Charlie Angus: "These tariffs that Trump has thrown on us is an attempt to intimidate us to make us back down from the fact that there are only two countries in the world—that didn't roll over when hit with arbitrary trade threats. That was Canada and that was China." #cdnpoli

KING CARNEY TURNS CANADA INTO A FUCKING CASH COW
There’s a bloke in Ottawa right now quietly running the single greatest economic masterclass on the planet, and the funniest part is that he kinda owes the lucky break to Donald Trump.

Q: What do you say to elected officials in the US who are asking Canada to do more to avoid that the north of the US every year sees smoke from wildfires? Carney: We need a contribution from Americans in the fight against climate change. Climate change is everyone's responsibility, including the US.
