A national currency is a signal of underlying economic conditions and the health of an economy. The collapse of the Russian ruble indicates the Russian economy is faltering badly. Could it be 1991 all over again?

Bravo Sir

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

I just left the Senate floor where I laid out the top ten ways Donald Trump is wrecking the country.

Every American should know the facts about this administration – so here they are:

(Thread 🧵)

[Kaja Kallas @kajakallas]

Our support for Ukraine’s independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity is unwavering.

Peace must be just and lasting.

Together with our partners, we remain committed to political, financial, economic, humanitarian, military and diplomatic support for Ukraine. (2/2)

@BaldwinRE Next date for tariffs -April 4. It’s part of his perseveration disorder

[Richard Baldwin @BaldwinRE]

Do you agree?
🤔 25% tariffs on MX & CA weren’t credible on 4 Feb; they aren’t credible for 4 March
👉Would cause radical disruption of US auto production etc
👉Tariff Tornado settled for face-saving gestures in Feb. He’ll do same in March
➡️🇨🇳 is a different story.
👉IMHO, he’s getting to his 60% stepwise; maybe to avoid leaving his fingerprints on a big S&P500 drop???

I was born in Glasgow, Montana, very near the US-Canadian border. (We even watched Canadian tv channels there.) The border is real, but it's also a friendly one. Let's please keep it that way. Americans have no better friends and allies in the world than Canadians.

[Raphael Glucksmann @rglucks1]

Trump veut annexer le Groenland, menace le Danemark, voit le Canada comme le 51e État américain.
Musk entend faire tomber les gouvernements des nations européennes les uns après les autres.
On se rend compte de la tempête qui se lève ou on garde notre tête dans le sable?

[Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski]

I’m beginning to think he might be psychotic.

[Jagmeet Singh @theJagmeetSingh]

Cut the crap, Donald. No Canadian wants to join you.

We are proud Canadians. Proud of the way we take care of each other and defend our nation.

Your attacks will hurt jobs on both sides of the border.

You come for Canadians’ jobs, Americans will pay a price.

[Jim Sciutto @jimsciutto]

I’ve known a lot of Canadians through the years - and lived there for one - and found them to be just as patriotic about their own country as Americans are of theirs and so loath to be absorbed into the U.S.

[Polling Canada @CanadianPolling]

An active threat to our nation

We must be ready to defend our home

[Justin Trudeau @JustinTrudeau]

I will always fight for this country, and do what I believe is in the best interest of Canadians.

[The Pearson Project @ProjectPearson]

Canada. Quiet chat.

We at the project take Canada’s side over all else.

Time for us all to take Canada’s side - from every walk of life, from coast to coast to coast, with all of our opinions and votes.

Take Canada’s side. 🧵

[Julia Davis @JuliaDavisNews]

Russia is enjoying this, since it justifies Putin’s imperialistic expansionism.

[REPUBLICANS AGAINST MAGA @michaelt5656]

A valid point! How would we know?

[𝚂𝚎á𝚗 𝙾’𝚂𝚑𝚎𝚊 Global News @ConsumerSOS]

Trump takeover talk: I wonder who is planning to change discretionary US travel plans in 2025 in view of the intensifying rhetoric targeting Canada. Send me email. Story to come. SOS at GlobalNews dot CA.

[Rep. Jim McGovern @RepMcGovern]

Trump’s Greenland, Canada & Panama talk is a distraction so everyone forgets what he promised.

He said he would end the war in Ukraine before he even becomes president. He promised cheaper groceries, $2/ gallon gas & no more taxes on overtime.

Don’t let him move the goalposts.

[David Frum @davidfrum]

The Plan

1) Threaten allies
2) Betray Ukraine
3) Offend democracies
4) Serve Putin
5) Empower China

[Andrew Coyne 🇺🇦🇮🇱🇬🇪🇲🇩 @acoyne]

All clear now? Whatever the end game may be, this country is under attack. By our neighbours.
The basic assumption of Canadian history, that we would always have a stable, democratic ally to our south, is over. They are not stable, not likely to remain democratic for much longer, and they are not, under Trump, our allies.

Trump suggests he could use military force to acquire Panama Canal and Greenland and 'economic force' to annex Canada https://t.co/mKDUEt46jW

[Pierre Poilievre @PierrePoilievre]

Le Canada ne sera jamais le 51e État. Point à la ligne.

Nous sommes un grand pays indépendant.

Nous avons dépensé des milliards de dollars et perdu des centaines de vies pour aider les Américains à riposter aux attaques d'Al-Qaida le 11 septembre. Nous fournissons aux États-Unis des milliards de dollars d'énergie de haute qualité et totalement fiable, bien en dessous des prix du marché. Nous achetons des centaines de milliards de dollars de produits américains.

Notre gouvernement Libéral, faible et pathétique, n’a pas réussi à faire valoir ces points évidents.

Je me battrai pour le Canada.

Lorsque je serai Premier ministre, nous reconstruirons notre armée et reprendrons le contrôle de la frontière pour sécuriser le Canada et les États-Unis. Nous reprendrons le contrôle de l'Arctique pour empêcher la Russie et la Chine d'y pénétrer.

Nous couperons les taxes et les impôts, réduirons les formalités administratives et donnerons rapidement le feu vert à des projets d'exploitation massive des ressources afin de ramener les chèques de paie et la production dans notre pays.

En d'autres termes, nous mettrons le Canada d’abord.
