    Good.  We don't need any woke tourists and left-wing indoctrination movies.

    It's also obvious that you don't travel much because Canada does far
    worse to Americans because of stupid Democrats who think they don't have
    to follow rules.


    I'd be fascinated to learn what "far worse" things Canada supposedly
    does to Americans...

    Good. We don't need any woke tourists and left-wing indoctrination
    movies.


    What is a "left wing indoctrination" movie?

    Rambo?
    The Terminator?
    Captain America?
    Hacksaw Ridge?
    Band of Brothers?
    Patton?
    Rocky?
    The Patriot?
    Flags Of Our Fathers?
    Memphis Belle?
    Pearl Harbor?
