Nah. The YouTube and Facebook channels are probably more US-centric, which is where they get the "amendment" crap, but there are absolutely groups like this - anti-intellectual, often fairly "religious" - that have been around in Canada for a long time. More they're just more organized and funded instead of being loose collection of weirdos that most people could happily ignore. Trumpism in the US may have emboldened village idiots around the world, but it didn't really make them.

Trudeau has been around longer than Biden has been president, as have the bumper stickers. Those were here even before he became PM.
