Yeah. As a Canadian, I can't say that I'm not fucking sick of it. This America-centric bullshit has gone on for far too fucking long, and if there is one thing that I will thank Donald Trump for, it is finally giving me a socially acceptable justification for hating that entire fucking shit stain of a country.

Don't worry, we hate this country too :)

Though, we are part of the world last I checked, so while I understand an eye roll level of annoyance at US news being posted in a world news community, some of y'all need therapy with how angry you're getting. It's weird.

Whoa! I never knew you were a Canuck. Glad you're better off.

But we should be used to this centric viewpoint. We have Toronto and our own country's fixation on the toronto-niagra-montreal Triangle of Journalistic Relevance, outside of which no one and nothing matters.

I try not to hate the yanks just because the news fixates on them for the same reason our news fixates in its own way. And I've met so many smart and caring yanks that are just not being heard in their own country.

Newfie too. I'm the best of the best. So definitely aware of how centric the rest of Canada can be, trust me.
