Great speech from Trudeau, he is on his way out as prime minister and has been unpopular but no doubt he has had his finest moments lately. I wish Canada and a number of US states and sane US citizens could form their own nation or even a union at least. We'd be better off, anything is better than now. Americans will get hit hard by this too, so dumb. Trump is a fascist and brainwashed a cult called MAGA.
Compares Canada favorably to the US, suggesting a separate nation or union would be preferable, while characterizing Trump as fascist.

From Germany: This is what a leader talks like. Also it's nice to see how blunt yet still professional one can be when you are a capable politician who doesn't have to dance on eggshells for fear of non-reelection. On a worldwide financial side though, I pulled my retirement fund out of North American investments this morning. Better safe than sorry.

Canada must — simply must — join the European Union and, together with EU countries, create a defensive alliance. Every EU country should have the technology and capability to develop nuclear weapons, as well as nuclear weapons themselves. This would be the beginning of a new world. Unfortunately, America will drown in its own debt, but most Americans have chosen this path themselves, and they regret nothing!
Compares Canada to the EU and the U.S., advocating for Canada to join a defensive alliance and positioning nations hierarchically.
