In Canada though, we’ve seen a fairly strong repudiation of Maple MAGA and the Qonvoy movement.

Not only that, but the speed and unity behind our response to American threats has been remarkable. I haven't felt our country so united since... Maybe the early 00s? It greatly reassures me that American brain rot hasn't permeated Canada as much as I had feared.

As for the article in the OP, it also bears mentioning that the American education system(s) makes us look like a country of geniuses. At this point it's clear that the average US citizen is not fully equipped to understand the issues at hand.
