I am Canadian and visited NYC. Surprisingly, every person I asked for help with directions was super friendly. Great city! You should go there!
Great to hear! Would love to visit NYC soon!
Well, long time / permanent New Yorkers (either by birth or transplant - and survived / thrived) are so nice, kind, helpful … because we know how hard / tough it is … yet we always welcome kindness, diversity, challenge, talents, grit, innovation, collaboration, inclusion etc etc. You can be in the same subway train or biking together next to actors, billionaires, academics, murderers / criminals … and posers.
There are billionaires who dress up like broke / humble Joe Schmo and there are broke ass posers / interns etc etc who wear $$$$$ branded clothing.
NYC (the five borough) is not USA … it is a country in itself (figuratively speaking). @makethatchange
What lol 😂
I need to travel with you lol 😂
Same experience.
''Surprisingly'' why u say that aha
I’ve never noticed any real difference between customer service in the US and Canada, to the point where I would mention it.
Pre-Covid - grocery stores were open til 10pm or even midnight. Now they usually close at 10pm.
I’m in vancouver.
This is one of the big changes post covid, here in Victoria we no longer have a 24 hour grocery store. It's not a big deal for me but obviously some people live on a different schedule to me
I have dual USA/Canadian citizenship and know both countries very well. First, the USA has incredible opportunity and upside but you have to know how to navigate the system. I grew up in the USA but my dual-citizen kids grew up in Canada. I could go back to live in the USA no problem but I doubt my kids could handle it. That said, I live in quite possibly the best Canadian city (Victoria, BC) and it is very very safe, peaceful, and pleasant; so it’s unlikely I will be moving back to the gun-loving USA since for me it would be crazy to leave Victoria.
I'm an American that moved to Montreal back in February 2020. I experienced a lot of culture shock (or at least cultural/linguistic differences) like, of course, French is everywhere all the time. I also noticed a huge difference in the experience of driving- roads are much more narrow and filled with obstacles here, everything closes much more early, and the sense of urgency when completing a necessary task is virtually non-existent. I love it here, but there were some things to get used to lol. I think that Fast Food tastes 100x better in the US.
I also think that there's a big cultural difference in terms of being polite (Canada) vs. being friendly (USA). People here in Canada are very polite, but I wouldn't necessarily say friendly. Oddly enough, I've found myself more naturally trusting of French Canadians vs. English Canadians as I trust that the French Canadians will be more direct with me and I'll never have to wonder if they like me or not, whereas English Canadians are more likely to be passive aggressive or polite before being forced to be direct with someone.
But with that being said, being born and raised in the US, I'd really have to recommend you try visiting Chicago, and maybe some of the surrounding area by car. The reason isn't necessarily as much about specific things to do, but rather more about the cultural experience of the United States. Anywhere in the Midwest is going to give you that stereotypical "American" vibe. If you drive from Toronto to Chicago, you'll see (driving on the highways through Michigan and Indiana) road signs that say, "HELL IS REAL, REPENT NOW BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!" followed by a road sign that says, "FIREWORKS AT EXIT 54", followed by a road sign that says, "ABORTION KILLS A BABY EVERY 30 MINUTES", followed by a road sign that says, "LION'S DEN XXXOTIC ADULT STORE AT EXIT 55" (you get my point lol).
You'll see the best and the worst parts of American culture in the small towns and big cities of the Midwest. I think it paints a more accurate picture of what the US is as a country vs. what it wants to be seen as. And in some ways, especially when you're in Michigan, it's like an alternate universe of, "What would Ontario be like if it was American instead of Canadian?"
If you drive further north into Michigan you can reach Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore which is a really pleasant surprise for this region of the continent. Nobody would ever expect to see such massive sand dunes in the Midwest brushed up against one of the Great Lakes.
Thank you for sharing all this! Would definitely like to experience such a drive! Well noted 🙏
This is very well-put. Sleeping Bear is ridiculously beautiful. Also, re: the people, I would say English Canadians are very bland and interesting whereas Quebecois are some of the most fun-loving people you'll ever meet. I would choose Quebec any day over anywhere in English Canada.
i live in michigan. sleeping bear dunes is freaking awesome
Toronto here, on roads, California and Nevada don't get frost which heaves the roads. Here in Toronto we have numerous grocery stores that are open 24x7.
