'Today we launched a new international campaign focused on encouraging Canadians to come visit the great state of California,' Gov. Gavin Newsom says in a video.
It isn't even lock you up in the US but possibly send you to a slave camp in El Salvador. Why would any Canadian risk that?
Time for what the US always suggests to other countries - time for Regime Change. Until Trump, his family, and his cronies are out of government, boycott the USA.
Governor Newsom should look to his own affairs first.
I wonder, if we were threatening their sovereignty, openly and repeatedly, would they come visit us? No, they'd be losing their minds. I see California as one of the less outrageous parts of the US, but that doesn't mean I'm going to suddenly give up my integrity and self-respect because they need my business.
If you want Canadians to travel to the US, get rid of trump first. It's not entirely a moral issue anyway, it's genuinely dangerous for foreigners now. Why the hell would I risk my freedom? Because I feel sorry for their economy? No thanks.
As a Californian - fuck Newsom. He's riding to the right far too much, especially lately.
My Canadian friends - the US needs you, probably significantly more than you need us right now. Don't back down against the fascism and tyranny; the fact that we're hurting for your money is how you know you're succeeding. Those of us trying to stand up inside the US can use all the external pressure we can get.
Newsom needs to be replaced by a real progressive. He's trying to shift to the middle at a time when the whole Democratic party just showed what an absolutely horrible tactic it is.
Even if he could guarantee complete safety, there's no way in hell I'm stepping into the land of the Christo-fascists, or giving their economy my money.
No. California likes those Canadians spending their sweet sweet dollars in the US. When California leaves the US, then we’ll talk. My boycott of the US lasts a lifetime or longer.
