This is weirdly person example to illiterate the problem, also I’m not Canadian and I’m not sure why this group keeps showing up on feed. I’ll also add a bonus thing Canadians should expect from companies as your boycott (that I agree with) continues.
So the weirdly personal story. I recently got a new boss who has the military view of “break them down then build them back up”. I explained to him once “that works in the military because they have the resources and specialists to catch the people who don’t respond well to that approach. People like me. I have severe SEVERE ADHD. I can’t take medication for it because it destroys my already low appetite and I die. So I built up pillars on my own. Pillars for emotion regulation, pillars to control impulsive behavior, pillars that allow me to function in this world. It was a lot of work. It took a lot of time. If you come in swinging a wrecking ball blindly, if you break you down… You have no way to rebuild any of that. You don’t have the specialized skills needed to rebuild those pillars. So not only would I be temporarily destroyed and unable to do my job, I’d also have to rebuild myself which isn’t what you wanted”
My point about trump is he clearly is taking the “destroy them rebuild” approach and much like my new boss he is absolutely not capable of rebuilding what he destroys.
Anyway, bonus fact for the boycotts. Keep your eyes out for people adding “Canada” to the name of the company. Example: Great American Buckle Company is a Chinese belt buckle manufacturer. You should expect those kind of things soon.
Edit: and as an American I support these boycotts. The more his stupidity effects rich and powerful, the more companies feel his stupidity, faster he’ll be gone. So thank you. I don’t know the Canadian version of “God bless the USA” but just pretend I ended with that out of respect for you all. I would have if I knew it. Go Canada?
