Summary
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau taunted Donald Trump after Canada defeated the United States 3-2 in overtime in the 4 Nations ice hockey competition in Boston.
Trudeau’s viral post, “You can’t take our country – and you can’t take our game,” came amid ongoing tensions between the leaders.
Trump, who previously mocked Trudeau as “Governor Trudeau” and floated annexing Canada, had earlier imposed tariffs on Canadian produce.
Amid boos of the American anthem and a surge in Canadian nationalism, the rivalry highlights both political and sporting divisions between the nations.
While this isn’t technically US internal news, it’s North American news which goes against the spirit of this sub.
North America is part of the world
That is immature, & counter-productive:
Trump’s playing a negative-sum-game, committed to crushing & destroying the world, so-long-as he gets to be “king” ruling it’s destruction, glorying in his “status” & "wealth,
… & amplifying his ideologically-motivated violence against Canada, for stupid childish “status”, is something any woman who survived years of domestic-violence/abuse could have told him, isn’t either wise or intelligent.
Canada NEEDS to replace political-parties with something intelligent, honest, and responsible!
Immediately.

Disagree entirely. Trump has been absolutely insulting and denigrating our country, calling it the 51st state with Trudeau as its governor. We needed our Prime Minister needed to clap back if only for unity and national pride.
I would’ve thought that would be more aimed towards his own people, as patriotism. Not necessarily a taunt. But. You know. Both are also good.

Is this supposed to be our response to Trump’s threats? Can’t say it instills much confidence, or any actually.
I want to understand your point. What are you being critical of with your comment? It’s not clear.
It’s an alright response but I’d hope for some more Canadian made chirping. Next time he should just shout:
Eh? Give your fucking balls a tug.
Fuck you Shoresey
“Fuck you Reilly, I made your mum so wet that Trudeau deployed a 24 hour infantry unit to stack sandbags around my bed”
Shoresy 😊
My only regret is not serving my country and I think about it every time I go to war with your mom’s ass
Like trump can find his balls, they’re loose in Musk’s mouth
I suggest he lets that one marinate!
Marinate? Or do they literally say marinade? 😆
Nah, it was late and i chose the wrong dictionary suggestion 😁
I was going to say Trudeau should call him “vice president trump” to point out how subservient he is to musk but… I guess that is why there is the “governor” rhetoric. Like always, it is fascists projecting. trump might only be a VP in his own admin but that is still better than a governor and all that stupidity.
Trump is Putin’s apprentice, invested-in for decades, as The Kremlin Papers identified.
Currently Trump is beta to both Putin & Musk, … however … brains change, sometimes gradually, & sometimes suddenly.
I’m betting that Trump will break-through-a-barrier in his brain’s function, converting him to his needed psychopathy, this-year, if not this-late-winter-or-spring.
I’m not certain that Musk will like being truly-beta to Trump, when that happens, though…
it’s us who would be more-jeapordized, however, by that personality-punctuation…
( there are actual fMRI image-sequences of multiple-personality-disorder patients switching-between-personalities, showing the change-in-brain-energization, now in our scientific record. )
Presuming that “status quo” isn’t going to be disrupted is exactly the sort of belief that knifed the Dems in the US, in their back.
Presuming that the current-personality-of-Trump is going to remain unchanged, given the ferrocious forces acting on that poor brain, seems to me, a brain-injury survivor, who has massively altered the function of this brain…
( I spent literally years much-of-the-time catatonic, in the late 1980’s & very-early 1990’s )…
to be incompetent: normal-people just don’t understand how-greatly a brain can change, in short duration, or long…
Even if it was caused by an aneurism/stroke, would his cult permit him to be removed-from-power??
Not a chance, so long as he remained alive.
So, if he loses his mirror-neuron-system, becoming incapable of any empathy, whatsoever, in such a brain-change,
…would that change the rules of ( the nature of ) “who” is governing the US?
Certainly.
But what it wouldn’t do, is get the then-psychopath removed from power.
THAT is the threat we’re currently under, even-though nobody else on this world considers this to be a real-threat…
So, I place my imaginary-dime ( the only thing I bet, ever: no material-gain/loss, ever, & only imagine the physically-tiniest-coin: keep it from being the gambling that people get their lives sucked-into ) on it happening, & all the world places their bet on it not-happening.
( this also identifies that it is the role which ought be protected, & if a person’s personality changes enough, or if they get caught being corrupt, then they HAVE TO be removed from the role, but NONE of the political-party rigged governments hold to this standard!
Because they aren’t in it for the benefits of our countries: they only want their-own rule! )
I was absolutely-right about him openly becoming a Putin-ally, about there being “the Caucasian Serpent” ( 1 of the 3 empires prophecied in the Christian’s bible, in the end-times ), & I’m betting that I’m right on this point, too.
Hopefully I’m wrong!
Wouldn’t the world be better if I always was?
Certainly establishment’s-beliefs would be more comfortable…

