Donald Trump’s been trolling people’s health care in Canada and this father’s A++ response is the only one you need
Donald Trump wants Greenland, he wants the Panama Canal, and he’d quite like Canada as his 51st state.
And it was the last of these particular Trumpian obsessions which we turn to here as the back again US president did his best to troll all things Canadian, including – right at the very end of this trademark tirade – its health care.

And it prompted no end of totally on-point replies …
This is so fucking embarrassing.

I will never understand how 77 million Americans voted for this buffoon

Unhinged. To the nth degree.

But none of them went quite so viral, or were quite so heartfelt, as this one.
My son had brain surgery that gave him his life back. In the US, the bill would have been at least $500,000. Here in Canada, we paid $0. We Canadians don’t want any part of your con-man games, Mr. Trump. https://t.co/U0ZS9RHP5t

Beautiful (and beautifully put).
Not that everyone got the point he was making, to no-one’s great surprise anywhere.
The ultimate con is you thinking you didn't pay for it. You have been conned so well, that the people who confiscate and abuse so much of your wealth, have you championing such theft and malfeasance.
INCREDIBLE!!!

So, the doctors worked for free? And nobody paid for the power bill? The medical equipment? The ancillary staff? That's pretty cool. Tell me more about this society that operates without money.

Why is it a good thing that other people’s taxes paid for your sons super expensive surgery? Why? Government forces people to pay the tax, coercion, and then distributed to others. I do not understand why that is good or positive or beneficial.

We’re with this person.
Why would any Canadian want to be an American. Canada is rated as a top five nation in the world. USA doesn’t even make it in the top twenty. Doesn’t sound like home of the brave and land of the free to me.
