The worst case scenario for a Canadian trying to enter the US used to be that you could be denied entry, and have to go home, travel plans in ruins.

The worst case scenario now is to be arrested without charge, held in an ICE detention facility in chains, and then shipped off to a concentration camp in El Salvador.

Should make you think twice.

@DavidM_yeg Yep, "land of the free" it certainly isn't.

@DavidM_yeg I am frantically trying to get my passport renewed. I am probably going to lose my home but I hope to survive the holocaust now in America. I look white. I may have a slight advantage. Growing a beard just in case. #CoveringMyAss #USA2025

@DavidM_yeg same for the UK. Business trip just cancelled. My (American) boss was shocked but I'm not willing to risk

@DavidM_yeg
Just a helper so you can better think about the benefits of becoming Americans when your liberating stormtroopers come over the border.

Always these Canadians, so negative. The Glorious Leader offers them a few vacation in El Salvador, and do you do? Call it a "worst case".

With a non-Nazi right hand movement, your friendly MAGA nut

@DavidM_yeg A good moment to have a thought for the people from the global South. They've have experienced forever what Canadians and Europeans are just discovering. Not just by US immigration, but generally.
Disclaimer. I am a white Mexican with an EU passport so fairly free from that burden, but many friends have had it rough in the US.

@dacig @DavidM_yeg I remember the testimony of an ex colleague, a white Spaniard with Spanish passport, being arbitrarily detained for hours, and verbally abused, as he was coming back from Spain to the US, where he lived, since he worked, of all things, as a Google engineer. It made me think I'd probably think twice about visiting the US again. That was at least 10 years ago. With things as they are today... No chance I'll book a trip there! The US tourism industry just died.

@DavidM_yeg why come here at all?

@WmShakesp3are

Indeed. I’m sorry for all the people your coming isolation will harm, but it is (collectively) self-inflicted.

@DavidM_yeg WTF are you talking about? In less words, I was simply stating that if I didn’t live here I wouldn’t be here and as soon as I can (when spouse retires) I’ll find another place to live.
