Russia Hoaxers Quiet about Canadian Election Interference

The Canadian government once again colludes with Democrats.

As President Trump has repeatedly pointed out, the Canadian government embraces a peculiar notion of national sovereignty: It depends upon the U.S. military for security and expects to sell its domestic products to Americans as if Canada were just another U.S. state. At the same time, it insists on censoring American sources of news, restricting the flow of American goods into Canada, and rebuking American foreign policy decisions.

When former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau flew to Mar-a-Lago to meet with President Trump following his 2024 re-election, the Canadian leader’s foremost concern was to prevent the new Trump administration from seeking fair and reciprocal trade (actual free trade) between the two countries — a goal that the president and his economic team had pursued during Trump’s first term and which ultimately resulted in the replacement of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) with the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). From Trump’s point of view, USMCA did not resolve decades-long trade imbalances between Canada and the United States, but it did kill NAFTA and put the U.S. in a legal position to recalibrate its economic relationship with Canada by 2026. Trudeau and the Canadians needed for the old system to endure, and he told Trump that Canada could not economically survive if Canada were forced to remove its own trade barriers against the U.S. This is when Trump suggested to Trudeau that if Canada cannot exist without American welfare, then it is operating as a de facto American state.

Trump’s unvarnished truth-telling created an international brouhaha. Never one for pretending or backing down, the president spent the next several months advising Canada to make its dependence upon the American Union official by becoming the fifty-first state. Canadians from British Columbia to Newfoundland took great offense

It is also fascinating how Chrystia Freeland publicly argues that the best way to fight back against the Trump administration is to assist Democrats in the upcoming midterm elections. Calling it the “Donut Strategy,” Freeland says that the Canadian government must go around the White House and manipulate the American people.

Someone should ask Christopher Steele and Tim Kaine about Canada and election interference.

It’s too late to grill McCain.

From the article: "He has repeatedly described Canada as an extension of Old Europe, rather than part of the New World."

Bu way of illustration, here is a pix of Carney with the SOVEREIGN king who legally leads Canada.

Well framed argument.

Very true.

Canada remains a colony of London and WEF/Davos

If you have any doubts, just look at Mark Carney’s resume, and how he was parachuted into the job of Prime Minister.

and as such, if necessary, TPTB will use Canada as a wedge against the United States.
