Language matters.

The President is empowered by a Congress controlled by a narrow majority. Rather than the individual they have chosen, I am pissed at the Republican party. And disappointed in the American people. The guy? He was always that way and would have continued to be so at a safe distance from the levers of power without his enablers.

It is the American and especially Republican relationship with Canada that is important in this situation. Those are what endure, that person is only momentarily significant. So, where we can choose the narrative, I think that's important to focus on.

Plus I suspect he likes the sound of his own name.

I'm planning on buying canadien goods when I'm driving through half of the country this summer. I need a decent winter coat, so I'll pick up a Canada goose.

Kanuk coats are made in Montreal, Avalanche is another option made in Quebec as well.

I'll check those out. Is there a Canadian store like Dick's that sells all 3 brands?

Don't believe so, Canada Goose doesn't like the competition

I think Canada goose coats are made in Burlington now.

Their website says their core goose down products are all made in Canada.
