Summary
Mark Carney, frontrunner for Canadian Liberal Party leadership and potential prime minister, stated Canada will stand up to a bully after Trump imposed 25% tariffs on Canadian imports.
Carney vowed to retaliate by matching the US tariffs dollar for dollar, asserting Canada would not cave in despite mounting pressure.
He criticized Trump for undermining trade agreements, warning that the tariffs would damage the US global reputation and economic stability.
Outgoing Prime Minister Trudeau promised a forceful, immediate response, emphasizing unity as Canada defends its economic interests, ensuring national prosperity.
The population of the US has no appetite for invading Canada, many of us have close friends and family there, we consider Canada a friend and ally and Trumps hissy fit doesn’t change that.
If the US invades Canada there will be a lot of Americans aiding resistance.
Isn’t that the relationship Russia had with Ukraine when Putin took over?
Not to mention the countless young adults and teenagers that still think of Canada as a saving grace, nearly utopia-esque place. Their healthcare, prison and education systems have profound impacts on the minds of young people. Or at least they did a few years ago when I was in school.
In any case, you’ve got a lot of people in America that would much rather fight for Canada
