"The fact that the U.S. federal government is squawking in one loud, highly irritating voice… that it would like to obliterate the national sovereignty of our longtime friend and ally to the north is in and of itself a scandal." Commentary: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

It 100% is. I will note however, that PM Carney is managing Trump like an expert. He is skillfully delivering the fluffing Trump craves, without diminishing himself. And he’s doing it all while certainly & forcefully defending Canada. 🍁 🇨🇦

Chasing the stupidest thing trumf says each day means that you aren't talking about daily corruption & bitcoin 3billion. Since he has immunity, the only way to remove him is impeachment. If Republicans are against it, they must be pro corruption, or they are on Jeff Epstein's list.

We have managed to exist as decent neighbours for decades yet Trump is suddenly the new neighbour who moved in and started to find faults. I think he see's all those resources and thinks "my precious".

#POTUS #Trump forgets how #Canada had our back on 9/11 with Operation Yellow Ribbon and how Canadians took care of air travelers who were impacted by the quarantine of US airspace.

Canada has been complicit in America’s bullying of countless nations for decades, even directly supporting American foreign policy towards her enemies. It’s a shame that only when America threatens us the same way that we finally start to decouple. We should’ve taken a stand years ago. Decades ago

Our Prime Minister represented our sovereign country to the United States today and actually told the President of the United States to his badly cosmetically made up face that his sovereign country wasn’t for sale & never never never never never would be for sale.

The treaty he wants to just throw away is the Treaty of Paris 1783. It established the 49th parallel as the border and = get this - declared the United States as an independent (sovereign) nation. The man knows nothing of his own country's history.

I am not aware of any of the 10 provinces (states) of Canada that want to become the 51 state of the US. But, I am aware of a number of US states that would like to become part of Canada.

I cannot believe Mr. Carney didn't immediately end the meeting and storm out. Threatening the sovereignty of any country, but especially a friend and ally, is unconscionable. If any other country's leader talked to the US like this, we would expel their diplomants.

Carney knows exactly what Trump's situation is... Some of the worst hit areas are Pacific Northwest ports like Portland and Tacoma, which specialize in shipping U.S. crops to Asia; the Port of Portland has already seen a 51 percent drop in exports. www.rawstory.com/tariffs-farm...

rawstory.com'Crisis': US farm exports collapse to pandemic-era levels as Trump's tariffs ramp upThe U.S. farming sector is on the brink of crisis as President Donald Trump's trade war implodes America's ability to ship crops abroad, reported CNBC on Tuesday morning.This follows warnings from law...

Something nobody has talked about yet concerning US Ports seeing a 40% decline in container ships.. soon there will be a big shortage of empty containers available to US exporters to load their shipments for export…

Been thinking about trying to break this down and explain it, like to a little kid, for Republicans. But they won't care. And I don't know what to do with people who simply don't care about creating pointless problems for other people. Feels like there's no saving a relationship after that.

If trump could sell the White House he would. In fact, if he and his minions decide to stay past January 2029, he will make Mar a Lago the presidential palace, bull doze the White House and sell the property.

"It is, or at least it should be, a damp stain on our national conscience, and your average outraged Canadian is responding rationally. If anything, it’s the American public that should be taking Trump’s depravity more seriously. We allowed this to happen." Indeed.

Trump is a fascist, imperialist pig. He should be rotting in prison for his crimes now until he drops dead.He's a lunatic & a war monger. He doesn't know what the hell he's doing but he is obeying Putin's orders because he owes him "bigly," 4helping him stay in business & winning the election 2xs.

Canadian here and I disagree. There are times that you have to stand up to the bully. Not as much for him as for everyone else, to show them that he is not "all powerful" and that those he has already targeted and the next ones he does are NOT ALONE.

Trump is a threat to everyone and everything on the planet. A deranged lunatic with the nuclear codes, a climate change denier, a convicted felon, an adjudicated rapist who can barely string a sentence together. However, despite all of this he was voted POTUS by 77 million Americans. 🤔

I just like to ask Jamie Dimon and Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg was all the money worth it to destroy this country that you live in? All these wealthy influential people that sat beside this pathetic excuse for a tired Las Vegas lounge act sitting in our White House You guys all good with us?

Weird because it also sounds like a threat to invade, which seems a step north of, oh, I don't know, some dress with a stain on it, the kind of things Republicans usually obsess over instead of sending the military across our north and south borders.

He is THREATENING a sovereign nation and one of the founding members of NATO! This should be treated as seriously as Putin threatening Ukraine before invading!

Instead of Trump deporting kids to some 3rd world prison, why doesn't the US collectively agree to deport Trump instead? As far as I know, he created the rule to deport immigrants, yet he himself is one, so what are you waiting for?

What Trump really wants from Canada: Trump casts trade as a zero-sum subsidy fight, weaponizing fentanyl and “51st state” threats as smokescreens for tariffs. He aims to force Canada into an economic federation with the US, opening energy, forestry, and mining sectors to majority US investment.

The only time Trump will start really negotiating with Canada is IF the US starts to plumet. Otherwise he will string us along and keep trying to make us the 51st state. This is now a game of Chicken. Who's economy will start to really suffer to make the other side cave in. That's Trump's MO.

This administration is all scandal all the time. Because they don’t give a 💩 about this country and neither do dumbass Republican voters

I recommend checking out media from states near the border like North Dakota to see whether they mention the reasons Canadians aren't coming to the US is that Trump is threatening to annex Canada. The Grand Forks Herald never mentioned it as a reason.

Threats upon ally is a threat upon democracy. Trump not leaving upon end of term. Has no intention of leaving ever unless in coffin. Stubborn old farts deciding what’s best for the rest of US. Time for old farts to step down and let younger generations step up. Nazi Republicans are everyone’s enemy
