    Even though this is just another tax on Americans, it’s time for Canada to stop sending fire assistance to the US. I live in BC and we deal with smoke coming from Washington State every summer.

      As a Washingtonian, I’m disappointed that you don’t share allegiance to our region the way so many of us do. British Columbia means more to many of us than some random American state elsewhere does. Not many of us would be in favor of dropping support of and cooperation with British Columbia even if the Canadian government was being belligerent.

      Neighbors come first.

      Also, we get your smoke every summer as well. That’s part of why we’re in this together.

      I hate that Trump is using this as a political attack but I’d be pretty bummed out if we stopped helping people in need.
