@GBNEWS Read what was changed at the 11th hour by H Lutnick. Trump ambushed Canada & the US was effectively annexing Canada. It has nothing to do about disliking each other.
They wanted control over who Canada trades with, they wanted to get rid of french usage, tariffs were ⬆️ed &more

[Mark Carney @MarkJCarney]

The Tragically Hip wove the fabric of our country into their music.

Ten years on from their final concert, I was given the chance to reflect on what the Hip meant to Canada — and to Canadians.

BREAKING: Howard Lutnick tries to justify tariffs on Canada by absurdly claiming that Canada is hostile toward unions. 30% of Canadian workers belong to a union. Only 10% do in America. They either don’t know what they are talking about or they are lying.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

Our closest ally. Our critical trading partner.

And Trump is hitting Canada with 50% tariffs.

What the actual fuck are we doing?

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Another week in Trump’s dysfunctional government:

A new trade war with Canada, our closest ally.

Threats to start a new war and “bomb the shit” out of Oman.

Ignoring climate change while forest fires burn communities.

[Admiral James Stavridis, USN, Ret. @stavridisj]

Fact: Canada has a brave and professional military. It has deployed into combat with us many times, including D-Day. Canadian troops, under my NATO command, faced intense fire in Afghanistan where many were killed in action. I honor their memory and salute them. 🇨🇦 https://t.co/9kkvWXHTub

So here's why Carney told Trump to stick it and where to stick it

[Rasmus Jarlov @RasmusJarlov]

This is ridiculous. These are terms you ask for from an enemy after defeating them in a world war.

That is how the USA now treats its 'allies'. And that is why every country in its right mind wants out of the relationship.

When Trump attacks our neighbors, silence is not the answer. Stand up for Canada. Stand up for democracy.

[Don Winslow @donwinslow]

"President Trump demands Canada change its French language, Quebec culture and Canadian identity as a condition for reversing tariffs. This is no longer about a trade deal-it is about a takeover of Canada's sovereignty and identity."

[Bloomberg @business]

“I’m not surprised, I am relieved. I think that we were on the brink of a deal that would have been a bad deal for Canada and also, frankly, a bad deal for the United States. And I'm glad that that didn't happen,” Former Deputy Prime Minister of Canada @cafreeland tells @EenaRuffini and @davidgura on Bloomberg This Weekend.

Memorable emotional moments @serenawilliams @RafaelNadal #carllewis @Paris2024 @Olympics ❤️❤️❤️

I’m honored to have performed tonight, for the Paris 2024 Opening Ceremony, and so full of joy to be back in one of my very favorite cities! Most of all, I’m so happy to be celebrating these amazing athletes, with all their stories of sacrifice and determination, pain and perseverance. All of you have been so focused on your dream, and whether or not you take home a medal, I hope that being here means that it has come true for you! You should all be so proud, we know how hard you have worked to be the best of the best. Stay focused, keep going, my heart is with you! - Celine xx…

Joe Biden has earned his place among the best and most consequential presidents in American history.

I am so proud to serve under his leadership, and thankful for his unwavering focus on what is best for our country.

[Barbra Streisand @BarbraStreisand]

Joe Biden will go down in history as a man who accomplished significant achievements in his 4 year term. We should be grateful for his upholding of our democracy.
