Canadians are proud and protective of a whole plethora of Canadian things!
Justin Bieber is just not one of them.
Here is a brief history of Canada unapologetically throwing shade at one of their very own:
1. When Huffington Post Canada ran this headline.
2. And Toronto Sun with this one:
3. When he got booed by his own countrymen at this year's Juno Awards.

After winning the "fan favourite" category. The irony was not lost on them.
4. And then again at the Grey Cup.

Apparently, in response to him wearing DENIM OVERALLS to receive the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal from Prime Minister Harper.
5. When several Facebook communities sprung up to offer each other support.
6. When the country came together on Canada Day for one unifying cause.
Canada Day is the day Canadians unite to celebrate that Justin Bieber moved to the US
7.
8. And when Americans were trying to give him back...
9. ...Canadians unanimously noped.
@Jezebel DO NOT WANT. sorry.
@Jezebel no thanks.
10. Because:
"No way — you broke it, you bought it.” — a Canadian on the U.S. returning Justin Bieber to Canada http://t.co/EhZOGn6saF
11. And:
12. When this billboard popped up in anticipation for the men's USA vs. Canada Olympic hockey game.
Nothing is higher than the stakes of tomorrow’s game.
13. Which spawned these GIFs:

15. When fellow Canuck Seth Rogen politely tweeted this:
All jokes aside, Justin Bieber is a piece of shit.
16. When Canadians revealed their biggest fear:
17. When, after all of his antics, Americans started the #DeportBieber hashtag...
HELL YES I WOULD DONATE! Who's with me? #DeportBieber
18. ...and Canadians responded by trending #KeepBieber.
#DeportBieber is trending in America and #KeepBieber is trending in Canada. I'm laughing so hard. Well played Canada.
19. When The Globe And Mail did not have time for cheeky, and just lays it out.
20. WITH THIS LEAD.
21. When they created these political campaign posters...
22. And when, because they know no other, Canadians thoughtfully apologized.
We are sorry for Justin Bieber. - Canada
We Canadians can't apologize enough for Justin Bieber.
We're sorry, everyone. @benjaminboles Uh? RT @CBCToronto: Shirtless Justin Bieber startles Polish airport officials http://t.co/7HiZ7s3AU2
As a Canadian I would like to, once again, apologize for Justin Bieber. He is simply horrifying. We're sorry.
