There you have it. The President of the United States. But hey, what do we expect from a Fraud, Felon, and Adjudicated Sexual Offender?

The irony would be laughable if it weren’t so horribly terrible. It’s called the Constitution, Mr. Felon-in-Chief. Remember that thing that you allegedly swore to uphold?

Never.

I think “Lesser Canada” is a better name than “South Canada”; as for East Canada, only if Greenland agrees! Inuit cultural connections make it a good fit, though!

Canada didn’t suddenly do an about face because of fear of the First Felon of the U.S. By the way, what is the Adjudicated Sexual Predator’s administration going to do to curb the cocaine, heroin, guns, and migrants that cross the border into Canada?

It’s pretty clear that 1/3 to just under half of the U.S. electorate is either stupid, willfully ignorant, or blatantly despicable. Is this what they asked for?

Standing with my friends and family back in Canada, indeed with all Canadians, as our nation deals with the actions of the gangster currently occupying the Oval Office, the First Felon of the U.S.

True. North. Strong. Free.

Canada is ready. We will fight.
I thank the Prime Minister for his powerful statement in response to the thuggish attacks by Trump.
We are unified as a nation. Our American cousins are divided.
We will kick at the darkness until it bleeds daylight.

We are in the fight of our lives. But Canadians have been called to be heroic before and we have never been defeated. This is our time to defend our country.
Le Canada est uni. Ce sera une période difficile, mais c’est l’occasion de bâtir notre nation et de célébrer notre solidarité.
Vive le Canada

Next, I think we should rename the piece real estate south of the Great Lakes “Lesser Canada”!

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

It’s completely apropos that flags are at half staff for the swearing in of the Felon-in-Chief as we mourn the passing of critical thinking in this society and witness the rejection of democratic principles by half of its populace in a favour of autocracy and oligarchy.
