If you have an American flag in Canada, there are only 2 options. 1 you're a traitor, or 2, you're an enemy.

I will forgive coma patients, and nobody else.

What if I hang it upside down?

Sadly I think some of the folks in power at our neighbours to the south use this as a calling card for their desired endgame: https://www.wcbu.org/npr-news/2024-06-03/the-upside-down-american-flag-goes-mainstream-as-a-form-of-right-wing-protest

They’re destroying and capturing everything. Twisting the meaning of everything.

It’s revolting.

Right after 9/11, almost every house in Canada had American flags up in their windows. Newspapers were even printing full page flags for people to use. That's how much Canadians cared about Americans.

How do you fuck up so badly that you have Canadians throwing American flags in the trash?

That's cool. Can you guys take all the Canadian flags down in Florida too?

(People downvoting have never been to Florida and seen all of the canadian flags everywhere. You're missing the joke.)

Snowbirds selling their properties and refusing to visit there will take their flags back with them. Florida's tourism industry is really going to be missing the Canadians next winter no matter where the tariffs go.

The only thing I'll say is if you were Canadian and still vacationing in Florida prior to this Trump bullshit, but after Ron Desantis' bullshit, you were already performing mental gymnastics overlooking countless red flags. Anyone with ethics beyond 'patriotism' sold ages ago. Also fuck Florida. <3

To be fair, Florida doesn’t deserve Canadian flags. Maybe the next couple of hurricanes as FEMA gets gutted, and an imploding economy, that seems more like Florida’s just desserts. Good on you Canadians btw! No sense in wasting your time on that gator infested sinking ship

Have you seen the millions of Canadian flags in Florida? It's an occupied territory.
