@Bratt_world The US has done nothing yet to rebuild any level of trust (or decency). 🇨🇦

[David J. Meldrum 🍁 @199DFD]

@HenriAGS Now is not time to stop. Nothing has changed. The corrupt Trump regime is still there. We must not lower our guard. Our trust has been violated. 🇨🇦

[David J. Meldrum 🍁 @199DFD]

@StateDept Disgraceful.

[David J. Meldrum 🍁 @199DFD]

@StateDept It’s a shame to see official branches of the US government reduced to sycophantic parrots or partisan rhetoric.

[David J. Meldrum 🍁 @199DFD]

@USAmbCanada The loss of trust and real feelings of betrayal which have resulted from the bad faith actions and rhetoric of the corrupt Trump regime make it impossible for us to put faith in your words. This saddens many Canadians, but we know the relationship has fundamentally changed. 🇨🇦

@richarddeitsch I write from Nova Scotia where we have a long and proud history of close ties to the US, especially New England. There is strong consensus here that America has turned on us. I am disappointed that so many in the US seem to support this. America First will result in America Alone

@SecRubio Hypocrisy Trumps Democracy. 😔

@USAmbCanada @usconshalifax @usconshalifax I’m sad to write that these posts are at best tone deaf to the dramatic loss of trust many Canadians feel now. Many of us would rather not hear from @USAmbCanada as we feel disrespected and deceived by his representations.

@usembassyottawa @USAmbCanada @elevatereport Trust is slow to build but quickly destroyed.

[David J. Meldrum 🍁 @199DFD]

@usembassyottawa Bullshit. You have no credibility in Canada nor anywhere. This is obvious MAGA propaganda posted on behalf of the failing and corrupt Trump regime. It is sad to see the US diplomatic corps used this way.

[David J. Meldrum 🍁 @199DFD]

@rshereme Not only is corrupt Trump clueless (total ignorance about mechanized warfare), he is openly expressing his disappointment that the Russian blitzkrieg attempt failed. This is horrific. God bless and keep Ukraine. 🇺🇦🇨🇦

@HeidiPGlobalTV @mikekelloway This response from government is unacceptable. No matter how you feel about the project, this repression of legitimate local journalists should alarm all Nova Scotians.

[David J. Meldrum 🍁 @199DFD]

@mattdagley Regardless of your opinion about the project, all Nova Scotians should be shocked and angered by this unjustified repression of legitimate local journalism.

[David J. Meldrum 🍁 @199DFD]

@theidiotocracy Full agreement. We (Canadians) can resist and reject the corrupt Trump regime without a descent into disrespect. We must demonstrate our values through our actions.

I very much appreciate Canada’s decision to remove seafood and fish products from its retaliatory tariff list. These tariffs would have caused tremendous harm to Maine’s lobstermen, disrupting one of their most important markets during the fall fishing season.

I urge the U.S. to respond to this show of good faith from our Canadian friends by returning to the negotiating table and working to amicably resolve this trade dispute.

Canada is not China. Canada is one of our closest allies and largest trading partners. Our economies are inextricably linked, especially in the border regions. Continuing with these tariffs will harm Maine families, small businesses, municipalities, manufacturers, and farmers.

When I spoke with U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer this week, I stressed the negative impact U.S. tariffs will have on Maine — especially our forest, food, cement, road salt users and producers. Tariffs will also stress municipal budgets, as small towns in Maine rely on Canadian road salt and cannot afford to incur extra costs to keep their roads safe in the winter.

@Abdnys I write this from the Canadian Province of Nova Scotia. We have a proud history of close ties with the US & New England. Nonetheless, Nova Scotians are overwhelmingly united on this. We will not be subjugated by economic, political or military weapons of the corrupt Trump regime.

[David J. Meldrum 🍁 @199DFD]

@MarkJCarney Thank you PM. Pride in our well spoken and professional team who defend Canada while demonstrating Canadian values including courage, inclusion, determination and honesty.

@AirCanada, you disappointed today. You cancelled our September trip for 2 to Berlin. We bought travel insurance through the Air Canada website and now lost $292 CAD. I’ve been an Aeroplan member since 1999, but customer service can’t help. This feels wrong.
