If Trump's tariff goal was to divide Canadians, his temporary delay of tariffs on Mexico is doing a good job. Conservatives from Poilievre to Smith, and their supporters, are back to blaming Trudeau for Trump's tariffs.

I'd say most Canadians are aligned to fight against the tarrifs and buy Canadian, Albertans included. Our premier doesn't speak for us. Blaming Trudeau is the only thing they have!
Mexico hasn't had a specific threat for annexation. Their calculation is much different.
I doubt sending 10000 Canadian troops to our border would help the situation. It would undoubtably make it worse
I hate when he uses the term 50 first State. We're not interested in absorbing Canada. I do think we should be good neighbors and have fair trade. If there's drugs and illegals pouring across the Canadian border into Canada and you're running a trade deficit with the US, you would complain as well.
Re: fentanyl and illegals “pouring” over your northern border: you let them in. You. Let. Them. In. Not us. Stop hiring slackers to defend your border. Problem solved.
We have American guns pouring over our border into Canada; is that not a problem? The US trade deficit comes down to: you want our stuff and you buy it; we don’t force you. We also want your stuff and we buy it. With 1/10th your population and a much smaller economy, we can only buy so much. 1/2
And I'm all for stopping that as well. Every country has a right to sovereignty. I know this is hard for people on the left to understand but we have a right to know who's coming into our country and prohibit drugs.
As we say in Calgary about the weather, "wait five minutes". Next meeting is in 50 minutes. IMHO it's probably best to let the tariffs set in at this point. We can't keep living with the threat of tariffs over and over again for at least 4 years.
Agreed. Trump will keep threatening to eek out whatever gains he can get. I also wonder if his actions are meant to create instability in the stock market so he and his buddies can game it.
Do you have something I can link to on that? I asked my con MP why we haven’t heard from PP and he sent me PP’s speech backing tariffs. I want to send my MP the 180.
Racist Trump doesn't want to annex Mexico because its filled with Mexicans. He does want to annex Canada he sees as a white country. We are of course very multi-cultural but Trumps an imbecile and doesn't know that. Then there's all of our natural resource he wants to get his greedy little hands on.
Canada or its provinces will never become states. If Trump annexes us, we'll be treated like Puerto Rico. We'll be a territory without any representation or power.
The Bluest but we'd never be given the power of full statehood we'd simply be there to serve their financial interests. More like slaves to the oligarchy.
They didn't delay tarriffs because of these asskissers. They delayed tariffs because they have asked their federal work force to resign and you need a massive bureaucracy in order to enforce these tarriffs.
The only thing that will happen if they did so now is smuggling.

More than the 1% of fentanyl from Canada to the US.