I would recommend Colorado.
Have you visited British Columbia since moving here? The west is very different from eastern Canada. All of Canada s beautiful but BC is exactly like the license plate says. From the south coast to the west coast, to the beautiful Okanagan valley. If you haven’t,I hope you get the chance to come visit the west. 🙂
Thanks a lot guys for sharing…u just made my day thank u
thanks for watching! ❤ Have a great rest of the weekend!
@@MakeThatChange I would recommend Toronto as it offers government incentives and variety of people including those in the states come visit Toronto. There is less crime rates and everything is in the same spot when taking the bus without vehicle and is like a village!
Few years ago I hiked a park at the north end of Powell River British Columbia where giant trees still grow, fantastic experience no matter where you see it up close.
Thank you so much for such a great video 🤩
You are so welcome!
Very interested Anna, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
In my traveling experience l have met plenty of polite, as well as friendly Americans.
Great vídeo about your vacation in The U S my friend Anna. Thank you so much !!!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you ☺️
@@MakeThatChange I guess it depends on the people vs the country. I was in the states and if you look at a person the wrong way they shoot you since guns are in their constitution. I don't know the ratio when it comes to people with their devices and not looking at others. However I'm guessing it's every area however twenty percent might not be in their devices in the states which is higher than Toronto. Homeless issues and inflation is the same in any area, Toronto or the states. Canadians are more afraid or polite and Americans are more rude and direct. However if you get to know any person regardless which area they are in, it is perhaps the same!
I recommended you visit Maine. I was born and raised here in Maine and find it to encompass a lot of kind, down to earth people. The natural landscape is amazing no matter where you are in the state; western mountains like the White’s or Bigelow to Baxter state park in the central region, or rocky coastline like Bar Harbor. Great small fishing villages and Portland, our largest city, is currently experiencing a foodie and art movement! Art is everywhere and there is a new quirky restaurant coming in seemingly every week! Road suck though so be prepared!
California is beautiful and I agree with you in that Americans are friendly and helpful, all my interactions with them when visiting anywhere in the US have been like that. And they were kind and willing to share information with obvious visitors. As a Canadian it made me realize that we here are more reserved than that with visitors, at least that is my experience with travelling in Canada! (Of course other Canadians seeing I am a hoser are probably thinking "You should know how to get around here already!") Anyway one thing I will disagree with you about American roads, at least some in California, and that is the lack of decent guard rails! It was scary!!
Interesting observation on Canadians being more reserved, totally see it! We will pay attention at the guard rails next time. Stay safe! 🙏
loved your video... many around the world feel the same
Thanks for watching & have a great weekend!
Great video! Enjoyed hearing your perspective on America. It really is such a diverse country, but the top cities I would recommend visiting are New Orleans, Portland (Oregon), and New York. All three have completely different flavors of America.
Great video 🎉
Try New York and let us know your opinion 😊
Thank you! Will do NYC soon!
I'd say visiting Washington D.C. and maybe making a comparison with the peer capital of Canada, Ottawa would be an interesting video. Exploring the Virginia-Washington-Maryland area might be a worth it to have an idea of South meets North culture in the USA.
That is an excellent idea! Thank you 💯
American here and living in Los Angeles, I'm glad you guys enjoyed your stay here ( except for the homeless problem which is getting out of control). Great job driving! 1 week is not enough to appreciate CALIFORNIA . I suggest a second visit. I have to say " the grass is always greener on the other side" We have family in North Vancouver, that we visit 3-4 times a year and i'm always excited to visit and enjoy British Columbia in the 7-10 days that we're there. My suggestion for the next state, if you guys have never been.. is Hawaii.
you're so right - grass is always greener. On the flip side, travelling also may make you appreciate your own home more too!. What parts of California would you suggest to explore next? Anastasia is a big fan of California.
@@MakeThatChange next visit, try 1.Solvang , a danish village in California 2. Hearst Castle 3. Cambria,CA which is cute town hidden among the Monterey Pines and 4. Los Robles ( vineyards, wine tasting etc). :)
Thank you, well noted!
I think most (not all) homeless people are either lazy or drug addict and they suffer the consequences of their own actions.
Our precious 90s childhood, sad but true. ❤
Consumerism here make want back to Europe...
You begin to appreciate little 90s moments and Europe a little more, for sure!
