Trump warned he will impose additional tariffs on the European Union and Canada if they band together to “do economic harm” against the United States.

Get @#$%ed, Trump. Good read. Short but detailed about how partnered we are already and what our next priorities should be

      Good thing it’s not up to assholes who make ignorant, sweeping generalizations that are likely going to harm Europe more than help it. Personally, I’d sooner chip off my own nutsack than vote right, but hey, don’t let that stop you from being CATEGORICALLY INCORRECT.

      So, when you generalize canada in your mind right-wingers is what comes to mind? Or just the govt?

        Hard to call Canada not right wing when basically 90% of the country is voting for central right and far right parties. Liberals haven’t been even slightly left leaning for a long time. The most generous way to describe them is a party that uses left leaning policies to achieve right leaning goals.

        This is from a European view and while not the US the political spectrum suffers from the same problem.
        What some Canadians consider left is only relative.
        So this is your ‘liberal’ party?:

        And it’s a simple verifiable fact that voters decide on the goverment, so maybe it’s only in your mind that they’re not right-wingers.
        Maybe it’s an uncomfortable truth?

          I love how everyone answering this question is taking an aggressive posture like I was defending or attacking something.

          Fun stuff. Thanks for answering anyway.

            I guess if you find my answer aggressive I’m right that it’s an uncomfortable truth for you.

              You said ‘your liberal party’ as if I would ever vote liberal. Swing and a miss there. Liberal is basically an insult to me.

              And then you claimed that I would somehow be uncomfortable with what you consider to be the truth. If that isn’t plainly passive aggressive tone then I am a wombat in need of a martini.

              All I was asking was if you thought of run-of-the-mill canucks as right-wingers, or if you meant the govt. From that you assumed my position and blithely attacked it.

              You are cute though, I’ll give you that.

        Almost 45% of our voting population are voting for the Conservatives. That’s a lot of people who desperately want to be the 51st state and live under authoritarianism and fascism.

        Why they don’t just move there is beyond me. I would gladly see every single Conservative voter move to the America they want us to be. Canada don’t need them or their kind.

          You know damn well that 60+% of that 45% have no idea what you are talking about if you say the words “51st state”.

          I am all for shitting on conservatives and liberals alike. But let’s at least be honest with ourselves before smugly wiping.
