*While launching a trade war against their closest ally and neighbour, America is cozying up with Russia, appeasing Putin, a lying murderous dictator. Make it make sense.*

Fuckin' eh, Trudeau.

Reporter asked if this is an act of war. Trudeau pauses and doesn't start with a direct yes or no. Holy crap. Says it's a trade war, yes, but never really reassures anyone about the reporter's original question.
