    People really underestimate just how dominated Canada is by American influence.

    Our social media platforms are American-owned, a huge share of what we watch on TV is U.S. media and most of the big online influencers people follow are American.

    Even our political discourse gets filtered through U.S. alt-left and alt-right media ecosystems. Some of our leaders even show up at US political events.

    On top of that, our military and intelligence communities are tightly linked with the U.S. and often end up rehashing American viewpoints.

    Of course our economy, jobs, and even personal relationships (friends and family) are tied to America.

    I don’t think most people realize how pervasive American influence actually is in Canada.
