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.”

    USA here. I believe (but I dont know for sure) that any “hot” attempt on Canada will bring forth blood on american streets.

    just hang in there and defend yourselves by any means you can while we try to get hands on this beast and strangle it.

    I am sorry.

      Doubt there will be anything “hot”; it’ll be threats of violence, being met with rational, thoughtful responses that will aim to save as many lives as possible.

        just 8 short years ago, could you have seriously contemplated that we would be engaged in this way on this thread?