@@MakeThatChange Yes it is, experience and comparison get you the better real life view!
100%
I really appreciate watching your video girls, well documented as always;) I’ve been to Florida once and the first impression I had was positive in terms of some elements that you mentioned about American lifestyle, roads are large, huge spaces, people were nice and smiling easily diverse culture and last but not least fast food was tasty especially real burgers and bagels at the airport. you feel good vibes and people there are “caliente” maybe thanks to the presence of a great community of Latinos mami! 😊 a part of the windy weather in Miami I had a nice trip and I noticed that the American dream could be true at that time in the 90s . I’m from a country who was the First Nation that recognized the USA so maybe the strong relationship we have makes me always attracted to move one day there. God bless USA 😎bless you 🤩
God bless you!
One thing I like about North America is : most of the public washroom is free, in Europe,they charge you everywhere for using the public washroom
Facts!
I’m from Los Angeles and we do have downsides. Yes, there are a lot of homeless people. It’s not a perfect world, but I am glad you liked LA. Come back anytime and explore more!
Will do! Thank you!
I grew up in the US. I am working to transition to move to Canada currently. Depends what you are looking for to do in America. I have visited over 30 states and each state has its own culture or vibe. I think you would enjoy Florida, New York, Washington D.C., Texas, North Carolina and Georgia off the top of my head. If you want something slower paced for the most part South Carolina, Indiana, Ohio, Alabama, Tennessee are states that can be slower paced as examples. I also enjoyed Arizona. It really depends on what you are looking for but those are some states you could look into depending on what you want.
Wow so many interesting options, thank you for advice!😊
I live in Texas and got PR through express entry.
Totally agree with your comment, I have traveled everywhere in the US, the nature is beautiful and they have some interesting looking town. Having said that,one of my favorite states is South Carolina. Charleston must be the most picturesque and European town there is in north America.
I think USA is a Super country. The 50 states are like 50 different country united under one flag 🇺🇸
@@HenryNothingthe un United States
Highways in NYC area are confusing, especially Long Island Expressway and roads in NJ near NYC.
Fancy, Aramis Merlin was a while ago for his viewers at that shopping mall and I recognized it 😂
Thanks btw for that great insight view that you gave us!
Want to go there so desperately, I'm jealous 😅
And yes, they are really capitalistic ... btw, you can really gain from time at the stonk market, learned it from Uncle Bruce ☺️
💯☺️
I would recommend you visit New Orleans, amazing architecture, culture, nightlife, and food. And taking a boat on the bayou and seeing alligators is spectacular. I also really liked San Francisco, but I heard it's a dystopian hellscape right now. Manhattan is a must see too, there is no other city like it.
The roads are bad in Canada because of freeze/thaw in the winter.
yes totally! on top of that it sometimes feels like road engineering is a bit weak in Canada. exits or lanes are confusing, interchages are sometimes borderline dangerous - for example signage is posted too close to the exit, or loops and turns are too sharp. We've felt a lot more safe driving in the US.
So, why roads in ND much better and climate same like Manitobian?
@@MakeThatChange Poor engineering, cheap materials and low quality labor, and many other factors getting me confused every day, my friends are laughing at my pictures of roads and truck stops
@@MakeThatChangeroad infrastructure is much better in Canada.
I live in Montreal, which probably has the worst roads in North America. I drive 1 hour into Vermont and the roads are close to perfect, so it’s not the weather. Montreal infrastructure had been controlled by the Mafia with the complicity of the city for decades (look up Charbonneau commission). You make more money making a road that needs to be repaired in 6 months than one that lasts for 10 years.
The Black Bear! I used to go there as a kid all the time when I lived in California!
❤️
Just going across the border to Buffalo, the people are friendly. Though I do find Toronto and Southern ON peeps are friendlier when they come and shop in Buffalo. Time you came down to Buffalo and checked out my adopted hometown.. And not just for shopping. We have museums and architecture and history that can't necessarily be found anywhere else. As a matter of fact, we have recently reopened the Albright Knox, now known as AKG Museum. Delaware Park is worth seeing as is the Buffalo Zoo. But the biggest thing in my opinion is Canalside and the waterfront on Lake Erie-that was the brainchild of my friend's mother who worked for the city of Buffalo government. And if you like a Greenwich Village atmosphere, you should check out Elmwood Ave. My adopted hometown is open to Canadians and I hope you come on down.
the roads in those warm places do not get ripped apart by mother nature in a frozen frenzie every year.. frost heaves, snow plows anti freezing chemicals..etc...
