OI! OI! OI! Way to go, Australia! Special place in my heart for Down Under, so glad to see freedom and democracy staying strong! Many of us are refusing to give in to the Orange Felon and his ICE-stapo, but we recommend nobody come visit until we dump the Dumpster.

We ‘real’ Americans who believe in our democracy, warts and all, and in global unity over shared values of freedom, generosity, and compassion, are so grateful to Australia, Canada, and all the other nations that are standing against the authoritarian cancer that is trying to kill us and the principles of democracy. Thank you for holding space for America as we get through this nightmare.

On Sept 3,1939...Commonweath coutries including Canada, Australia and others declared war on Nazism along with England........it took 2 more years before America got into the fight.

Now along with us up here.....Austrialia has their elbows up.........once again we are holding the line against tyranny...waiting for the USA.

I would hope you’re joining in protests, and other signs that you’re not happy. There is lots you can do, that will hopefully make you feel stronger before 2026. This not a criticism but a nudge towards feeling some power. My love and support goes out to you. Please don’t allow this cancer to bring you down further. If you do, he wins. Canadians found strength in boycotting US products and tourism to the US. You need to find yours. Even if it’s as simple as writing and phoning your representatives. Even if they hide from you, that shows your strength and determination to make them do the right thing. These are just some ideas. You may already be doing some or all these. My point is find something that makes you feel strong. 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🐧🐧🐧

Canadian here. I feel a great sense of relief because I have faith in our new PM Mark Carney. I believe he will manage your dictator wannabe well. We here in Canada have taken the Great Orange Dictator seriously from day one. He’s doubled down on annexation even since the election here. It is not trolling and other countries he has threatened should take him seriously too.

I’m really happy for Australia as well. Hopefully, your fellow is strong as too. I knew you had elections this weekend and I was looking to find out how it went. Congratulations!

For the US people I hope things change for you soon. I will tell you that sometimes we in Canada get frustrated by the MAGA trolls. When there is too many comments it’s difficult to separate them from those who see your leader as great and powerful, ready to stomp on the Canadian freeloaders and those of you who are caring, knowledgeable and understand how he affects us even though we didn’t vote for him. Please be patient with those that can’t separate the wheat from the chaff and react with anger. My heart goes out to you!

Me too! haven't bought anything since the inauguration. I live in a rural area and have done a great deal of my shopping through Amazon (closest "stores" are at least 70 miles away, do have a local walmart 15 miles away) so for me it is a big deal to stop using them. I've told my kids I'm going to give them "experiences" like money for a pedicure or chriopractor visit for the birthdays/Christmas

not all of Walmart's millionaires agree with what the GOP is doing; our local stores treat their employees well and we rely on them in our frequent food deserts.

I hope there are some Walmart millionaires who have at least a little power who do not agree with trump. And maybe they will take some actions to curtail his cruelty and his economic policies that are just not any good for anyone. Maybe eventually big business will benefit from the tariffs as they are able to buy up smaller companies, but overall, they need consumers who have money and are willing to spend it, and if the tariffs cost the average consumer even just 15% more than what they are spending now that obviously means they have 15% less to spend (let's face it, most Americans have not been stashing away 15% of their pay checks to have for a rainy tariff year or tow so they can continue to buy at the rate they always have) so these policies hurt them. Of course they can all afford it, but since they are driven by greed and the need to have more and more and more, it will hurt them some.

And boycott the birthday celebrations the orange man has planned. A military parade PLEASE he is so delusional, he wants to mimic Putin and Kim Jung-on parades. Don’t discount the effects that voting with your feet has. Look at Tesla.

Seems like a great opportunity for another peaceful protest! One thing I admire is your ability to rally and get “big, huge, great” crowds. I bet your king is really unhappy when “you’re mean”.

Aren’t you an intelligent one! I hope you’re in therapy for your anger and mommy issues. You think foul language makes you tough don’t you? It truly doesn’t. It only shows you for the small man you are. People might take you seriously if you spoke like a grownup.

Not just a small win, decisive and historic with a clear emphasis on fairness, equality, kindness and mate ship. Importantly, the opposition leader who lost his seat, was decent and gracious in defeat.
