I seriously worry about how this inevitable change will effect Canada and our 150+ year relationship with the U.S. These two countries had so much in common at one point, but not any longer. The America we once knew and loved is almost unrecognizable now.

Better believe there are a lot of Canadians who want us to continue having a lot in common with them. This relationship might have been good for Canada in a lot of ways, but it's also caused people to forget that the things that separate us from the US are some of the best things about this country.
Conservatives already dance around abortion with "we'll never bring it up but won't stop anyone else from doing it" nonsense and they're already trying to dismantle the healthcare system. The relationship with the US is more like an infection at this point.
