Ooh, Canada!
Some Canucks are proposing the most drastic measure yet in the trade war with Uncle Sam – blocking US access to Canadian-owned Pornhub.
The idea is the brainchild of funnyman Matthew Puzhitsky, who posted a now-viral Instagram video suggesting the X-rated offensive — calling it Canada’s “nuclear weapon.”
Pornhub is the most visited in the US with more than 3 million views a month.
“If Canada could ban Pornhub in the states, we win the trade war. That’s it. There is no trade war,” the Toronto stand-up comedian told The Post.
A petition has since been launched urging Canadian authorities to block Pornhub as a “peaceful yet powerful” response to the trade dispute. It’s not yet risen to the occasion, generating a few dozen signatures so far.
Toronto’s Marc Olimpo said Canadians expects that to change, since his countryman are fired up about the trade war.
“That’s all anyone is talking about,” Olimpo told The Post.
New Yorkers meanwhile were aghast with the prospect of losing Pornhub, whose parent company is Montreal-based entertainment conglomerate Aylo, which owns a dozen popular X-rated sites.
“If they take away my access to Pornhub, I’m moving out of the US,” one concerned Manhattan user told The Post.
“Canadians wouldn’t do that to us…would they?” another asked. “I thought they were supposed to be nice.”
“It’s a big move,” continued the man, who warned the drastic measure might be premature, since trade talks remain ongoing. “Let’s not be hasty Canada!”
