Trump warned he will impose additional tariffs on the European Union and Canada if they band together to “do economic harm” against the United States.

Get @#$%ed, Trump. Good read. Short but detailed about how partnered we are already and what our next priorities should be

    This is from a European view and while not the US the political spectrum suffers from the same problem.
    What some Canadians consider left is only relative.
    So this is your ‘liberal’ party?:

    And it’s a simple verifiable fact that voters decide on the goverment, so maybe it’s only in your mind that they’re not right-wingers.
    Maybe it’s an uncomfortable truth?

      I think your “European” view is overlooking basically all of Eastern Europe, and some of Western Europe too. I’m 100% on board for PIIGS leftism (+Corbyn +Melenchon), but don’t pretend that’s what “left” means everywhere in Europe.

      I love how everyone answering this question is taking an aggressive posture like I was defending or attacking something.

      Fun stuff. Thanks for answering anyway.

        I guess if you find my answer aggressive I’m right that it’s an uncomfortable truth for you.

          You said ‘your liberal party’ as if I would ever vote liberal. Swing and a miss there. Liberal is basically an insult to me.

          And then you claimed that I would somehow be uncomfortable with what you consider to be the truth. If that isn’t plainly passive aggressive tone then I am a wombat in need of a martini.

          All I was asking was if you thought of run-of-the-mill canucks as right-wingers, or if you meant the govt. From that you assumed my position and blithely attacked it.

          You are cute though, I’ll give you that.
