Listen. Americans. Your pledge is weird and there’s not a single person outside of the US who will disagree with me on this. Lose the flag chant, it’s giving Branch Davidian crossed with Stockholm syndrome. Just blink twice if you’re not okay.
@godlessmom Dear Canada, Message received. The idea that we need to invoke "I believe in dear leader speak" while not speaking to anyone outside of the country is creepy AF. That said the #1stAmmendment allows any child that doesn't want to say it, not to say it. BUT, as I understand it, Canada's free speech laws are not as robust as the US.
While I don't ascribe your lack of free speech laws in Canada to Canadian values, I only hope you extend that same courtesy to your south neighbors
