CANADA burned the bridges? Oh, fuck this guy.

He's a mouth piece for trump. Lost his congressional seat but was rewarded.

We should cancel the F35 contract. Lack of good faith trading

We need gripens and mirages instead!

I'd suggest we go down and trash the White House again, but weirdly the Americans are already doing it all on their own.

cyborganism@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 308d

Trump is already doing it.

I mean, they were complaining about immigrants taking their jobs, but it's a weird place to start.

Medic8teMe@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 308d

I don't know how they'll ever get this ballroom built without immigrants.

The real job of everyone in the Trump administration is to polish Trump's knob. Forget the titles.

phoenixz@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 306d

Well doh, yeah it did!

Not only did us fuckers refuse to become the 51st state, the gall, we also put out an ad showing he's wrong, how dare we?

Get this gaslighting piece of shit out of our country.

He repeatedly lies and tells us it’s all our fault, when Trump was the one who violated our treaties and continues to threaten to annex us.

At what point do we send this jackass home? I’m serious. He serves zero purpose except to antagonize us. Every day he is in our country is an insult, and further that he is suppose to embody the nearly 200 year friendship we’ve shared with our cousins to the south is insane.

I don’t think I will ever forgive the US for how much disrespect they’re showing us.

They’re certainly not making me want to accept any deal with them, in fact, I’m going to hold any capitulation to them AGAINST our government, forever.

I’m not afraid of whatever consequence comes from expelling this guy anymore.

As i said elsewhere, this guy is so good for canada. We are more united now than any other time in my life, all because this guy never stops shooting his mouth off. Making him ambassador to canada was a yuge strategic error on Trump’s part.

swordgeek@lemmy.ca · 44 pts · 308d

Fuck this dirtbag.

He's a Dutch white supremacist, and only has a job to piss of Canadians. We need to show him the door (border).

No thanks for visiting, Pete. Please don't come again.

“Donald Trump could do the only thing that a leader of a sovereign nation could do when a neighbour, another sovereign nation, decided to interject itself into American politics,” he added. “Canada slammed that door shut all by itself.”

Pete, you can absolutely go fuck yourself, and the DARVO horse you're riding.

I hope Eby's upcoming ads cause the diaper don another stroke.

masterofn001@lemmy.ca · 19 pts · 308d (9 replies)

Good idea.

Shall we start with the peace bridge connecting NY and Ontario?

avidamoeba@lemmy.ca · 10 pts · 308d (4 replies)

I hope CAF have a contingency for that. 🤭

Is that still running? I rode on that 47 years ago!

Snowpix@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 307d

Yup! I rode on it a couple years ago, it's still a very popular attraction.

rockettaco37@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 307d

At this point calling it that is a bit of an oxymoron.

And I literally say that as a Buffalonian...

Snowpix@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 307d (2 replies)

And let's not bother finishing the Gordie Howe bridge either. Not like we'll need it at this rate.

masterofn001@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 307d (1 reply)

Nah, finish that one, and shut down the privately billionaire owned Ambassador bridge.

The guy is a cunt. Like his father.

It's pronounced Moron:

Snowpix@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 307d

Good point! We don't need that bridge either. Fuck the Morouns.

floofloof@lemmy.ca · 18 pts · 308d

What a soulless slimebag this man is.

humanspiral@lemmy.ca · 16 pts · 308d

Canada has always had the negotiation position that tariffs are bad for everyone. There is a factual rationale for the view. Unjustifiable fake emergency basis for tariffs seems especially bad.

The only worthwhile approach "to adjust to changing world order" (recent Carney quote) is to stop military cooperation with evil empire who has a hybrid war against Canada. Anything else is gaslighting us in service to empire's mission of destroying us.

cheeseburger@piefed.ca · 15 pts · 308d

This guy should be ridiculed every step he takes in our country. Does he walk around anonymously between interviews in Ottawa saying idiotic gas lighting garbage and get away with it? Clown.

Hoekstra is what happens when hemorrhoids become sentient.

US ambassador can go suck a fuck!

How exactly does one suck a fuck?

He can eat fuck and go shit himself.

SlartyBartFast@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 308d

Just like Doug Ford!

Washedupcynic@lemmy.ca · 11 pts · 307d

No, America burned the bridges, with napalm.

BC_viper@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 308d

Every breath he draws is a waste of oxygen. It would be more beneficial if a mosquito breathed that air.

Jhex@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 308d

Oh no... did we burn the bridge that allowed us to brown nose and coddle a rapist, convicted felon, pedophile?!

Subscript5676@lemmy.ca · 9 pts · 308d

STFU and GTFO Porkstra

nova_ad_vitum@lemmy.ca · 8 pts · 307d (2 replies)

Stop giving this clown free press. He is not a consequential person. Trump doesn't know his name, he has no part in diplomatic policy , and is finding out about Trump's moves on Twitter like everyone else. He can be ignored.

lemmy_outta_here@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 307d (1 reply)

Respectfully, i want every word this guy says broadcast across the country. He has been a miracle for unifying the country. Every Canadian i talk to seems to hate him and i just love that. He has harmed the advance of MAGA more than any single person inthe country.

nova_ad_vitum@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 307d

I mean okay sure but Trump was doing that fine by himself and this guy's entire job is to cheerlead for whatever deranged nonsense Trump does after finding out about it in the news. So he can be safely ignored.

JohnnyCanuck@lemmy.ca · 7 pts · 308d (1 reply)

Name a worse ambassador than this fucknut. I'd really like to read about whoever it is.

kent_eh@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 308d

Name a worse ambassador than this fucknut.

There are a few of them

Sunshine@lemmy.ca · 7 pts · 308d

No you did!

SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 307d (2 replies)

Ok, this asshole is easy to ignore, but Doug Ford building a populist brand while antagonizing the US is great for Ford Nation but is killing CDN industry. Trump vs. Trump will not end well.

avidamoeba@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 307d

Yeah, it's temporary feelgud vibes. That's not to say that the vibes aren't important but strenghtening Ford is not a good idea because he does a lot of damage to Ontario as we speak.

swordgeek@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 307d

Absolutely, and Ford is trying to appear like a True Canadian Saviour as he lines up to sabotage Poilievre and shoot for the reins of the CPC.

In reality, he's a sell-out, a thug, a drug dealer, and a power-hungry populist.
