    Worth reading the replies for a sense of how Canadians feel about re-opening the border (also for a good refutation of the idea Canadians are polite).https://twitter.com/RepBrianHiggins/status/1279120917134741505 …

        We're polite but we won't get pushed around. I believe the PM said that after a G7 meeting. Hence, the somewhat impolite responses.
