no, canada and the usa are not the same

but the differences aren't what white canadians make them out to be

ask a white canadian what the difference and they'll tell you canada is more 'polite', that we have a better human rights record

which is, of course, absolute bullshit

you really want to know the differences? here are the ones i can think of:

we've never elected a person of colour as leader of the country (fuck obama but cmon guys, jagmeet singh is right fucking there)

we maintain a better reputation, despite doing essentially everything that the usa is criticized for

meanwhile, our record of genocide and slavery is parallel to theirs

indigenous communities still don't have access to safe drinking water

black and brown people are still disproportionately incarcerated and forced to work for cents per hour (legalized slavery)

a man who did blackface and brownface at least three times has led this country for two terms

the liberal party's federal government continues to sell arms to places like saudi arabia, weapons which are then used to kill brown people overseas

justin trudeau is very fond of drone strikes (in asian and middle eastern countries, because if he did that to white countries it would be recognized internationally that he is committing war crimes)

our healthcare system still doesn't include dentalcare, pharmacare, or opticalcare

I could go on, but hopefully you're getting the point. in case you aren't, this is the point

white canadians can take their superiority complex and shove it. we are not better than the states. you are not free from privilege just because there is a border between canada and the states.

We really are a police state.

good things will happen 🧿

things that are meant to be will fall into place 🧿

dry humping for hours with lots of biting and hair pulling that turns into ripping off each other's clothes because just friction isn't enough

A men to that
