Given Trump's dismissive comments about Carney's visit today, does the PM really want to sit in what @kevinmilligan.bsky.social has so aptly called the "Humiliation Chair" so that Trump can later characterize his visit as evidence of yet more "ass-kissing"? /x

Trump sneered as he recounted what other leaders supposedly said to him: "'Please, please, sir, make a deal; I'll do anything, sir.'" IMO @stewartprest.ca has it exactly right: the PM should move tonight to "reschedule" the meeting and just fly back to Ottawa. No explanation. /3

In times of peace Canadians have always spent as little as we can get away with on defence because we have never had to pay a price for our cheapness. But we have never faced a US president who is so openly committed to our elimination as a sovereign state. So that might be a game changer.
