Canada was ripe for electing a strong conservative PM (Pierre Poilievre), but then Trump started pissing Canada off with this 51st state idiocy, and Poilievre is associated with Trump (right wing and all), so now it looks like Canada will elect Trudeau v2 (Mark Carney). Somebody needs to pimp slap Trump on this thing, and fast. This is still my opinion, and unfortunately it came true. Also clearly, nobody has pimp slapped Trump on this.

We voted for a progressive globalist world bank guy who clearly knows how to push Trump's buttons to get what he wants? If Canada actually implements a step-change improvement in pulling their weight for their own national security and NATO, I'll be pleasantly surprised.

listen2me 23 1,836 Posted May 7 Meanwhile Alberta's premiere entertains breaking away from Canada should the people want it. Yeah, the Canadian national leaders sure are alpha. Trump is correct. We dont really need Canadian "stuff". If we prioritized a better manufacturing base here in America we definitely wouldnt. Meanwhile Canada needs the USA oh so much. Now all this 51st state stuff is far fetched. I think it could sort of work in a utopia that doesnt exist. Of course we would have to extinguish all the Liberal ideas that has tanked and pussified that country. But yea not happening. Its funny to watch Trump troll them however. Carney said what he is supposed to say. Totally fair play by him. He did well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
