And I saw a report that snow pack in the Sierra is 0 right now, it should be at 5ft at that specific spot. They said only 18% of normal snow amounts this whole wet season This is a disaster primed and ready

Not already! I read in my local newspaper (northernmost coast of California) that the snowpack is 18% of what it should be. It seemed like we had so much rain this winter. But alas, it wasn't enough. So the wildfires in the summer and fall will be huge. Luckily, they don't reach the coast up here and redwood trees aren't very combustible.

We are absolutely helping lol. We're cutting trade but we're still helping them when they're in need.

It would be in fact non Canadian a few years ago, but it’s now the majority sentiment. You can thank the current US administration for that. Good luck 👋

I get where you’re coming from but after all the shit they’re putting us through I just cannot come to terms with it. It’s a level of disrespect, complete disregard for the rule of law and backstabbing that I never thought I would see in my lifetime. But I respect your opinion.
