As the good brother (lackey) of the US, Canada feels it its obligation to join the fanfare, so they now stage protests in the city hall of Toronto for the sudden death of a black woman, whose parents said she was pushed off the high building by local police.

Noted writer Arthur Hailey described such unequal and snobbish relation of the two countries in his novel "In High Places", so you can get this book to have a read, if you are interested.

This book is very interesting and shows us the dark and dirty side of the political world of the West during the Cold War, but form this book we can still know the current world, because as you know, the world remains the same even with so many people changed.
In this book, Canada was asked to share the risk that is to be caused by the nuclear bomb threat from the USSR to the US, and it was asked to move its population and industry to Alaska (at that time it was not the territory of the US). The prime minister of Canada was trying to be a traitor to his motherland if he agreed to sign the contract to carry out the operation.
Canada is actually a pathetic country that is unable to tell good from bad, truth from lies
