A place to ask Canadians questions and get answers. The most obvious questions would be about Canada, but you can ask about pretty much anything; news, current events, society, etc

I don't intend this as an AMA format, but can entertain some. Rules:

  1. Be civil and act in good faith.
  2. No trolling.

If you walked down the street and saw a Canadian wearing a "51st State" shirt, what would be your reaction(s), and what would you do if anything at all?

I would be enraged. I wouldn't do anything except be enraged, because I'm a law-abiding person and spend a lot of effort remaining that way.

I would want to react in certain ways, but it's just not worth it.

I've seen a couple of trucks recently on my commute with trump flags/signs. It makes me exceptionally angry. I have to concentrate hard on remaining calm. It's a genuine challenge.
