The U.S. Invasion of Canada

When two fish are fighting in the water, an Englishman must’ve been there

Welp, this is incredibly relevant now

Here 5 years later, as the anti-america is rampant in canada currently. I really dont get it. America is great

Well the anti-Americanism is now completely understandable since we’re at trade war cause trump wanted to.

Turner turn out to be right lmao

Canada should kick out every American

This guy is so full of shit and he has no idea what it is to be canadian

Well, wouldn't you know, North America is more liberal than conservative?

It is called patriotism, not nationalism. Nationalism is when you confuse nation and national values with ethnicity and make up "popular spirit" stuff, claiming that the ethnicity equals these or these morals, which happenstance equals your own morals: convenient, but false. And patriotism is not to be confused with the left or the right: anybody, left or right, can be a patriot without being nationalist, defending your nation from outer threats, such as Trump/Tech-bros/MAGA.

Correction: abortion is regulated in Canada.

Correction: Canadians don't hate Americans. We just don't like some aspects of your culture. I'm sure it's mutual

To be clear, we don't CHOOSE to think of the US. Your media is ever present and so we passively know more about you than you do about us. If our media flooded south you too would know more about us than you currently do.

Dairy products is because Canada didn’t and still don’t want the growth hormones in American dairy products

Americans want to be a British colony again Make America British Again. MABA.

"Left-wing nationalism" 😂😂
Where do you come up with this shit? There is no such thing. Plus you look gay so its obvious that you're not playing with a full deck.

The current political climate offers proof of the correctness of anti-Americanism. The US wants to snuff Canada out as its own, sovereign State. Ditto Greenland. The only difference between the US and Russia, today, is that tanks aren't massing on the Canadian border (- yet ! -). No wonder Trump is so pro-Putin, and anti-Zelensky.

What led to all this ? SHEER AMERICAN ARROGANCE. The kind that could see Trump as offering legitimate, decent leadership, and worthy of succeeding in elections. I see Canada as a civilised and decent version of America.

Thankfully we got Trumpet Donny adding more reasons for Canadians to hate Americans

This is inaccurate. This was not racist country under Britain. Even Quebec rejected the siren song of the Americans. this happened in the 18th century. The French knew that Great Brittain would allow them to keep their religion, their language and the their culture. Canada was the first to outlaw slavery even before Great Britain. The British defended us in the War of 1812. Many fought with Canadian soldiers and Indigenous.

More relevant than ever

Excellent review of this topic. The American war of Independence was over Home Rule - how much to the colonies? Well, there was a lot per the charters (8 colonies had royal guvs, 3 proprietors and CT and RI always elected theirs) and the locals had 150 years of experience basically running themselves and fighting wars against Spain and France more or less on their own while Britian was focused on the Sugar Islands of the Carb Sea before 1755. The division in 1775 was political not cultural 45% for a break, 25% for keeping ties - for multiple reasons. The loyalists were Called the King Loyal Americans. Over the decades the Loyalists turned into Canadian (a word for the French speakers previously). The desire for home rule or a say their governance was immediate after the new guv of New Brunswick declared an election to the Assembly void because the faction that want a say won and rioted. He had 305 of them arrested for sedition. Britain never learns or didn't until responsible government was granted in 1848 which meant that the govs and executive councils were not longer in the saddle and royal guvs had to accede to the Assemblies.

The difference is that things like nationalized health care, gun control and immigration are not seen in Canada as left or right wing - just necessary. I am a progressive yet conservative person. In Canada, the two are not mutually exclusive. This is yet another way that Canadians are not at all like Americans.

That's so hilarious that Canadians think that way them saying they're not American is rooted in insecurities

Patriotism or nationalism. Is healthcare leftist?

Its not a land for white

I agree with you, and honestly I think the Anti-American sentimentality is a good thing, and helps sustain us as a nation. Being better than our asshole neighbours is a good incentive to do well domestically and on the world stage

JJ, in light of recent and very unfortunate events, I think you'll need to revisit the entire question of Canadian nationalism.

As an American, I find both the tariffs and annexation talk to be abhorrent!

Well this aged well

You should rename your channel "The Ranting Wound That Won't Heal"

You're painful to listen to and your manic bouncing is painful to watch

South Korea also has left-wing nationalism, especially when it comes to things such as welfare, anti-Japanese colonialism, anti-US bases, and pro-reunification.

🇨🇦

I thought this was a new video give how relevent the title was to current events, only for J.J.’s voice to sound wayyyy different than I’m used to lol

Canada's weird left-wing anti-American nationalism strikes again.

You're going to have to make an update of this video in light of recent events.

As a Canadian, I had to turn off the video when he started saying "a boot" instead of about. It sounds so forced and seems like something he bases his whole identity around. Very strange.

Aroond? You mean AROUND? Canadian here btw.

This is such a good summary I wish all Canadians would watch

Lord Durham was sent to find solutions in upper and lower Canada, as both had rebellions in recent years. He specifically told the British to unite the colonies as a way to limit French political power by forcing them to be a minority in the union.

Is this guy for real? He sounds like he has never even been to Canada.

Right wingers just threaten to leave. Bye!

This didn't age well. 😂

Ehhhhh the the left import waaaay to many immigrants that dont assimilate to be considered nationalist.
