#canada’s main export is insufferable smugness

Whenever Canada isn’t depicted in post apocalyptic dystopia fiction, it’s doing a completely different type of post apocalyptic dystopia than the States.

If America’s doing Mad Max, Canada’s doing 1984. If America’s doing The Hunger Games, Canada’s doing The Walking Dead. If aliens come down to Earth and blow up the White House, the machines take over Canada and blow up Parliament Hill.

Both are equally bad and miserable to live in, but they’re just different enough for the Canadians to feel condescendingly smug.
