    So seriously - at what point do we collectively face the fact that the PotUS is a raving lunatic?

      There are people in positions of power who have the ability to ask this question and start the process. That they still don’t suggests a lot more than just one crazy individual leading the madness.

      As a response, Canada could just expand their existing tariffs to cover even more categories.

    Why do I have a feeling that within the 4 years, there will be a World War, but it won’t be a matter of the globe against Russia. It’ll be the globe against United States because of this fuckwad?

      I keep saying that Trump will try to do with Canada or Mexico something similar as Russia din with Ukraine. And the pretext will be either the 51st state bullshit or invading Mexico because of cartels.

        I’m kinda leaning toward the idea that he’s just trying to make Canada less accepting of refugees as shit over here gets worse and worse.

    I like that Trump repeatedly insulted Trudeau as the “governor” of Canada, and it’s essentially the “governor” of Ontario giving him the business.
