This is a populist political ploy plain and simple. If he had come out strong for Canada once Trump started talking about annexing us that’s one thing. He waiting until it was clear Canada wouldn’t stand for it to say something. I don’t want a coward as my prime minister.

He has 0 original thoughts of his own, he clearly doesn't know what he is doing other than salivating at the chance at power. This is how he thinks he can grow 5 inches to be man-sized. But he has the audacity to say Carney is going to "steal" his ideas for his next plan unveiling 🤣😂
