The Canadian media is constantly bashing the US. The hive mind opinion now is that America is like the Wild West with guns a blazing - not safe. Americans didn't lock down as hard as Canadians so excess deaths from covid. Americans are just ruthless capitalists and didn't care for human life... etc. The latest from the liberal government is a travel warning to US regarding trans, gay safety. Of course it's for the red states. So over the top. Makes Canadians feel virtuous and at the same time shame those that are dissenters in Canada.
We were like the obedient child, being praised for doing as we're told and encouraged to shun our "spirited" brother. Now we're reaching adulthood and feeling oppressed by our overbearing parent. The spirited brother is now our idol, and we long to be more like them.
Canadians were on their high horses for a long time.
I won't partake in the insults, but over the years I've been to many parts of Canada, and there was a big holier than thou attitude about Americans.
