This Canadian Mom’s Heartbreaking Fear For Her Country Is Making Americans Hang Their Heads In Shame


“…I just had a little boy this past year. As an American, I am terrified of the future. I am scared for my family, my neighbors, and all of the destruction happening in the US, but I also know there are still good people in my country who dissent and have a vision of fixing this. Hopelessness is what the government wants of me, and I refuse to comply with that hopelessness. How can I be pessimistic about the future when I love my son? My pessimism is a barrier to carving out a path in the world for him.”

“I also remember that fear-mongering, more than anything, is how the US got here in the first place. Fox News fear mongered an entire population over progress, and it worked. I refuse to let fear control me and cloud my judgment, so while I maintain my fear, I am not willing to let it into the driver’s seat.

Also, I love Canada. You are incredible neighbors. I pray for quick political turnover and for our government to work extremely hard in the future to regain Canadian trust and restore our positive relationship.”
