Donald will somehow blame our economic collapse on Biden, DEI, or someone else. It's clear that his policies have consequences and he doesn't believe they do or care if they do or both.

What's there to think about when it comes to sending law enforcement to enforce the law? Soft men creating hard times for everyone is exactly what's wrong with this country.

Hahaha we want to be friends you know like the ones who never have their wallet. The kind of friends that screw over their own people with laws and rules that the supreme leaders decide is “hate”. \nBoy he sure doesn’t want to talk about the dollar amount huh? We want free military and free money now!!!! Stomp stomp stomp give me my money daddy Trump. All you have to do is make a little effort on your end there Justin. All we are doing is reciprocating the kindness you show us. Your military members support you? \n\nPut it to a vote if you will not censor them I think you might get a sense of how out of touch you are with your own country. \n\nWe love Canadians we dislike the leadership and the smashing laws that take it out on the common citizen that don’t live in a drug riddled city. You know the majority of your citizens?
Extended critique of Canadian government policies, leadership, and laws affecting citizens, with calls for democratic accountability and expressions of economic/social grievance.

Critiques language policy implementation and claims French speakers receive preferential government job treatment, framing it as discrimination.

Mr. Trudeau if you hadn’t destroyed Canada’s economy we wouldn’t be in this situation of weakness. You are delusional to think that we should trust a liberal government to save us.
