The mayor of a Canadian border city says the prime minister and premiers should speak to communities like his about frustration with the United States that is bubbling up over president-elect Donald Trump's proposed tariffs and comments about absorbing Canada.

"[The relationship] is deteriorating and people are saying they're not going to cross the border," said Mike Bradley, the mayor of Sarnia, Ont., which has a border crossing with Port Huron, Mich.

"I'm hearing it on a constant basis: 'We don't want to do that anymore because we're being disrespected."

Fuck Mike Bradley.

Now that that's out of the way, I completely agree with him (I think this is a first). I'm just some normal guy. I don't own a business or anything, but I have no plans to cross the border again. I've lived in SW Ontario most of my life, and I've been across the border many many times. With Trump and his cultist's xenophobia and general aggression towards anyone non-white, non-christian, non-get-on-your-knees-and-suck-him-dry, I don't feel safe over there anymore.
