@chris There’s a greater-than-zero chance that he tries to conquer Canada.

I actually agree with him that we need to improve our border security, but it’s not immigrants or fentanyl that I worry about. -

Well, we all know Trump’s ‘border crisis’ is a fabrication. Just as it has been at their Southern border.Trump just needs there to be some kind of ‘crisis’ in order to leverage people’s fears to drive his agenda, and it turns out that racism plays well with his base.

We’ve just committed $1.3B to address a made-up problem, based on the impulsive musings of a compulsive liar.I can just see the convicted felon bragging to his crony pals about how when he says ‘jump’ Canada asks ‘how high?’.
And he’ll slap us with tariffs anyhow, because it was never about the border. ️
Ottawa proposes 24/7 surveillance of Canada-U.S. border, new 'strike force' to stave off tariff threat | CBC News
The federal government is promising a suite of measures to disrupt the flow of fentanyl and strengthen 24/7 surveillance of the Canada-U.S. border — including outfitting the RCMP with helicopters, drones and mobile surveillance towers and creating a new "strike force."

@Crispius @stephanie @chris I wonder if that's why Chrystia Freeland said "fuck this". Because as a key negotiator in the previous trade deal (that fucked us on copyright) she knows...
Courage isn't an attribute of our class of politicians
(and just to put it into context, PP would bend even further)

PP is campaigning to become Obergruppenführer under the new reich. -

It looks like we’re not going to find anything out until after the Christmas break, as JT plans to ‘use this time to reflect’. -

@stephanie
That’s what I took from this:Justin Trudeau taking the time to reflect after Chrystia Freeland’s departure
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is taking some time to reflect after Chrystia Freeland’s bombshell resignation, the natural resources minister said on Tuesday.

My [completely amateur & speculative] take on this whole debacle is that there has been a plan to replace JT in the works for quite a while, and it involves crowning Mark Carney as JT’s replacement. (Somebody on here called it Ignatieff 2.0 and I think the that’s pretty accurate.)Whether or not JT is in on the plan is unclear.
I think Freeland either caught wind of the plan, or Carney wrote some/all of the financial statement and she refused to put her name to it. Either way, Freeland smells blood in the water and decided to use the opportunity to establish herself as distinct and separate from the PM and prepare for her candidacy in the oncoming leadership challenge.
I expect JT to step down at some point, but something needs to be done about getting Carney a seat in the house, so that might determine the timeline.
I suspect a prorogation of parliament will happen at some point to allow the liberals to select a leader before the writ is dropped.

@timlocke @Crispius @stephanie @hub either one. He’d be on a sinking ship. Who wants to be FM for 30 days to 6 months. Let LeBlanc do that.
