On Sunday’s The Weekend: Primetime, MS NOW welcomed former Canadian Deputy PM Chrystia Freeland—an MSNBC regular in her days as a journalist for the Financial Times and Reuters —to lament what she portrayed as a breakdown in U.S.-NATO trust under President Trump.
Before getting there, Freeland set the tone with a gush of flattery—thanking host Catherine Rampell for the “great show” and praising her writing. Not subtle.
But the most revealing moment came when Freeland tried to reassure viewers that Canadians still admire Americans. And of all places, she chose Minneapolis:
“The people of Minneapolis are so admired in Canada. And if you're from Minneapolis and you're watching this show, I guarantee you, you will never have to pay for a beer if you come on holiday in Canada. Just say where you're from.”

PS: I make it a point not to comment on people's physical appearance, but have to say I was surprised to see Freeland. Guess it's been a few years.

Don’t forget Freeland was also Canada’s Finance Minister, looks or otherwise!

Good point. And while a sitting member of the Canadian parliament, she also served as an official adviser to Zelensky, until criticism forced her to resign her MP seat.

"Rather than guaranteeing the rules-based world order, the US is turning predator. So what Canada needs to do is work closely with our democratic allies, our military allies. I've been Foreign Minister. I know how to do that. I would start with our Nordic partners, specifically Denmark, which is also being threatened, and our NATO European allies. I would be sure that France and Britain were there who possess nuclear weapons and I will be working urgently with these partners to build a closer security relationship that guarantees our security in a time when United States can be a threat. I would also reach out to our Asian democratic partners, Japan, South Korea, Australia"--Chrystia Freeland
Chrystia Freeland supported invoking the Emergencies Act against the Canadian Truckers.
She was on the board of trustees for the WEF.
She is the grandaughter of Michael Chomiak, Ukrainian lawyer, journalist, community activist and alleged Nazi collaborator
Evil, evil person.

There are thousands of Obama minions in Minneapolis who feel they need to get out RIGHT NOW before the hammer falls.
The corruption goes from artists to college professors to church pastors to state and fed politicians.
