In other words, some Republican senators still want to insert the knife into Caanda, to drain our lifeblood, but they want it done compassionately.
As for Mr. Trump’s threats of annexation? “We don’t even want them to be the 51st state,” Mr. Cramer said with a laugh. But unable to resist, he added: “We want Alberta to be the 51st state. And then we have two Republican senators.”
Fuck these guys. They’re the usual entitled American idiots, blundering around in foreign countries without understanding them.
What a completely tactless piece of trash thing to say.
How about fucking off to your backwards country.
Actually, US senators are in a position to do something that would actually go some way toward repairing relations with Canada - they can (with the House’s cooperation) remove the profoundly mentally ill, immensely dangerous and brazenly corrupt demagogue Trump from office.
Nothing short of that is going to accomplish much of anything though. As long as that psychopath is in office, incrementally turning the presidency into a dictatorship from which to pursue his literally insane agenda, nobody will or should trust the US for anything.
A profound apology would also help.
I was actually just thinking about that, sort of.
The childish and sort of pathetic nature of the whole thing led me to visualize a hardass middle-aged mom dragging Trump up to Canada by the ear and standing him in front of everyone and saying, “Donnie has something he wants to say to you all, don’t you Donnie (pinch)”
In a way, that’s exactly what that manbaby needs.
10 years after you hang that orange Turd we might think about it. Until then fuck off.
This is the only response needed to any overtures from the US: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAbATWsvjTE
And sorry Democrats, until you get your Republican problem under control, we can’t trust you either. In 2016 it looked like it might just be a flare-up, but the reappearance of symptoms indicates that the infection is deeper and ongoing.
That video deserves its own post. 😁🙂
Go jump in a lake
hey canada, actually keep up the good work. we got some folks down here who don’t get it yet. we’ll be in touch once we’ve fixed our shit
You have almost an entire POPULATION that ‘doesn’t get it yet’.
Call us when you understand what ‘recognition and reconciliation policy’. is all about.
Until we stop electing sociopaths, we don’t deserve a second chance from anybody. Canadians know that, unlike the fools who elected you.
Senators, all you’re doing is further insulting a previously close ally. The best thing you can do is shut up.
The best thing senators can do is vote to convict Trump’s impeachment.
I’m a fan of balkanization. That’d fix a lot of problems quickly, albeit for a limited number of states and at the cost of making things worse for other states.
Is it really a cost if those states want to make things worse for themselves? They all have the same ability to choose sensible economic policies, they just seem to want morons in charge.
Republic of California.
Republic of New England.

I read this in the voice of professor farnsworth from futurama.
Nope. Not in my lifetime.

No.
Eject the fascist first, then we can talk.
No, no talk until they understand "recognition and reconciliation policy. "
tRump is just a symptom. The USA is and always has been an oligarchy, founded on genocide and grown through slavery, patriarchy and misogyny. The original constitution gave ALL political power to Rich White Males and only superficial changes have been made over the last 250 years, the real power still remains with the oligarchs. tRump has just dropped the mask for the world to see what a fascist shit-stain of a country the U.S. really is at its core. The world (and Canada) will be extremely unwise to ever trust them again no matter which faction of the oligarchy is in power.
When Americans understand what ’ recognition and reconciliation policy’ is all about, they might also understand where they went wrong with Canadians.
There are simply too many reasons to say no. How the US treats people entering and leaving the country. How due process is ignored for people within the country.
In broad terms the US is an unkind society. This is not to say that there are not kind individuals, but they are unable to influence the overall norm that is so clearly on display.
You don’t get to cause so many damages to a partner and then suggest we give you another chance. That ship has sailed and I am ready for us to find other trading partners and address our own internal trade barriers.
The Americans are an adversarial us-vs-them society. There always has to be a loser in the American culture.
That is because they need someone to look down on.
Little do they know how much they’re looked down upon by other, more civilized countries.

FTFY
I might, in four years or so, but probably not. There’s a segment of Americans that have the memories of goldfish.
I’ll be fascinated to see who the R candidate is, and if the election is free and fair at all.
If Trump is in any state to do anything about it, it won’t be.
Yeah, that’s where my money is too. He’s ruled out running himself, though, and I believe him just based on him being old and not really a good fit fit for the actual job.
Not again in my lifetime. (Presumably a lot longer than 4 years)
Hopefully, Canadians will have a LONG memory.
Why? It’s abundantly clear any further chances will be pissed upon.