Great point!
Thank you for coming to America.
Since im a trucker.. Its had been relieving crossing border into us from Manitoba in the winter. Can expect seasoned wide roads in US. Visit countryside. Guarantee different experience 😅
👍🏻👍🏻
Exactly, the machine is working and very few escape it. Fortunately, I am one of the very few. In Disney I just bought the base ticket, and I am happy I did that because every attraction was a 30 to 60 min wait. After the 3rd one I left. I decided to go to a Disney World that was NOT in the US and did it outside of Paris, France. It was amazing. There was an average number of people. Wait was less than 10 min every time and the prices were about half of what I "experienced" in LA. So, please, go to France :).
Yes, when you don't have something and it as rare as the the desert sand in the middle of the Russian Taiga, then you consider it super valuable, regardless of its true qualities.
The Seneca Niagara Casino in Niagara Falls, NY-the Indigenous Seneca Nation allows smoking.
I get 5 weeks vacation and six floating holidays from where I work and we observe 6 US holidays. But I built that up over 20 years of service to my co. And as hard as I work I do find time to play or take care of personal business.
That’s great to hear! 🙌
You made it to Black Bear Diner. I love that chain! 🤤
❤️
If you say USA is expensive, I'm curious about what one would say about the European countries like Switzerland, France. I've heard that water is not free
A lot of my fellow Canadians live in Los Angeles. Many of them working in Hollywood, be it actor, producer etc. Welcome to my adopted country.
❤️
Everyone is always nice and friendly no matter where you go on the planet when your a beautiful Caucasian woman thats universal thank's for sharing your trip with us
"Karen" meme is a beautiful caucasian woman too, but she's a meme despite her looks😊
Thank you for watching!
American here -- I agree with Anastasia in that California is not at all a typical US state. It's arguably the most liberal and one of the wealthiest states to visit, which is why LA has such a staggering volume of tourism. Same with NYC -- these are absolutely necessary cities to visit for any visitor looking for the best that America has to offer. However, if you only look at the big cities you miss out on nearly half of the population and their individual culture. I would propose smaller cities, for their more **RELATIVELY** nuanced impressions of American life. Cities like Phoenix AZ, Seattle WA, Atlanta GA, Miami FL, Boston MA, Washington DC, Chicago IL -- this gives you a balanced view of life in the major regions of the country (West, South, Northeast and Midwest) and you'll be able to see quite clearly how different life is for **AGAIN... RELATIVELY** rural citizens based on their geographical region.
Thank you for the insight! Would really love to visit Boston, heard it’s old city is beautiful
My only inconvenience about the US is that they use the imperial system compared the metrics adopted most of the world including Canada. And I know in Canada they mixed both systems a little bit in some cases. But switching to full imperial could take a long long time to adapt.
About the people part, I presume the rude stereotypes could be from NYC rather than California you have visited, as both East-West coast cultures are drastically different. More over, if you interested in history and US heritage, I may suggest visiting Boston or the US Northeast.
Thank you! Boston is coming up to the top of our list to visit next 🙏
You should have gone to Laguna Beach and tbe coves, so beautiful there.
Next time!
Try Texas 😊
I’m from Suriname 🇸🇷 but a US citizen by birth-Had a hard time adjusting in California but Texas made me feel more at home 🏡
Glad you find a home that feels like home 🙏
Team Pepsi - Americans are absolute masters at marketing. Nobody comes even close to them. It's all those little things they have developed over the yrs that make them so good at selling anything to everybody. As I said - MASTERS of MARKETING
⭐️⭐️⭐️
The roads are better in the southern states than in Canada because they don't have freeze thaw cycles.
I think to get a real perspective. You should take a trip to Detroit.
Or any other City or place that is known to be a tourist destination.
Glad you visited US and made this positive video. I lived in Canada at a young age and was raised to believe that US is inferior. Actually visiting the US opened my eyes. Referencing your "ugly truth" video, US corporations do have immigrants at top positions: Google, Microsoft, IBM. This capitalist/performance based culture is what makes US so successful. I recommend visiting NYC+Washington DC (free Smithsonian museums) next, or Florida (Key West+Everglades air boat).
