Summary

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, in a private meeting inadvertently broadcast via a hot mic, warned that Donald Trump is seriously considering annexing Canada to secure its critical mineral resources.

Speaking to business and labor leaders, Trudeau claimed Trump’s administration is keenly aware of Canada’s resource wealth and sees annexation as a means to control it.

The comments, cut off after staff realized they were audible, underscore growing economic and political tensions.

He also stressed the need to diversify trade, noting, “Geography means we’re always going to both benefit and be challenged by trade with the United States.”

    Eh, with current events, most of us would take that title with open arms. However, title only, our work of undermining the current administration is just getting started. Most of us would rather be Canadian, but think about the chaos we will sew from the inside out.

    Anyway, sounds great, only allergies are fascists, thanks.
