Another Trump tantrum aimed at 🇨🇦. We’re a favourite and convenient target because he can’t control or coerce us. And facts matter: Canada paid for that bridge, which benefits both sides. We need to defend, diversify, and build—away from the 🇺🇸 chaos and instability.
The Canadian government agreed to pay for and operate the Gordie Howe international bridge in 2012 — Michigan Republicans opposed funding it.
At last report, construction costs had reached $6.4 billion.
But the bridge is jointly owned by Canada and Michigan.

Why is accountability happening everywhere except the U.S. in the Epstein case? A known sex trafficker had an incinerator on his property — and it was never searched?
This is no longer just a 🇺🇸 matter. It demands an independent international investigation, not by DOJ, POTUS, or SCOTUS.

From Trump’s view, great powers enforce spheres of influence—and resource-rich Canada sits in the U.S. zone. The new National Security Strategy asserts hemispheric “pre-eminence.” International law won’t shield us; it failed amid past U.S. interventions.

"As Trump is almost certainly unaware, Canada has a far deeper history of beating back U.S. designs than most outside Canada have ever known. That history is far more relevant now than it has been in a century—all thanks to a rupture that is only just beginning."
After the past few weeks, one thing is clear:
The U.S. under Trump is now Canada's greatest national security threat.