People are suggesting the obvious big cities like Miami (booze, beaches, anything sleazy) Chicago (overrated and windy) or NYC (probably close to Toronto in terms of lifestyle) but if you really want a more accurate American experience, please try Atlanta first and then Dallas. Those cities have everything like Chicago but also have conservative culture intertwined with the urban experience. You might not like it (I know I don't) but it is definitely a part of American culture most foreigners don't experience and I think it show you a very different part of America.
I would have suggested go to Dallas or Houston first, but Texas might be too much of a culture shock for you guys when you are new to America haha. If you thought portions are bigger in California, you would be shocked to see what happens in Texas. There is a saying that everything is bigger in Texas (food portions, roads, buildings, homes, people lol). Especially Houston, considering how much bigger it is than LA and how it can take 1.5 hours to drive from side of the city to another.
Try Taxes, florida, South Carolina, Georgia.
Lol, I actually avoid US cities like the plague. (I'm a Canadain who wants to leave Canada) and bought a cottage in the US and go weekly. However the ex-burbs and suburbs are the people are great.
6:19 haha I find this hilarious because I wish I could feel what she felt for the harry potter world (not a fan of theme parks) but when I see those prices I am definitely the first to say NO THANKS. Sometimes I hate having to do it but it’s for the exact same reasons.
Like we bought our daughters a $40 wand that they broke in like two months. They don’t care but man that thing was costly.
From a fellow Michael Jackson fan, you came very close with that Billy Jean dance ❤
Thank you, but no one can come close to the King❤️
I would say that your observations and comments are similar to what I've experienced in the US myself, having visited several States. I generally find Americans in the South and West Coast to be very nice and easy going people (as long as you don't mention politics!). Driving around is very easy. Weather and scenery are usually great. On the downside, I find that it's hard to eat a balanced meal, mostly because potions are so enormous. I understand the concept of "getting your money's worth", but that just makes people overeat and end up obese. They should really scale down on the size of potions! Other topic that you touched upon are all the money making schemes they come up with. Personally, I tend to avoid all of the "exclusive" or "VIP" branded services, they're usually overpriced and you don't get much more above the base fare. Also, watch out for the charges on restaurant and hotel bills, they often add "resort fees", "health benefits" and the such. IMO those should be banned as the hotels and restaurants should pay for the wellness of their employees.
Washington and Oregon are diverse and beautiful! Washington has a rain forest, mountains, oceans and…kind of desert like areas
Thank you’ heard so many great things about these two! Duly noted
Are you two moving to america now ?
not for now, but having a vacation home down south there would be a really good idea - but we can keep dreaming (or working hard) 😁
@MakeThatChange I hope all your hard work pays you your reward you deserved. Stay happy and blessed 🙌🏼
thank you kindly Abdullah! Wishing you the same, bless!
@@MakeThatChange if anyone can make it is you two, homes are definitely cheaper down south.
Maybe when you retire and sell the Toronto home you can swap it.
Lets go to Louisiana. I'm from Montreal and I felt in love with this outstanding state. Much less about money and work and truly about local food, local music and so festivals and parades non-stop! A one of a kind state truly different from any others. Louisiana is living for its own peculiar culture celebration. And New Orleans on a large scale, is the most beautiful city of the US architecturally speaking. People are as nice and friendly!
Louisiana is the Quebec of the US, some towns still speak French there. A lot of expelled people from Quebuec moved there. Also the sings are bilingual.
But, i disagree with New Orleans, it’s too much of a party city, hence, dirty.
I would say Charleston, SC is an extremely clean version of NOLA.
I strongly recommend you check out NY State and not just NYC and Long Island please. We have the Finger Lakes, Western NY including Buffalo, North Country and the Adirondacks. If you are still living in Toronto, there is no reason why you should not be able to check it out. And a specific constructive suggestion: Check out Women's RIghts Museum in Seneca Falls, NY. It is located in the FInger Lakes Region of NY.
Thank you for the recommendations! Noted.
I say visit Mexico next! Like CDMX, Monterrey, etc; I feel like those two would remind you of the nature and CDMX is the largest city in North America. When I'm in Monterrey they have mountains also, and with the tropical climate the agriculture scene is so good there, we get a lot of fruits imported from there to the US, such as avocados. The culture there is very friendly as well, and you'll be safer than people may say.