“Special Advisor to Mr. Musk” or “Assistant to the Assistant to President Trump”
Honestly probably not a good idea. Trump is petty and vindictive.
It’s plays excellently for the domestic audience, and making Trump stop being mean was never an option.
So far, I haven’t heard any response at all from Trump.
Trudeau is retiring, it doesn’t matter. And you need Trump to be vindictive in 12 hours or it won’t happen? Seriously?
And you need Trump to be vindictive in 12 hours or it won’t happen?
Knowing Trump, yeah, probably.
Jeez we have rolling 30 day delays in tariff wars. Trump is stupid in lots of ways but you/he doesn’t lose sight of being slighted that quickly. How long was it between Obama mocking him at the dinner and him running for president? Lot more than 12 hours.
I see little chance that was the only reason for running, and the people he doesn’t like tend to slight him a lot - far more than he could keep track of even if he was intellectually normal. By all appearances, the input -> brain -> shitpost/order chain on the guy is very short and fast.
He could have fired back and said “now it’s 50%”, I guess. It’s also possible someone will remind him. Either way, I don’t think it will resonate as a huge mistake a year from now.
Being offended is not quickly forgotten. Ever hear the phrase “it’s not what you say, it’s how you make people feel”? That’s because emotions are held for a loonngg time. Next time tariffs come up it’s just a feeling of “Trudeau’s an asshole, fuck him and Canada”.
Don’t forget, he already hates Trudeau, and probably won’t love his successor either.
You gain nothing from bowing down to or fearing fascists. They should be openly mocked for the weak, cowardly fuckstains they are.
Simply not saying anything isn’t bowing down. Trump is one bad night’s sleep from literally invading Canada.
Further, wounded-narcissism is the primary-motivation behind being a mass-shooter.
Increasing the wounded-narcissism is petty.
It “solves” the wrong problem.
Trudeau proved that he didn’t understand tactics when the counter-tarrifs he put against the US in the last Trump-trade-war were damaging Democrat regions, instead of only tarriffing Republican regions.
I see no reason he would have set-up correct strike-against-the-aggressor tarrifs, this-time.
So, instead he increases Trump’s likelihood of getting more-violent against Canada??
Immaturity cannot be permitted to rule our countries, XOR we are accommodating our rulers to railroad our viability, itself.
( this also indicates that we require a culture of enforcing-all-our-growing-up, instead of the petty MSM culture we’ve allowed to mesmerize all our world, & we need it now. )

He already hates Trudeau and is taking it out on Canada. There’s not a whole lot more he’s going to be able to do without pissing off all his non-russian masters.
Nah Trump hates Canada and Trudeau. He really does want to annex it, the only question is peacefully or not.
The answer is “Not”.
Cowering from bullies doesn’t make them ignore you. It just reinforces that you’re an easy target. You stand ground, and be ready to pop em in the face if they come for you.
You might even get the worst of it, but from then on they know they can’t come for you without having to pay for it.
Lol it’s not cowering. It’s letting Trump get distracted by something else. Lots of people here are 14 and very badass. A literal war is not out of the question and Canada would lose. “What are you going to do, stab me?” - Man that was stabbed. Trudeau would be better to just let Trump get distracted by the next thing.
The fact that a war isn’t out of the question is exactly why we puff ourselves up and look as intimidating as we possibly can. Trump is not simply going to ignore a free meal of all our national resources, but he might give it a pass if he realises we’ll bite back.
Yeah you do that politically and militarily. Not with taunting and snarky hockey comments.
Yeah you do that politically
If the PM saying publically “You can’t take our country” isn’t an example of doing just that, I don’t know what would be.
