Yeah.....unfortunately, the bumbling star of this sitcom has his finger on the button.
I am less concerned about that event than I am about the damage done to the relations between our two countries. There is serious and rapidly building anti-American backlash growing here. A ceremony over the soldiers who died in Afghanistan was disrupted by protesters last week, which pretty much carried the tail "**** America" was one of the biggest signs.
I my 70 years I have seen some really sick times between our countries, as we were with you in Afghanistan George W. Bush was launching his own trade war that cost this province alone, 12,000 jobs. So with Trump launching yet a third attack and lying about us "stealing" and "cheating" does not sit well....and as was said on the radio by one of the protesters about taking it out on average every day Americans ..."who else do we have to send our message to? Trump isn't listening, maybe they will listen when their stores shut down because if it" a voluntary boycott."
I have never seen it this bad, we had tough times with you guys in the late 60's and 70's. It lasted until the second Reagan administration when Prime Minister Mulroney and Reagan sang Irish duets. Since then we've tolerated things but with 4,000 dead fighting YOUR war and be called "cheaters" by a man with the morals of bacteria is just too much for many Canadians.
The militant progressives have already infused anti-American rhetoric into local issues...a current referendum on a progressive electoral system is now backed with "we need this so we don't become like the Excited States." Trump is such a pathetic childish piece of **** we didn't really need another trade war to grow some hate....Trump is the anithema to what is "Canadian", and, frankly an insult to our way of life, 'live and let live' etc.
No, it would be safe to say that "the world's greatest friendship" has suffered catastrophic damage.
