Justin Trudeau, Canadas new prime minister, is currently visiting Washington to deepen ties with President Barack Obama and make headway on an ambitious left-leaning agenda on a wider range of issues.

Any surprise the pretty boy socialist got a heroes welcome at the White House today. Harper probably never received as much as a postcard from the clown prince.
Two socialist pukes.
Sorry Canada. Hope you don’t wind up like us.
They literally are “America’s Hat” now. Token contributions in our poorly-done occupations and that’s it; between extremely virulent liberal-socialism* and economic monkeyshines they literally CAN’T do more.
*My church is on the verge of classifying them as ‘a nation hostile to the beliefs and teaching of Christianity’...a status normally reserved for 3rd-world nations that will literally throw you to the lions.

We should basically tell Somali Pirates that it’s open season on Canadian cargo ships. Feel free to raid those ships as long as you leave the American ones alone.
Agreed.
It’s long past time for America to withdraw her protection from ‘allies’ that aren’t.
Like Trump would say "what's in it for us?"
