Canadians I've met are far from obnoxious other than insisting they don't need sunscreen.

Blame America.
Canadians have taken to practicing pocketbook diplomacy in defense of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who is caught in a trade war of words with President Trump, by boycotting American goods and canceling vacations to the United States, according to a report.
Shoppers are shunning Kentucky bourbon, California wine and Florida oranges, and avoiding American companies like Starbucks, Walmart and McDonald’s,
On Twitter, hashtags like #BuyCanadian, #BoycottUSProducts and #BoycottUSA are spreading as outrage over Trump’s trade tariffs grows.
An Ottawa man posted a “Trump-free grocery cart” full of products from Canada or from “countries with strong leadership.”
Vacationers said they would be staying up north this summer instead of booking trips to the US.
“F–k you Trump. We just booked a $3,000 vacation to beautiful British Columbia. Happy anniversary to us. #Canadastrong #BuyCanadian #F***Tariffs,” tweeted Supreme Leader Lyna.
Trudeau acknowledged the support of individual Canadians during an event at Parliament earlier this week.
“There’s a bit of a patriotic boost going on these past few days,” he said.
Trump and Trudeau are locked in a tiff over tariffs after the president last week said he would impose penalties on steel and aluminum imports.
The squabble escalated over the weekend at the G7 meeting of economic powers in Quebec when Trudeau said in a news conference that Canada would not be “pushed around” by the US and called the tariffs “insulting.”
Trump heard the remarks as he flew in Air Force One to his summit in Singapore with North Korea’s Kim Jong Un and withdrew from a statement issued by the G7 on trade.
He also blasted Trudeau in a tweet, calling him “very dishonest & weak.” Filed under canada , donald trump , justin trudeau , vacations

I live in Florida snowflake country. Our Canadians are no more obnoxious than any one else. You want obnoxious, see the New York/New Jersey detritus that plagues us.

My gg and ggg grandfathers were born in Canada...the descendants of Loyalists...
I went out to lunch to celebrate the American president’s BDay...
O’Charley’s began in Nashville, USA...

Gee that’s three strikes !!!
Are my ancestors rolling over in their graves ???
No kidding! I’m gonna up my summertime tipping this year!
The absolute worst are the French canucks. Rude rude rude. And very snobby, all while pretending they speak no English.
Someone called them with a political agenda
And provided a couple of quotes and hashtags
Oh, BS. I call fake news.
No speedos on the beach this year!
love your tagline. It’s time we let these snow commies know we ALLOW them to live on OUR Continent!
Dumbasses. Everyone knows the snowbird Canadians leave after Easter. Whoop de doo.....Wake me up at Thanksgiving when they flock to AZ, TX, and esp, FL.
People! I swear. This is total fake news. Don’t get all riled up and insultive (made that up). Quebec-ers might have their panties in a twist, but most don’t care in the least.
LOL! Nope.
Canada is a great nation, ruined by Quebec.
Canadians I've met are far from obnoxious other than insisting they don't need sunscreen.
Turns outa lot of canadians are snowflakes too.
I believe it’s not fake news. Most Canadians are very anti-American.
I say BS to this. Some knuckleheads never inclined to give POTUS the time of day anyway throw some social media fits and wow we have a flood. Not.
Unfortunately they’ll return when the weather in Canada gets cold next month.
