Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Every Canadian I know now refuses to go across the border even to shop.
Not worth the (potential) bullshit. Besides, we have plenty of awesome stuff up here anyway, and health care for when you find that maybe trying to pet the wildlife was a bad idea.
I feel there is a story behind that…
Dozens of people get gored by Bison yearly on Catalina Island let alone Death Valley and the Mojave maiming people, well I can't imagine the Canadians are having a better time with stupid people not respecting that nature has teeth and will use them.
I’ve been to both places and have never seen Bison….
Well they're only on Catalina Island, Death Valley just hates Germans and likes making them through non bison means.
Yeah well, they should try to pet a deathclaw. Everyone needs two assholes.
You have no idea how soft and docile meese are
A Møøse once bit my sister ...
I tried to pet a mountain lion once. Do you want to see the scar?
Lol did you really? I'm game
I also can't say that I wouldn't loosely attempt. Kitty is kitty
At least you didn't have to pay out of pocket
I know some older Canadians who still spend every winter in Florida and plan to retire there. They are, of course, white and reasonably wealthy. Myself, I'd rather not live under fascism no matter how sunny the beach is.
a couple of my parents friends are snowbirds, they all sold their properties in Florida.
It should be especially to shop. Shopping means supporting their economy just like holidays do.
Visiting family or if a business depend on it I can understand. But going to USA without needing to doesn't make any sense, whether you are from Canada or Europe or most other places in the world.
Yup, unsuspecting shoppers are easy pickens for the border peops.
I had to go across once in the past 10 years. Not planning to do so again any time soon.
