We have to diversify our trade partnerships and build stronger trading relationships within our own country.

To do that, we’ll invest big in the infrastructure that gets Canadian goods to market — by air, rail, road, and sea.

Proud Canadian.
Jean Cretien is LIT tonight 🔥

His age is not stopping him from beautifully articulating Canadian National Pride.

Chretien, just now.
From one old guy to another. Stop this nonsense.
My God, he's nailing it. Winded, but spot on.
OMG, Chretien just said "and somebody burned the Whitehouse" referring to 1812. 😅😅😅
Watching the Liberal leadership vote and just noticed, don't come at me, our politicians in Canada are much better looking than (snicker, snicker) some other country in N. America.
Just a mild observation 🤗

Former PM Chretien reminding us of Canada’s greatness and strength. We do what we need to do and then go on about our business. Maybe we need to shout our success and power every once in a while. I love Chretien, he embodies our values. #canada

How true this is. History will repeat. Are you ready?

Absolutely!
YES 🇨🇦

Canada is indeed going forward with all tariffs. AND removing US product from shelves.

Why?

Because when a man threatens to break into a home and then says “psych” one still keeps the door locked.

Good morning everyone ☕️

Canada is solid. We rock.

Donold is caving because we hit back. Chicken shit that he is. Jack Daniel's is crying. US Tourism is taking a hit. The stock market isn't happy. TSLA⏬️

We got this❣️

Okay so if you spend 4 years campaigning on how “broken” the country is, I guess if you add 12 Canadian flags to every presser, people will forget that you’re too cowardly and unpatriotic to get your security clearance so you can be briefed on foreign security by CSIS during a time of threat?

Americans (myself included) tend to laugh off the Trump noises about annexing Canada as obvious nonsense, but the rest of the world is taking the threat seriously.

Our media should reflect that reality and hold him accountable for the serious damage he’s causing.
You can watch Christiane Amanpour realize in real time on CNN just how seriously Canadians are taking the annexation threats.

Being Canadian right now means watching U.S. politics like a neighbour whose fence is on fire—especially with Trump’s tariff threats. We’ve been here before, but it never gets less frustrating. We’re done. #cdnpoli #TradeWarsAgain
