I wanted to ask this question to Americans, do you think it is ok for people who don't have a stake in USA future to discuss USA events and politics?

I personally think it should be encouraged, but I had met a very small minority of people who think it's not ok.

What do you think?

"Canada geese" is their name. It doesn't get changed into an adjective form like you would do with nationalities (Canada/Canadian).

Although in this case they're probably Canadian. So they're Canadian Canada geese.

But yeah, weather, and Trudeau
