Another thing that is often glossed over is the major difference between Canada and the US. Canada has historically been characterized by good governance. Not necessarily good policy making, but the day to day running of the country is, and has traditionally been sound, if uninspiring at times. Canada has a strong and stable group of bureaucrats and civil servants that are accountable and professional.
It's easy to find fault and complaining about leadership is a national pastime, but we've got it good compared to the clown show to the south.
I have friends who are American, and Republicans, and they think Trump is the greatest guy in the world, and anything bad said or written about him is "fake news". Sometimes, when they post their views on social media, I wonder if I can be friends with them any longer.
