Around ~2008 I was in a Barcelona hostel and met a guy there. He started speaking and I interrupted him excitedly...."Oh you're American!!".

He looked down...the weight of pain curdled the air around us. You could sense deep sorrow welling beneath the surface of this man. He paused for what felt like an eternity to compose himself,

He looked up with a piercing, but harrowing, stare and said "No, I'm Canadian...."

I'll never forget that moment. That sheer depth of emotion is something I haven't experienced before or since.

Did I silently murder this poor Canadian soul? How do Canadians cope with the mistaken identity?

Trudeau looks great, gives decent speeches.

Absolutely spineless and rudderless when it comes to actual decisions.

So now we're on track to get a guy that makes Mike fucking Johnson seem like a upright and well adjusted individual.
