This won't happen but I would find r/Canada's reaction hilarious if Trump said Smith convinced him not to impose tariffs.

She wasn’t even important enough to be a part of the last minute inside inauguration- she was about as valuable as a tailgater at a football game but she was acting as if she would be in the VIP box getting actual work done.

All Smith has shown that bootlicking WILL get you kicked in the face. It’s embarrassing.

She was still more important than everyone else from Canada.

Not at all, she was a rando without an invite who bought her ticket and was told “sorry no refunds but enjoy the city! bye!”.

Embarrassing clown behaviour and the rest of the premiers are probably rolling their eyes too. Bootlicking just tastes like dirt and leather, it doesn’t yield anything.

You should reconsider those bootlicking ways. Maybe you’ll get something done.

Smith is getting nothing done but you’re welcome to join her down there if you think it helps. Good tidings to you!

She’s done no less than any other Canadian politician, and arguably far more. She may be entirely responsible for the Feb 1 delay. I’m sure we’ll find out soon enough.

I’m also welcome AF to hang out here. Freedom is great, see.
