  1. “Hopium” that someone in the Marx Carnage #Libranos will report to the Canadian imbeciles on The President’s speech this morning at the United Nations. The teleprompter wasn’t functioning for the first half, and it made no real difference to what was said.

    Bannon and Alex Jones refer to this as “throwing the gauntlet”

    If the federal idiots in Canada simply walked away from all external to Canada problems and solely concentrated on repairing the damage they’ve done in the past decade within Canada, they’d take a decade of ACTUALLY repairing this damage to instill any hope for this garbage confederation to do anything constructive within it.

    We’re hooped. #Libranos will own this. There’s nobody else to blame when they control everything.

    1. Trump did not stutter and he did not sugarcoat his disdain for the utterly USELESS UN. And his Global Warming “denialism” was EPIC! What other world leader has the nutsac (or ovaries) to call out the UNIPCC … SCAM … as a scam? It was brilliant! Bravo President Trump. Bravo.

      And … he essentially said; you celebrate “diversity”? Great! Go visit all those colorful cultures and peoples in their lands of origin … where they should stay and celebrate their own diverse culture … THERE!

  2. Dear Mr. Appleton,
    Do you think that “getting smoked” by the big, bad, USA might just be a big part of globalist Carney’s strategy?

  3. Like Jamie says,when government policy is to waste ,destroy and steal,international trade mismanagement may look like “hopium” when in fact it serves to cover the stealing real well.
    Reviewing Federal Government action over the last 6 decades,leads to this question;
    “If the intent of our government had been to destroy Canada as a nation..What if anything would they have done differently?”
    When you define a nation;
    As a group of people sharing a defined landmass,an agreed upon set of rules,willing to defend those borders and those rules.
    Where is Can Ahh Duh?

    1. I’ve asked that question many times, here, and in conversations with people who have no business arguing politics at work and should just stick to hockey or football, whatever entertains them most…

      If a secret recording was discovered at some point in the future, and The Turd™️ or Marx Carnage was heard to be asking, “what more could we do to damage Canada?” … my only question would be to ask, “what could they have done differently?” and thusly on this file (and ONLY on this file), “I’m shooting blanks” … I’ve got nothing.

    2. When a government is extremely corrupt, politicians and senior bureaucrats, this is the only expected result. That the LDPRK is a failed nation makes no difference to the bunch enriching themselves at our expense.

  4. It’s a two-fer! De-industrialize Canada into a Net Zero Hero on the world stage … and play the BadOrangeManBad card. Trump is why you can’t have nice things! BadOrangeManBad.

    Sadly … Chrystia Freeland won’t be around to watch her strategy Blow Canada to pieces.

  5. I read in a report that awhile ago, that canaduh’s approach has been to key on that “special relationship” point; “We’re better together; kumbaya etc. etc.” and not on actual hard, fact based negotiations. That strategy is not going to play out very well. It’s obvious the Orange Man does not think much of “special relationships”

    Canaduh has painted itself into such a corner, specifically in its constant and unwavering pandering to La Belle Province. Supply Management is squarely in the Trump Administration’s sites and it is a leverage point they will use to great effect. Hopefully, to the ultimate end of canaduh as currently formed.

  6. Why would the Carney Liberals want to improve the relationship with the US? The conflict helped them win the federal election. Pretty sure the Liberals hope to bamboozle boomers in central and eastern Canada with the Elbows Up strategy a couple more times at least. Besides, all of the Liberal government’s policy failures that have led to an economic crises can now be blamed on something/someone else. Gullible and naive Liberal voters will believe anything the TV tells them to believe.

  7. It’s patently obvious what Trump (actually, Bessent) is doing. The US will not have any substantial talks with Canada (or Mexico) on trade until the Summer of 2026 (when the re-evaluation of the USMCA is scheduled officially). In the interim, the US is shoring up new trade agreements with a significant number of trading partners initiated (and motivated) by that application of tariffs. It’s worked, and continues to work.

    Canada is the US’s second largest trading partner. #1 is Mexico, believe it or not. So, using common sense, it would seem prudent to negate a lot of negotiating positions of those two countries by solidifying trade agreements with other partners so as to create overlap on export offerings, thus lowering their importance and negotiation value. You don’t negotiate with your biggest trade partners first. You set the pins up first.

    Simply put, there will be no substantive trade talk between the US and Canada until next summer. AND, there will be a push by the US to remove a Tri-lateral trade agreement. The US will create an individual trade agreement with each country (Canada/ Mexico) individually. There will be a 16 year period before that takes place due to the wording in the USMCA, but that’s the path that will be taken.

    1. That’s pretty much what Trump has said … that he doesn’t want complex multi-lateral trade agreements … but rather straightforward nation-to-nation trade agreements. As usual … I believe you’re right.
