A long standing monument to peace, unity and friendship between #Canada and #America has now been attacked by America, and shut down. The library that straddles both countries, a show of trust and respect, has banned Canadians from the US side, destroying the trust and friendship between our two countries

Canada should immediately demolish the half of the library that encroaches on our sovereign territory. If the building collapses, so be it. Not our problem. #cdnpoli #USpol

@cjmoorehead While they’re at it, they should frog march every US official involved in airport pre-screening out of Canada.

No, being constructive would be far more useful. Drag readings of banned books, support all the things they're trying to demolish already.

@tim_lavoie For that, we’d need to build another entrance, because the main one’s on the US side. However, there might be an emergency exit we could use. Bring on the drag queens!

@gparenti By design. Trump is trying to provoke a response. Reciprocate, ban entry to Americans on the Canadian side of the building. Have border patrol secure the line if necessary

@Lazarou time to put all the forbidden books on the Canada side, along with "celebrating DEI", "Black Lives Matter" and "Celebrating LGBT+" exhibitions. no. It would radically transform the Photoshop the next time a US politician went there to make a statement. And of course, trying to take down the exhibitions would be an attack on Canadian Sovereignty.

this is such insane bullshit, and all before I got to visit a place I didn’t even know about. Did the US forget what happened in 1814? Stop fucking with Canada y’all.

The level of shear infantile pettiness of the current administration is absolutely immeasurable.

A pox on those that empowered them, and continue to do so.

@MelvilleSpence oh, we're a fucking embarrassing stain on history, to be sure.

On behalf of the Americans fighting for equality, kindness, and open borders—I'm so sorry for what our country is doing.

And to the Americans who aren't fighting for those things—what the fuck is wrong with you?! Do you want Nazis? Because this is how you get Nazis!

@alice @MelvilleSpence we'll be right there with you to help rebuild when you get the chance. Canadian government is trying to target red states and their manufacturing as much as possible because they're fully aware of where trump nuts are. Hopefully the damage to dem supporters is minimal 😐

What are they even trying to accomplish here? Seems like a great opportunity for binational mass civil disobedience. To bring attention to it if nothing else. Most Americans, especially MAGAats will never hear about this.

Civil disobedience generally implies an understanding that you are breaking a law and that you may get arrested or whatever.

But i know some who’d prefer getting snatched over giving the whitehouse another 1814.

This is the same place one of those Republican shitheads stood in a week or two ago, hopping back and forth across the line, giggling "America! 51st state! America! 51st state!".

We should have grabbed her when on our side of the line and booked her for illegally entering the country.
