I think if Pm @mark-carney.bsky.social were to suddenly announce that we're limiting the F-35's we're getting and filling the rest of the jet order with Gripens, he'd have polling #'s approving that deal equivalent to the amt supporting him withdrawing from trade talks. #cdnpoli #Canada

This poll makes more sense in light of the recent by-election win for the NDP in Calgary. I had trouble believing they were trailing by double digits as the Abacus poll showed (it was released right around the time of that byelection, as I recall) #cdnpoli #abpoli #Canada

I'm guessing this was an attempted flex by Trump against Canada - or threat. The problem is its an empty one. Belarus has nowhere near enough potash to give to he US; it gives what it can produce to China/India.. and besides its under sanction and landlocked. #cdnpoli #Canada #uspoli

Denmark & Greenland have figured out that all they have to do is allow Trump to brag and he'll give them anything. Trump is now touting his "amazing" new agreement, that is no different than the 1951 Greenland Defense Agreement, under which the US could have unlimited bases. 1/2

If Trump is your source, or you have to quote Trump on anything regarding deals with other countries, you might as well ask a garbage can for information. You should know better by now if you don't know already.

Trump posts about a “new” deal with Greenland and Denmark which appears to be just about exactly the same as our current deal with them, but nobody tell him that.
Trump post: BREAKING NEWS: I am pleased to announce that the United States of America has entered into an Agreement with The Kingdom of Denmark, and Greenland, that gives the United States permanent control over security, and all other needs, in Greenland, completely addressing ALL of our many U.S. concerns. There will be NO COST to the United States! At my direction, we worked with representatives of Denmark and Greenland to guarantee that the United States will FOREVER have the complete ability to do what is necessary in Greenland in order to secure and defend the security of Greenland, and the United States of America. Additionally, from now on, no U.S. adversary can EVER have a base in Greenland, have a military presence in Greenland, or make sensitive investments in Greenland, without our express written approval. For over 100 years, Presidents have known the strategic importance of Greenland, but NONE of them were able to do anything about it. I am proud to be the President that permanently and conclusively addressed this very important situation. This is an “Infinite Life” Agreement, there is no end! We are very honored and proud of what has just taken place, and everything agreed to today will be cherished by the American People. We will immediately begin the process of developing a large Military presence in the appropriate part of Greenland, of which there are many. We will work with the people of Greenland in its development and construction. This solution is a great one for the United States of America, Denmark, Greenland, and all of our Allies. We look forward to working with the wonderful people of Denmark and Greenland toward a magnificent future with respect to this large, and highly strategic, parcel of land. We will be very protective of it! This is a dream come true for the United States of America, one that is very important, historic, and special. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP

I'm incredulous they had the gall to claim it was Canada's spite not to get on our knees and take what Trump was telling us to take. There is a new media presence in Washington, by the way; all of the WP reporters Bezos fired formed the Washington Sun. #cdnpoli #Canada

Trump on Canada/EU: I think it's laughable. Canada has been a terrible trade partner. If they do that, if I think it's at all a hostile act, I will put very serious tariffs or stop trading with Europe on many things. If Europe does that with a bad intention, if it's a good intention, that's fine

Did a few days at the doors on Mike Derry's campaign in Calgary-Shaw.

It was quite positive even in the traditionally more NDP parts of the riding.

Good luck to Mike on election night tonight.
