They need a bunch of stuff from Canada, and they know it. Why they're playing dumb like that, we'll never know.
We really ought to stop exports of anything their military needs, for national security reasons. "National security" is one of Trump's favorite justifications, so I'm sure he'll understand.
That's how you definitely get invaded. Cover Canada in spikes before you do something like that.
To make it look like we are treating them unfairly. They are trying to make Canada look like the bad guy.
The only people who actually believe that "Canada is the bad guy" are the dumbest of the dumb Republican voters. Most people with any sense can see that Trump is the asshole here. Every other world leader, except for putin, publically acknowledges this.
I will also add that Lutnick is a massive piece of shit and paints trump as the saint of all saints. Canada shouldn't even bother having talks with any of their representatives if they're playing pigeon chess.
Yeah I was reading yesterday that the spat with Canada is hugely unpopular with American citizens. Even many GOP voters don't want it. I suspect that the US will keep tariffs up and continue being a pain in the ass, but they will shift their military threats elsewhere. The recent news of the US planning an invasion of Panama seems more possible and would easier for them to sell to the US people. It would still be economic suicide, though.
Crazy to think that voters were convinced that "sleepy joe", and whatever nickname they gave Kamla Harris, would have been worse than what's happening now.
Hopefully, Canadian leaders are wise enough to take the threats to Canada's sovereignty extremely seriously. It should be their number one priority. Just because the Dollar Menu aficionado in the White House says something that seems baffling on its surface doesn't mean we shouldn't be planning for the worst.
Absolutely. It does seem as though the new Carney government is up to the task, but we do have an election coming so we shall see.
That said, the Cons are not polling particularly good right now and it would be easy for the Liberals to form coalition with the NDP, Greens, and/or Bloc. There isn't a snowball's chance in hell that those parties would cooperate with the US-aligned Cons under PP.
Well you are lucky if you live outside of Saskatchewan or Alberta.

Are we sure they're playing dumb, and aren't just actually dumb?
American here. We are dumb. And dangerous. Heβs probably going to go after Panama and Mexico first, but make no mistake, he will come for Canada if he can.
Please take the opportunity to remind us why the Geneva Convention is such a long list.
Perhaps half way in-between.
No I think it is they are dumb.
