Is it weird to be an American interested in Canadian news?

uh huh
so why would Canadian's informing themselves on the happenings of our neighbors be unhealthy?🤔🤔🤔🤔

He added that it’s come at the expense of Canadians consuming news about their own country’s politics.

that's not how that works, just cause I inform myself on what's happening in the US cause I also have friends there doesn't mean I'm less informed on what's happening over here, in fact:

I'd say it's the opposite as I'm more concerned and informed about the pros that's US citizens are gaining such as Right to Repair and the cons of the degradation of citizen rights that are being replicated here

Consuming anything from Fox news is def bad as you're not even consuming junk food at that point but rage bait poison

But that is what they consume.

Didn't something just come out that Alberta has a higher trump approval rating than anywhere in america or some dumb shit like that?

That doesn't happen by consuming responsible news sources. That happens from Fox non-news.

Remember when Princess Diana died? People in the US were pretty interesting in that, I thought it was weird.
