Weird that we have more solidarity with the EU than Mexico.

I'm Mexican and I'm baffled that Canada is trying to distance itself from us. I sincerely don't get why we're constantly being excluded.

Its very frustrationg. We should be taking notes from you guys, not pushing you away.

As a Canadian, I am confused by that also. Mexico would be a lot safer if the US had more stricter gun laws, and didn't smuggle them into Mexico.

Are we? That's disappointing.

Shared language and cultural background goes far. But it's definitely time we strengthen ties beyond that

Edit: why downvote for this? I suspect I misrepresented something

Re: downvotes

could be that only 44% of EU citizens understand English, and most don't really share a cultural background with us

Yeah, that's a pretty good point.

Guess it all comes down to racism then :/
