Canada is strongest when we are united.
Today, I met virtually with the Premiers to discuss the suspension of trade negotiations with the United States and outline our next steps to protect our interests and support Canadian workers and businesses.

Dear Trump,
Your 50% tariffs went into effect today.
So, from Canada: Fuck your tariffs. Fuck your bullying. Fuck your threats. Fuck your tantrums. Fuck your bullshit.
You wanted to punish Canada. Instead, you united us. GO FUCK YOURSELF.
Signed,
40 million Nasty Canadians 🇨🇦
BREAKING: Canada just stood up to Trump.
Mark Carney:
“In recent weeks, we made important progress toward improving Canada’s position as having the best deal in the world with the U.S.
However, that progress has not been enough to meet our objectives for Canadians. As a result, this evening, I have decided to suspend trade negotiations with the U.S. and have directed Canada’s negotiators to return to Ottawa. They have worked hard, in good faith, to defend the interests of Canadians throughout these negotiations up until the very last minute. However, last-minute changes in the U.S. proposed terms were unfair, uneconomic, and called into question the reliability of any deal.
At midnight tonight, the U.S. intends to impose a 50% tariff on roughly $28 billion of Canadian goods. Canada will match those tariffs dollar for dollar to protect our workers and businesses.”
When you vote in a leader, you hope they have the character to act in the best interests of the country, especially when the decisions are hard and the path ahead is unclear. To think and act with principle, rather than emotion or fear.
Canadians are very well served in this moment.
Thank you, Prime Minister Carney.
Donald Trump doesn’t fix shit, he destroys.
He destroys everything he touches.

El capitán de la Selección de Irán, Mehdi Taremi, explotó contra la FIFA y la organización de Estados Unidos.
“Esta es una Copa del Mundo desastrosa. Como jugadores profesionales no podemos jugar una competición en estas condiciones, no está bien ni es justo. Si la FIFA piensa que esto es justo, tema de ellos, pero no lo es. ¿Quién debería solucionar este problema por nosotros? ¿La FIFA? ¿EE.UU.? ¡No sé! Díganme un nombre. El presidente de la FIFA, Gianni Infantino, vino a nuestro vestuario después del primer partido contra Nueva Zelanda y dijo que iba a resolver todos los problemas, pero en realidad, la FIFA no hizo nada. Respondiendo la pregunta de: "¿Sienten que los organizadores de la Copa del Mundo, incluidos la FIFA y los funcionarios estadounidenses, prefieren que Irán sea eliminado de la competencia?", digo: Tenemos que luchar contra absolutamente todo. No podemos quedarnos en el país, viajamos y nos sometemos a controles migratorios cada vez que queremos jugar, ahora no podemos quedarnos en Seattle y tenemos que volver a Tijuana. Han hecho todo lo posible para eliminarnos, entonces desde nuestra perspectiva, sí, creo que lo quieren así, nos quieren afuera”.
