    OOH so rough - in response to previous harms done, or just because you have been instructed to have frisky feelings?

    What else can you expect from a MAGAt who worships at the altar of the Orange Jesus.

    Other than clogging up some of our interstates during the 11 months of the year that Canada is uninhabitable, I got no beef with our northern neighbors.
    They're polite, they pay in $USD instead of Monopoly money, and the ones who are wealthy enough to shelter in down here usually leave their politics up North.
    Florida probably has more gun ranges with rentals than any other state in the US, for those ex-pats who like to remember those long ago days before they were emasculated by their government.

    Cuba is an option for them.

    Florida isn't the only place they goto in the US.

    There has to be availability. We’re talking about a lot of people, and you can’t drive to Cuba.
    And you can’t assume they are all liberals, they aren’t that different from us

    Do you think the tariff only pissed off the liberals in Canada? It turned some of the Trump friendly Conservatives against him.

    Their domestic and other tourist industries are already taking advantage of the anti-US sentiment.

    time will tell. my prediction is that florida sees no loss. of course, any spots that open up will be filled by others. i can only count license plates, an imperfect strategy

    If the c-word enthralls, I recommend the STARZ TV series Black Sails. There is much else to enjoy there also.

    In 1968 at the age of 28 John Lennon said “don't trust anyone over 30”.

    Can't blame you, pal.
