Summary
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, in a private meeting inadvertently broadcast via a hot mic, warned that Donald Trump is seriously considering annexing Canada to secure its critical mineral resources.
Speaking to business and labor leaders, Trudeau claimed Trump’s administration is keenly aware of Canada’s resource wealth and sees annexation as a means to control it.
The comments, cut off after staff realized they were audible, underscore growing economic and political tensions.
He also stressed the need to diversify trade, noting, “Geography means we’re always going to both benefit and be challenged by trade with the United States.”
You have my understanding and support. Canadians please take care of yourselves.
You had our back in Afghan/Iraq, you have brothers and sisters in the US that will help.
It will take the unity to sabotage any Nazi/maga plans.
They’ll intern and deport them
That’s something that’s been on my mind lately. I wouldn’t be able to hide anyone in my home or lay low because I’ve been vocal about my beliefs my whole life. I’ve been to more than enough protests to know there’s some sort of facial recognition on me, and I’ve been vocal enough online in recorded social media. The state of surveillance and tech advances in this age is going to make it difficult for anyone to organize and support each other. There’s almost no way to stay off the radar and everyone has a cell phone and smart speaker at home listening to their every word.
Absolutely… Then there’s the chilling effect that comes with it. People not even attempting to organize because they know what can happen if they do.
