Canada is so damn close to the States. Since around my late teens, I've always thought that trends like these start in Europe, the UK specifically. Then after many years, they go to Canada before they land in states like California or New York, finally becoming a nationwide trend in a decade or less of getting here. It could be a political trend, or a social one, or a combination of both. It wasn't until I was in my 40s that I came to realize it was all a communist plot from before I was born.
