We are cursed to live in interesting times.
Today President Trump is enforcing 25% tariffs on Canadian Goods going to the USA. He has mistaken Canadian kindness and honour for weakness. Expecting Canada to just sit back and take it. On the World Stage he has proclaimed that the USA doesn’t need our natural resources, oil, wood, energy……
Like all bullies, to make himself great, he needs to make others weak. He has no concept of honoring previous agreements or working together towards a win-win solution. His first week in office was spent dissolving agreements and hard won rights by executive order, more like a dictator than a president. Now valuable resources will be spent in the court system to determine if the orders are legal or not. It seems like a chaos technique to hide the true agenda.
A major air disaster happens in Washington DC with more than 60 lives are lost. His response was that the disaster was due to DEI. How can Diversity, Equality and Inclusion have caused this human disaster? Probably underfunding and over work were contributing factors.
As his neighbour to the north, we have no say in USA politics.
But he is working very hard to lose the respect of the world. The American concept of innocent until proven guilty has been flushed down the drain. Acting like gestapo ICS has started raids to remove “illegal immigrants” without warrants or proof. People are no longer free to go about their lives without fear of being arrested and removed from the USA just because they look like an immigrant and don’t have their proof of citizenship on them.
Promises are being broken internationally. All international funding has been cancelled. And the solution to the Middle East conflict is to remove all the Palestinians from their homes in the “demolition zone”….
Yes, we are cursed to be living in interesting times……..
