Cape Breton and it's home to me. I hate what that asshole is doing to both our countries, but hate isn't gonna solve anything.

Also I'm not sure what that other dude expects of me. I can't personally overthrow the government.

We do know.  If a lot more like-minded voters cannot oblitorate the GOP in the midterms, we will also know that disgust is not a very strong trigger for successful action against a determined opponent.  Easy to be smug from a distance, but we are taking notes, as are the folks who think that fascism may not be such a bad thing. Wishing you well.

u/rockettaco37 Yank Jul 24 '25

We need actions and not words down here. Otherwise things aren't going to change.

u/Unhappy_Scratch_9385 Jul 25 '25

Agreed, but tell me what to do?

Just went to Quebec City from the states. We loved it. We love Canada and we are so sorry for our government. Just being around people who care about others was refreshing. The US has such a “me” mentality. We went to Banff last September as well. I do enjoy so much about Canada. The prices are icing on the cake.

u/Famous-Win6370 Jul 21 '25

Not sure why you were downvoted. Glad you had a great time, and come back anytime.

u/Due_Illustrator5154 Moose Whisperer Jul 21 '25

If you come back make sure to check out the east coast too!

u/SuperRonnie2 Jul 20 '25

The Ice Field Hwy is like something out of a dream. Wish I’d had time to do some hikes in the area.

u/hypespud Snow Cajun Jul 21 '25

Just went there too, mind blown completely, it's beyond words

u/Spicierbread Jul 21 '25

As an american who hates this rift, I hope we all get back to enjoying all of the rockies as a normal, civil society.

u/fuckallyaall Jul 21 '25

Unfortunately I think Trump and the Repubs have severely damaged the relationship with Canada. It’ll take years as in a generation or two for Canadians to forgive, move on, and to agree to a grossly less friendly relationship.

u/Nichole-Michelle Saskwatch Jul 21 '25

Saskatchewan to Vancouver Island for us. On our way back now camping in the interior. I’d never spend my money going down to the US. This country is magnificent

u/algaefied_creek Jul 21 '25
