Depends on the path they take. If they just “wait it out” we’ll all be dead before Canadians go back to the way things were. If they hit some kind of breaking point and drag that rapist prick and his sycophants out of their White House in leg irons- I would be willing to negotiate an expedited process.
Trust is hard-earned, easily lost, and difficult to reestablish.
It will be in a few decades as a best case scenario. It’s not even about Trump specifically. The world will have lost its trust in the US public to not vote in chaos, now that they’ve done it twice, for the forseeable future.
Exactly right, a lesson I’ve tried to hammer home to my kids (and even adults who act like kids), trust takes a long time to establish, but can be destroyed in no time, sometimes irretrievably. These rich assholes are so entrenched in the USA USA USA exceptionalism that they can’t fathom that the whole world might not just kneel before us. Well, they (and we) are surely finding out. So much/most of these “billionaire’s” wealth is the stock market, which is to a large degree based on feels, and that requires stability and confidence/trust, all of which is being absolutely demolished. Fucking hilarious how they all bent the knee for tax cuts and influence, and are likely going to see most of their “wealth” vanish into thin air. I hope they can find no peace anywhere on Earth for the rest of their days.
So like, in 60 years or so?

Might only be 40. Long enough for the current generation of leaders to die off.
Who knows. Might get bad enough for the 2024 movie Civil War to turn into a predictive documentary. Could be 20!
