So my point is that things are just as fucked there as they are here. Educated v. not educated, urban v. rural divide, white assholes etc.
And Quebec has always been slightly fucked up. In Quebec City at least, they tend to like Americans better than English Canadians, so you'll likely experience no issues at all there. Montreal is pretty chill overall, so I wouldn't worry there. And Tremblant is touristy, so no problem there.
Returning to my original point about Canadians hiding their feelings. We do it well and are pretty reserved. So even if you encounter anti-Americanism, it will likely be pretty muted.

Rob Ford's brother? Seriously. Wow. Here, we blame Sebby for Trump. Do you have a face for the Ford thing? (oh, and thanks for the break down)
