Well, it should tell you something then...
Canada isn't even a shell of its former self... Not that it was much at its peak...

Something that stood out to me:
>Canada PM makes virtue signaling tweet that will do nothing
>KSA gets pissed
>recalls ambassador
>Canadian amb expelled
>KSA students ordered to return
>Canadians banned from work visas in KSA (dealing with in my company)
Trudeau supposedly is a globalist who is nice to everyone, careful about twitter/messaging
Trump is considered crazy on twitter and a loose cannon.
There is not one instance of foreign policy unintended negative consequences from trump tweets (yet).
He’s tweeted about NK, Russia, China, Venezuela, Mexico, Canada, UK, France, Germany, japan, and others.
If you look, his tweets seem crazy at first but he uses them exclusively in concert with tangible FP objectives.
It’s like drunken boxing.

Whatever happened to them teaching their students in history that Canada was a big reason the US was successful in Europe during WW2?
You mean they really are not the United States’ big bad partner? I guess not.

Canada and the rest of the world need to realize that it is not the USA's daughter's wedding day every day of the year.

A significant portion of Canadians despise Americans. I'm sick and tired of wasting money and political capital on other countries. Worry about ourselves.

To be fair, arresting an important Chinese person isn't a "pussy" move. In fact its quite ballsy.

Canada acts like this is new treatment for them?
Nobody has ever, nor ever will, respect that country. Only reason they’re left alone is because of the US

Quit electing cuckolds to run your country.

Hey Trudeau... how bout you wipe away some tears for a minute and show Trump that you're willing to support him sometime other than when your back is against the wall.
And to my fellow Canadians- elect a leader who isn't a complete soy-fueled globalist cuck. This should be enough alone, right here, to show what happens when you elect a spineless coward. And believe me, you can and will survive such an election, and bad leader. We would know. We just survived 8 years of Obama.

granted that they have bolted on some free market features but at its core it is an authoritarian state tightly run from the top down
everyone is expected to behave in a rigid hive-minded way

Canada earned this. They believe they are too virtuous for Realpolitik. This is all about their inherent moral vanity, which at this point is really what their entire National Identity has become.
The next time any of you are there, watch the local news basically anywhere in the country-it's essentially just endless reaffirmation about how soft and mild and caring they are as a people. This guy saved a puppy, that guy planted a tree, somebody hugged a gay guy, etc. They just endlessly console themselves with how wonderful and admirable they are. It's bizarre. And Trudeau is the absolute personification of this empty suit, Flamingo-like approach to life. They just want us to sit back and admire their feathers. It's embarrassing how effete and inconsequential they have become.
I say ALL of this as someone who loves Canada, has visited it dozens of times (just went to BC in June for two weeks with the Pimp Family Road Show) since I was a boy, and wants them to succeed. But their trajectory is dismal and based on this kind of paralyzing moral vanity they engage in every time they talk about themselves.

Sooo they think they can thumb their noses at the US and US interests and they still expect us to ride in on a white stallion to save them from problems they have created for themselves? (These aren't real problems by the way.)
