Incoming Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney says he’s ready to meet with U.S. Donald Trump if he respects Canadian sovereignty and is open to talk about a common approach to trade.

“I am ready to sit down with President Trump at the appropriate time under a position where there is respect for Canadian sovereignty and we are working for a common approach, a much more comprehensive approach for trade,” Carney said.

This is the way. Leaders need to stop entertaining the orange idiot. He’s the shitty kid that breaks stuff to get attention. Trump needs a time out.

I like Iran’s attitude. They said “Whatever. Do what you’re going to do.” and didn’t bother having more of a conversation.

This is what Canada needs to do.

    He added he respects Trump’s concerns for American workers and about fentanyl.

    I wish the world outside the US trumpist media bubble would stop parroting this obviously bullshit “concern” about fentanyl. Drug addiction in the US is not a result of foreign agents. It is a mental health problem with social and economic roots. If fentanyl disappears today, it will be replaced by something else tomorrow. The trumpist framing of the issue is not only a bullshit pretext to circumvent USMCA but also actively hurts addicted people and their families. It’s just shit. Stop touching the shit folks.
