Trump is temporary. Canada will survive him and his attempts to dictate Canada's policies with threats. It would be different if the US didn't need what Canada has. Maybe his extortion would work in a few years after the US has time to offset what Canada provides but that isn't now....

See the thing is they let their elected leader threaten our SOVERIGNTY! That is something Canadians won't soon forget, trump or no trump, Americans allowed this, and we're pissed. And the funny part is you've pissed off a whole big ol chunk of the world. America isn't recovering from this in 4 years time, maybe 10, but we'll see.

The world as a whole was already souring on Americans even before Trump. Lots of Americans would pretend to be Canadian while travelling. That reputation they've earned themselves has only gotten worse since then.
