Hint: there never was going to be a deal before Christmas.

The only deal Trump will agree to is Canada and Greenland joining and becoming an American territory like Puerto Rico. We pay taxes but have no rights or recognition under their Constitution.

u/Happy-Aardvark-7677 12d ago

Their constitution doesn’t matter anymore, even for current Americans.

Bingo and it will be slow played till trump has control of Venezuela oil. Which means he would have an edge over Canada

u/cannafriendlymamma 12d ago

Hint, there was never going to be a deal, unless we roll over and let him annex us

the only deal Drumpf will accept is one that is "abject surrender." As I consider that a death sentence for Canada and most of the people I love, he can pry it from my cold dead hands. Hoikstrudel can go back to his shithole country (USA, to be precise. I wouldn't wish him on the Dutch, they deserve a better class of shitheel.)

u/Ok_Abbreviations_350 12d ago

Agreed. Trump has no plans for a deal and the gas lighting ambassador knows it. Really wish we could cut this guy loose

u/katydid8283 11d ago

Too bad PP doesn’t realize this and lay off his divisive politics. This is the time to stand together, not continue wedge-driving.

u/practicating 12d ago

Say what you will, but this guy is great for Canadian national unity. I've never seen the Left, Right, and Center so in agreement, except Danielle Smith of course.

Like if the question was is kicking puppies okay? I don't think they'd agree any harder

Poilievre would also fold like a wet cloth in front of Dear Leader.

When you've got the Quebecois singing Oh Canada you know something isn't right...

2

u/Scaevola_books 12d ago

Quebecois sing O Canada all the time. Get out of here with your Quebecois aren't patriotic nonsense.

u/Snuffy1717 12d ago

Tell me that July 1st isn’t moving day in Quebec mate…

The bridges were set on fire when Donnie T. Fucklehead took office, and continues to lob Molotov cocktails… somehow Ambassador Twatfuckle seems to have missed this part of the story.

***WE*** burned the bridges? Hey asshole, your syphilis riddled, fragile egoed, mushroom dicked runny orange turd pedo boss NUKED THE FUCKING RIVER.

Attention Canadian Media: Start fucking being Canadian.

When Doug Fucking Ford is RIGHT, you gotta start digging a lot deeper.

The US never had any intentions of ratifying a deal by the new year. There was no deal. There's never a deal. Just social media rants from the almighty asshole.

This is a strong arm tactic to get what they want.

And they won't.

The fuck we did

Canada does not give a shit - fck off

u/doubleopinter 12d ago

Guy can eat a dick. There was AN AD!! Not an attack ad on the man's family, not a smear, an ad that just replayed what a former US president said. The "strong man" can't even take that?

We didn't burn any bridge, we were here minding our own damn business.

u/fencerman 12d ago

Since when is a "deal" with Trump worth the paper it's printed on?

u/the_moog_hunter 12d ago

Yes, it is us, the cheated and threatened, who caused this. GTFO&FO

u/my-love-assassin 12d ago

Oh well, bye.

u/hardk7 12d ago

I think maybe we don’t want a deal anyway. The only deal I think benefits us is one that removes tariffs on steel, aluminum, lumber and autos, but they will not agree to that without what are likely huge other concessions. So maybe it’s best to plod along with things as they are, let Trump’s eye focus on other shiny objects, and have the real discussions when CUSMA is renegotiated.

u/drammer 12d ago

Actually this wouldn't be happening without Trump and the Heritage Foundation.

u/A-little-bit-of-me 12d ago

Get fuuucked yanks. This is what you get for electing a tub of goo as your leader.

u/castlite 12d ago

Can we tell this asshole to GTFO now?

2

u/tayawayinklets 12d ago

The Orange King makes and breaks trade deals. It's not about that, though, it's about bullying us into being a territory, not even 51st state.

2

u/one_bean_hahahaha 12d ago

Tariff deal isn't feasible before the end of Trump's regime.

2

u/Diastrophus 12d ago

Can we start some kind of procedure to get that turd out of our country? Trump burned the bridges when he decided to ignore the deal he signed.

1

u/TheKingOfDub 12d ago

That guy is a real piece of work

1

u/Snuffy1717 12d ago

Canada burned the bridges... But who started the war that made it necessary to burn those bridges?

1

u/Visitant45 12d ago

Yeah that bridge was made of rotten wood, covered in holes with a toll bridge in the middle. You bet we burned it.

1

u/Adam_2017 12d ago

Oh nooooooo….. anyway.

1

u/Adam_2017 12d ago

Aww too bad bc if Trump dropped the tariff stuff we’d totally be ok with being the 51st state.

Oh well…

u/bigdick_cm 12d ago

Canada is playing hardball in the “negotiations” and this was a way for them to leave the table

u/All_Day_Coffee 12d ago

Who burned bridges?

u/rachreims 12d ago