Los Angeles and Las Vegas are very friendly! A lot of them are in the entertainment or service industry so they probably need to be. If you come to Texas, or any other city they're not so friendly. I live near Dallas and the people here suckkk.
I did notice the roads in Ontario and Quebec to be a bit more rundown , but I blame that on the snow I guess.
I live in Texas, it’s also a beautiful state and I am gay, it is gay friendly and not what they make you think.
Austin is beautiful and so is San Antonio’s river walk.
I hope you get to visit one day, plenty of cheap direct flights from Toronto.
America is no longer the "American dream", but still you can have different options where to live: from hot to cold and from cheap to expensive and, in all those places, you will find job
Haaaa, also portions of food are big because there is quite a lot of obese people
Well, you should go, Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas, Florida and then go to the northern states and compare again, very different the people, the labdscape, the rods, the food, the climate, the taxes and the cost of living....and the labor force
Thank you! So much to see and experience there.
I’ve been in the LA airport it’s a zoo. Just like Chicago O’Hare airport. Sadly all touristy places across the world know how to trick us into spending more than we should. Roads in Michigan where I live are crap. As soon as you get into Ohio you notice the difference way better. What we need to realize is how truly lucky we are to live in North America rather it’s Canada 🇨🇦 or the USA 🇺🇸. People flock to both countries for a better life.
Lucky we are, indeed! Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
@@MakeThatChange you’re welcome! Applied for my first ever United States 🇺🇸 passport! A friend of mine who plays football in Winnipeg is hoping to get me out to Winnipeg for a game need the passport book to fly to Canada 🇨🇦
Hope the game is a blast!
@@MakeThatChange thank you appointment at the post office on October 24th! My mom is getting it for me for Christmas! It will take about 8-11 weeks for my passport to arrive! Not in a rush to for it to arrive cause I’ll have to wait till next season to go see a game!
magnificant -> magnificent
thank you.
U should visit New York City. It is an entirely different world when u compare California to NY. The change would be interesting to u, I bet.
we visited NYC just 2 months ago. A piece on it is coming soon!
Indeed! Loud, Rude and Aggressive, they’re - Your experience as a Russian Canadian meeting nice folks in America won’t change that for me - But America is a rich country compared to Canada, no question!
Visit Ohio and Pennsylvania I heard those states have European influence in a way. Don't forget about New York City and Chicago even though they are not in those states.
Life in major cities of the USA is much different than the rest of the country. I loved in Dallas and portland but hated staying in California. I felt they are too wild n money oriented
We've heard great things about Portland!
Pepsi!
💪
I saw you were so mad at yourself for that $100 wand hahaha. Happens to us all don't justify it lol 😉
🤡
I guess it depends on the people and not the country. Crime rate is higher in the states
Yup, people in the states are friendlier and more fun.
I am team Water, I don't want to get cancer :)..
Isn’t Canada more peaceful to live daily life than the USA?
You'd say so! But it also depends on where in the US you're living too, some say that some cities, especially in the suburbs are just as peaceful as the US ( if you're not involved in politics and other controversial interests/hobbies)
north carolina
…. that’s USA😮
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Roads in Canada are worst! As a truck driver I hate roads here, road service is worst and I traveled through 30+ countries in Europe and I know what I'm saying!
OMG! that's horrible - drive safe out there! ❤
@@MakeThatChange Thanks girls! Can't wait to get my us visa and traveling down south only.
all the best! hope you get your CA passport soon too to not have to worry about visas!

we're planning a trip there in 2024!
I’m not 💯 % sure if you are serious 🧐 or are you mocking 😂

it is the capitalistic machine at work

maybe one day! 🤗
I’ve not been to the U.S. since before Trump and have no desire to go back any time soon. Europe is far more appealing.
Totally get it! We miss Europe!
As an American, we are NOT all trumpers. But…I’d love to visit Europe too! I’ve been dreaming of it for at least 10 years, and during the trump years I would dream of moving away from here.
During the Trump years I wanted to move to Canada!@@ariannecollman1972
Please don’t judge the United States on Los Angeles 😂 that place is garbage
This comment is 100% true! Don't base the country on just Los Angeles. It IS garbage. Trust me. I'm from there.
