Canadian Companies Fear Major Losses if Cuban Communist Regime Falls
Breitbart ^ | 23 Mar 2026 | John Hayward

Cuban Deputy Foreign Minister Carlos Fernandez de Cossio Dominguez on Friday sought to convince Canada to prop up the fading Communist regime in Havana, arguing that Canadian companies could lose billions from nullified contracts if the regime falls.

De Cossio praised Cuba’s “important trade relations” with Canada and the hefty investments Canadian companies have made in Cuba.

“Despite the fact that we do not have a coincidence in all the political and international positions, we have always known how to solve our problems, our differences, and work with them based on dialogue and based on mutual respect,” he said.

The Cuban official blamed America’s energy blockade for starving Cuba of the fuel it needs for “everything from energy for hospitals, for homes, for education, for industry, for the production of food, for agriculture, for transportation, for medical care, for the livelihoods of people.” …

Why would the contracts be nullified?

And why are the Canadians doing deals with the Communists in the first place?

The canucks are really going to be miffed when Cuba becomes the 51st state under Gov. Rubio.

Canada-they’re not with us. Have they ever been? If we take over perhaps we should crowd them out along with all the other countries.

For the same reason we make deals with the Red Chinese Communists . . . short-sighted bad judgment.

Canada made an emotional decision.
They backed the wrong horse.
Personally I hope the western and northern provinces
secede and request Territory status with the US.
Which I’m sure we will grant very quickly.
They get to keep their anti gun government,
but get all the goodies that Americans
have except voting for Congress critters.
I’ve seen how it works for the benefit of Guam.

They’re really going to be upset when Alberta becomes the 52nd state.

Would this be a “two birds with one stone” thing?
