Don’t know why Canadians are united in saying “ELBOWS UP ” in retaliation to President Donald J Trump? Watch these 2 short videos and get caught up
Now that you know what it references, take a look at who started the trend.
Canadians may be known worldwide for our polite society,but get us riled up, and we’re not so nice and polite.
This may be only a trade war thus far, but it’s already united us from sea to sea, and that’s dangerous because we’ve already boycotted products from the USA, including food and alcohol with many stores putting the Maple leaf to connot products that are Canadian. Alcohol from the USA is off shelves country wide. Canadians are not traveling to the USA and instead opting for Mexico or Cuba, where our dollar is appreciated. The real estate market in the USA is being flooded with homes for sale in Arizona, Florida, and other sunny areas as Canadians are vacating their winter homes. Not to mention the stock market. Canadian investors are getting out of US stocks in favour of investing in our own companies.
Canada is ready for a fight. If this becomes another type of war, Canada will get creative if history tells us anything. In World War 1,Canada gave until it hurt, literally.

Let’s not forget about the war of 1812 and the last time the USA tried to annex Canada repeatedly, and we only had our First Nations warriors and the British backing us up. Now, we will have the European Union, the Commonwealth, and the NATO countries on our side. Canada isn’t afraid to fight, and we fight dirty.
I wouldn’t blame the US armed forces if they decided to go against the Draft Dodger and chief and refuse to invade. After all of our hockey hullabaloo, we know that we are great at fighting on ice skates. With a tip of the hat to Gordie Howe.
