The CPC’s shocking inability to read the room continues. Everyone is trying to distance themselves from the US, and they come up with this?

    Incredible. His plan is to make us more economically dependent on our current greatest enemy, to make our military even more dependent on them.

    I don’t know if this is pure unawareness, or deliberately traitorous. But considering what Daniel Smith’s been doing, the latter won’t be surprising.

    Conservative leader says his government would push for an urgent renegotiation of CUSMA

    Because Donald Trump respected CUSMA so much the first time, right?

    Sure, Pierre - we should expand trade with a nascent fascist state that’s waging economic war on us, threatening our sovereignty, and has proven they won’t honour signed agreements. Good luck with that. What a fucking moron.

      I was gonna say that it’s very suspicious for him to want to “renegotiate” right away. More like he’s looking to completely sell us out. Fuck smöl pp.

      This right here. This is why cooperating with this demand is pointless. We should probably increase domestic investment in defense to create a significant deterrent against a potential American fascist military action. On that basis, not on the basis of spending requests by Trump.

    The fact he says he’s not doing this for president Trump feels on the nose, as if he is actually doing this for Trump.

    What logical plan relies on trade with the potential invader to fund our military? A more logical plan would be to source trade agreements with other countries looking to get away from the US market.

    Is he trying to be the only person to ever go from guaranteed super majority to guaranteed loss of party status? No one can be this tone deaf on accident.

    Either way I am here for it. Watching the Cons explode would only be better if the NDP and Greens received more votes for it.
