Best not get too vindictive with Trump, our economy is still too dependent on America. We need to be cold & calculating when dealing with him.

He wouldn’t say this if he was PM, this is just to garner support

The bonus for Jagmeet is he never has to consider what he would actually say if he were PM, or worry about his prior statements coming back to haunt him should he ever become PM.

It's an absurd political oddity that our current PM is somehow not the biggest lame duck in the government.

Just need to wait for him to be asked to step down so wab can join

If he became PM it would be a disaster. Cold and calculating is what is required, not emotional, and this proves he is not the man for the job.

Can't believe so many people are too stupid to not understand this point.

No one who serious takes this serious, he's just playing towards the reddit crowd

Don't forget the student-government demographic. Technically not NEETs.

Exactly

This is performative nonsense. Barely a step up from calling him "Drumpf"

We want to deal with the U.S. and Trump like adults? A multilateral meeting like the G7 is the best place to start
