🇨🇦 A FRIENDLY PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT TO AMERICANS TRAVELLING ABROAD.
We’ve heard that some of you sew Canadian flags onto your backpacks to get a warmer welcome overseas.
We understand. Canadians are generally pretty well liked around the world, and we’re flattered that you’d like to borrow a little of that maple-leaf magic.
But to our friends around the world, a few tongue-in-cheek tips for spotting a counterfeit Canadian:
• We won’t ask if you speak American.
• We won’t speak loudly and slowly in American, assuming that will help you understand us better.
• Many of us speak at least two languages. Some speak three or four or more.
• We won’t look shocked when we discover your country doesn’t use dollars.
• We won’t assume everyone knows who our prime minister is.
• We know Europe isn’t a country.
• We won’t always be wearing shorts, white socks and running shoes.
• We won’t wear a baseball cap at the dinner table in a restaurant.
And one final question: Has anyone, anywhere, EVER heard of a Canadian sewing an American flag onto their backpack to get treated better?
We’re genuinely curious.
To our American friends, if you’re going to borrow our identity, at least learn how to pronounce Saskatchewan.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. 🇨🇦

Ot's better to lose with honor and integrity than to win with the stink of a litigious situation!
We are proud of our #Nati, we saw you @SuisseFoot fight like hell. In our hearts you won! ❤️🇨🇭🤍

🚨🗣️New: Breel Embolo on his controversial red card during the Argentina and Switzerland game;
“I’ve watched the incident back, and I still can’t make sense of it. They say I simulated and deserved a second yellow, but the whole sequence only exists because the referee made the wrong decision in the first place by booking Leandro Paredes. If the referee had simply given a foul without a yellow card, VAR doesn’t even get involved because it’s not a reviewable situation.”
“That’s what frustrates me the most. I’m sent off because of a chain of decisions that should never have happened. Instead of correcting a mistake, the system creates another one, and suddenly my World Cup is over. How is that fair?”
“I’ve played this game long enough to accept when I make mistakes, but I also expect the officials to be held to the same standard. In a World Cup quarter-final, one decision changes everything. My teammates had to finish the match with ten men, our game plan was destroyed, and all anyone is talking about is the referee instead of the football.”
“I’ve always supported technology when it’s used to eliminate clear and obvious errors, but today it felt like the rules were working against the spirit of the game. Fans don’t want matches decided by technical loopholes or inconsistent interpretations. They want the best team to win on the pitch. Today, I don’t feel that’s what happened.”
Readers added context they thought people might want to know

VERY proud of our #Nati to hold World champions that way. You @SuisseFoot have NOTHING to be ashamed of! ❤️🇨🇭🤍
VAR expulsion was litigious - VAR can cancel yellow card, but not add one! 🇦🇷 did not win fairly, we all saw it. Better to lose with honor 🇨🇭 than win dirty.

That's how united our #Swiss team is! In hard times they surround and support their own @SuisseFoot. ❤️🇨🇭🤍
And, even at 10 against 11, they held the World champions to a tied game during the regular time!
We are already proud of our #Nati!!! ❤️🇨🇭🤍

I LOATHE this entitled American response to anything & everything ALL OF THE TIME! I even hated it when Jack Geller #FRIENDS used the "if it weren't for us you would be speaking German" line!
25countries were already engaged in WWII before US showed up!
Perfect answer! STFU!!!
Seeing a lot of American talking faces making points similar to this in the past few days...
ALT A simple cartoon picture of an American man talking to a European man. The American man is saying "We came to Europe’s rescue in WWII, and now you won’t help us with Iran?". The European man is replying "Dude, you waited 828 days to get involved in WWII, and then only because Japan attacked Pearl Harbour. Come and talk to us at the end of 2028."

BREAKING NEWS 🚨‼️
BREAKING NEWS🚨
Pope Leo XIV rejects Donald Trump's invitation to join the ”Trump Board Of Peace” saying Trump has no right to act as the World's Police.
In Pope Leo's Words:
🗣“Mr President, what peace do you want to offer the world when your administration has fueled so many world crîses in Gaza, Ukraine, and broader diplomacy?
The laws that were set after World Wãr 2 preventing stronger countries from using force on smaller sovereign counties has been undermined.
Trump's board of peace cannot offer peace but will only serve as tool of control and intîmidation. I WILL NOT BE PART OF IT.”

BREAKING: Music legend Bruce Springsteen just released this incredible song that will be sure to piss Trump off beyond belief.
“Streets of Minneapolis”.
He wrote this song about Alex Pretti and Renée Good Saturday and recorded it yesterday.
Share it far and wide and play it as loud as you can

I met with President of Switzerland Karin @Keller_Sutter.
We discussed the most pressing issue right now – our diplomatic efforts to achieve peace. I am ready for a leaders-level meeting with the Russian side. We appreciate Switzerland’s willingness to host such a meeting. Yet we have seen no steps so far indicating that Russia wants to end the war.
We also discussed our cooperation on implementing a major cultural project and continuing our food security partnership.
Thank you for supporting Ukraine and for standing in solidarity with our people.
🇺🇦🇨🇭
Yikes, Trump's #UN speech looked painful for our Swiss Federal Councilor @ignaziocassis. 😬
I do understand that it is embarrassing that #Switzerland is mentioned in #Trump's whiney, self-righteous, victimizing, full of lies speech in front of the UN. #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace

Trump told Disney to cancel Jimmy Kimmel.
So Disney bent at the knee and canceled Kimmel.
Maybe it’s time for Democrats and Liberals to cancel Disney?
Our annual trip to Disney Orlando won’t happen.
Disney Channel was canceled yesterday.
I’m only one.
There are millions more like me.
Get this trending.

Jon Stewart once said: "Comedy doesn’t change the world, but it’s a bellwether. When a society feels under threat, comedians are who gets sent away first.”
We stand with you, @JimmyKimmel.
