Slight pro-tip for non HCIQ or even HQIQ much more of that sentiment from Quebecers in particular is due much more to them being essentially isolated in Canada vs basically the rest of Canada (english vs french), and their own version of a wanting a country of Quebec, then it is actually anti-science or antimasker or even loving the US that much. It just happens to manifest itself that way (kinda like a "own the libs" feeling). It is also a small but very organized little group.
Several in the western provinces feel the same way, though they are a way less organized, and for different reasons (they basically hate Toronto/Ontario and Quebec).
But in general as you said SD, there are less dumbasses up there, but it also helps they have the entire population of Cali in the world's 2nd largest country by area. Social distancing is the norm.
