The entire article is worth a read!!
"Today, Canada remains as deeply flawed as before in our relationship with Indigenous peoples, with our weak welfare state, with our corporate oligarchy, with our inadequate—increasingly so—plan to fight climate change, with so much more we ought to lament.
But, by God, I care about the people who live here, and I believe this is a country worth fighting for against anyone who’d roll up and sock us in the kisser, goddamn them. I will still stand up for my country and our right to decide for ourselves how we want to live."

@SnowshadowII I always understood nationalism as meaning "my country, right or wrong" whereas patriotism means "I support my country because it is doing these xyz things correctly". Don't know why the hell these have been inverted with meathead "patriots" down south practicing nationalism.
It's very annoying!!!
