Canada having conservative people that don't like the Liberal Party is the result of US politics, and you need to declare this to "non-Canadians not aware"?

Sounds like you're the one mired in hateful, the-other-side-is-evil, American-style rhetoric. Give your head a shake.

I don't think the influence is as strong as you think it is...

The Canadian media giants partially funded by Trudeau's media payments did a great job of over-representing extreme fringes when they were covering COVID protests, and it shows in comments like yours.

Lol, tell me you didn't even look at the linked article without saying that. Ironically, it's a CBC article.

sure but that doesn't discount the rise of far right conservatism in canada due to influence of US politics, and it's not just the media that notices them.
