To the editor: President Trump didn’t assume issues by relating to the takeover of Canada. With barely more people than California, Canada would have, by one estimate, 47 Electoral School votes. Herald liberals with Canada’s nationwide Pharmacare and common medical health insurance plans and it will change the US. A lot for swing states. It might transfer the U.S. to the left and wipe out conservative majorities.
Canada’s authorities negotiates prescription prices and healthcare charges. It spends rather a lot much less on healthcare and will get a lot better outcomes total. The 8% of Americans without healthcare insurance would vote with the Canadians. If the Supreme Courtroom’s make-up modifications, abortion might grow to be authorized in all U.S. states.
Florida and Arizona, each of whom have large Canadian winter populations, could swing to Canadian views of liberalism. Canadians are much less non secular than Americans. It might be a reverse takeover of America.

To the editor: To my American mates, I do know most of you’re superb and beneficiant individuals. You didn’t ask for this and I perceive that. I maintain no ailing will in direction of you, however I need to stress, with as a lot seriousness as I can, the harm Trump has precipitated.
American merchandise at the moment are being faraway from our retailer cabinets, and Canadians are canceling journey to the U.S. We’re not overreacting. We don’t assume Trump is simply negotiating a deal. We consider our closest neighbor needs to economically destroy us and eradicate our lifestyle.
Canadians are indignant. I hope there may be time to restore this. I consider that is the results of one man’s recklessness. Time is working out.

To the editor: In 1972, when jobs in greater training had been very scarce, Canada took me in. I had nearly accomplished my doctorate and wanted a job. For 9 years, I taught at St. Jerome’s College in Waterloo, the place I used to be welcomed with typical Canadian grace and by no means felt like an “ugly American.”
I did return to the States for household and profession causes, however my reminiscences of our extraordinary northern neighbor are candy. They gave me my begin in greater training for which I’ll at all times be grateful. Trump would possibly take account of our enduring friendship with that nation in framing his commerce insurance policies.
