Rise of Canadian National Pride
Recent political tensions with the United States have sparked a surge of national pride among Canadians. Expressions of this newfound patriotism are evident at rallies, where the phrase 'elbows up' signifies a readiness to defend the country. The situation is largely attributed to the leadership of U.S. President Donald Trump, with many Canadians feeling threatened by his policies, particularly tariffs that impact Canada’s economy. This sense of vulnerability has motivated Canadians to celebrate their identity and support local products over American goods.
