Meinung: Solange Trump im Amt ist, ist Kanada in Gefahr. Deshalb ist es das Wichtigste, was wir tun können, uns selbst zu schützen

      I’m not worried about Trump. I’m worried about Trump AND what will come after Trump.

    2. These articles are distractions.

      Canadians should be more worried about who’s in Ottawa (or rarely there, that is) and what they’re doing than who’s in the Whitehouse.

      The last decade of futility was entirely brought on by Liberal policies. Economy, healthcare, crime, immigration…..it was all on us.

      Yeah I’m not sure this is just a Trump thing now. It’s a Billionaire oligarch resource grab. Everyone better get a set of bear arms.

      Getting on the EU bandwagon would be the best thing for Canada. Better food standards and we have the commodities the EU is lacking cutting off Russia. Team non-chlorinated chicken.

    5. So instead of worrying about the very real issues at home that are completely of our own doing (after all, governments that did not have our best interest at heart were elected, then re-elected, and now we have one that looks like it could go either way), we should keep worrying about Trump like the boomers who keep pulling up the ladder behind them?

      I’m good. If tariffs had this much of an impact on our economy (newsflash: they didn’t really, they just accelerated existing problems/cracks), then maybe we should look at strengthening our economy with our tax dollars, removing red tape, and generally removing barriers to us having a productive economy.

      The TDS is so real and I know everyone wants a scapegoat, the real people we should be blaming are dating Katy Perry & some are still elected MPs. Jury is out on Carney.

      If we want change we need to vote for it

    6. I am more worried about who comes after the incompetent Trump. Imagine what it would be like if one of the next presidents is not only as corrupt as Trump but also competent.

      Be afraid and vote Liberal – we promise we won’t continue to destroy the country like the entire last decade. This time is different. Trust us, this media outlet funded by your Liberal government /s

    8. Better disarm the population & fund another countries military while calling it “our” military spending.

      It’s not just Trump, it’s the whole damn republican menagerie and their oligarch masters.

      The world is at risk because Trump’s goon squad will all be arrested once the Democrats take back power. Do you think that Noem, Bondi or Bovino want to get arrested? No, these goons will go full fascist to keep their selves out of prison. The only way relations between our countries are restored is that Trump himself is held accountable. Do you think Trump wants to be held accountable? No, he will destroy the world before he is held accountable.

    11. I’m in rural Alberta and some of my neighbors adore him.

      It’s sickening.

      Some have become a little more aware and are not bragging about wanting to join the USA but some still do.

    12. Yet liberals have done nothing to fortifiy our defenses and even want to take away what little arms we have, seems like they dont take it seriously.

      Either liberals are incompotent or its just being used as a fear tactic to keep the fear voting for liberals that do absolutley nothing to defend against USA.

    13. Another hour, another post about the US on /r/Canada

      🙄

      Can we focus internally for once?

      I’m not always a fan of The Star’s opinion pieces but this one was pretty good. Well said.

    15. Nothing will change here. Not now not after Trump. The problem is rewarding our own government for failure and letting both parties standards drop. Keep voting LPC, this country is comfortable with decline

      Nothing will change in this country for the better with the same policies. The country’s been getting “fixed” for the last 11 years, let’s keep up the decline

      Americans in general in Canada is the biggest s***hole on earth. Whoever gets into office next will likely be far more hostile to us than even Trump is. It doesn’t matter if it’s a liberal or republican. People need to stop thinking they can wait out three more years.

    17. MistressBeotch on

      America is losing wealth daily and the maga poor are getting poorer with no medical or food help. He really screwed over his base and they say thank you ..🙄

    18. Two things:

      1. Trump politics arent going anywhere. I saw a very good indication of this in an article I read recently. It featured a man in Honduras who is saving up to immigrate illegally to the US, but only when Trump is gone. Seeing as a major component of his election was blowback due to unchecked illegal immigration, and the message still does not seem to be getting through to either the Democrats or the prospective illegal immigrants….its clear Trump style politics will be around for a long time.

      2. Canadian efforts to „protect against Trump“ is squandered effort and showboating. Most of the damage Canada has taken over the last few years is self inflicted, domestically. The country has liquidated the value of its working and middle class and has nothing to show for it. This was going full steam ahead before Trump and hasnt changed course. All the things that our decedents of the future were depending on us for, like factories and infrastructure, is going to end up having never got built.

      It’s not just Trump. As long as we are not acting and trading as an independent nation we are at risk. Controversial thought, CUSMA puts Canada at risk

      I can’t be the only one who thinks it’s naive to talk about this as if it ends with Trump.

      The US went from ‚big friend that can be a bit of a dick‘ to hostile remarkably fast and we’d be foolish to think that’s because of one man, or that his absence will end it.

      More broadly, there’s a call for unity in this piece that I think is important but practically speaking I’m not sure how we get there.

      My life sits on the divide, I grew up in a rural conservative area and moved to ‚the city‘ at 20. My father’s family have been here for quite some time, while my mother’s family were WWII refugees. Though my extended family on both sides is quite conservative, my parents were NDP voters their entire lives.

      My view of what Canada is sits in both worlds and I feel like I can relate to grievances expressed across the political spectrum.

      I do think finding common ground is important if we want to retain our sovereignty but I don’t know where we even start.

      If the USA elected Trump twice. There is no reason to believe that they could never elect someone like him again or worse in the future.
