    This is the kind of extreme, radical multiculturalism we've been hearing about. Clearly a grave threat to our way of life.

    Costa Rica has sent 102 firefighters - Los Bomberos - to fight wildfires in Canada. Thank you Costa Rica. Good job, charge d’affaires, ⁦@DanaCryderman⁩

    I’m on vacation but can’t stop watching the train wreck taking place in slow motion in Ottawa. Trudeau has now removed the only person in Cabinet with business experience and handed the task of economic recovery to a journalist. As a journalist, I find that concerning.

    This is what Canada is up against: a constituency that is not open to persuasion; that is not only ignorant of, but disdains the facts; that swallows all Trump’s lies and regurgitates them to scapegoat and spread hate. 🇨🇦 has to insulate itself from this madness.

    Replying to @BowinnMa
    Why can't Canadians understand that the WHOLE ISSUE is that we have been giving Canada 200 BILLION dollars a year and getting NOTHING back. Not even free trade. Nothing. Not even border security. Nothing. Canda is a BURDEN on the United States. Canda is a TAX on every U.S.

    I have a dream in which the prime minister of this country attempts to govern on behalf of all Canadians, not just those who endorse his ideological crusade. Silly, I know….

    I don’t care about the “he’s kissing the ring” BS. This is what Canada’s prime minister should be doing in the national interest.

    Mark Carney in Colchester-Cumberland riding in NS, which was represented last time by Conservative Stephen Ellis. Noisy protesters shout he is controlled by the World Economic Forum. Carney puts his finger to his ear and jokes: “I’m listening for the orders coming through.”

    I honestly can’t fathom Canadians who excuse Trump’s threat to unilaterally impose 25 percent tariffs on three quarters of our exports, in breach of the trade deal he signed. “I’m glad he’s doing it,” said one idiot. Blinded by their hatred of Trudeau, they are apparently

    A future Liberal government would provide $2,000 travel bursaries to send Canadians camping. I think that might be the stupidest thing I've heard so far in this election.
