maybe Americans will get tired of being run by a gangster themselves, a highly ineffective gangster that just knows how to smash and grab & whine petulantly. And shit the bed daily. Trump messes it up by instinct.
The Nobel Peace Prize should go to those who bring real peace—not those giving Putin time to prepare for another war.
Putin, backed by China, Iran, and proxies, pretends Russia has won while struggling to send reinforcements without full mobilization. Soaring military costs and sanctions are crushing Russians' livelihoods, driving up prices. Now is the time to intensify pressure, securing a just peace for Ukraine—not surrendering to Putin’s ultimatums and his anti-Western coalition’s attempts to humiliate democracy.

Thank you, Charlie, and all our Canadian friends! I was born and raised in Boston to Irish immigrant parents. Before I retired recently, I really enjoyed my weekly business trips Toronto or Quebec. I have always loved Canada… in these times, I love you even more. Thank you for standing up on the outside, while some of us try to fix this mess from the inside. I ask people to remember the number 31.68. That’s the percentage of eligible US voters that voted for this idiot. The rest of us are doing our best to put out this dumpster fire. In the meantime, I’m eternally grateful for the good and right-minded people in Canada and Europe who are willing to face down fhe bully, and support nations like Ukraine who need and deserve it. Please keep it up. It’s going to be messy for a while, but the America we all know will be back.
Is there any similarity between what is in Hitler's "Mein Kampf" and Trump's "Project 2025". I know Trump says he knew nothing about Project 2025, but I do wonder if that's the truth. It would seem Trump is slowly shutting down the free press and without that it will be hard for any US citizen to have a voice in retaining democracy and their individual rights for freedom in their country.
Mark C. Liberal pm wannabe should not go to trump after stating trump has his respect !!!!! Mark just lost any credibility and the liberals will not get in!!! NDP? Charlie Angus…. You should get in there!!!
Sir, your voice of truth has meant so much to the people of Canada and the BLUE voters in the US! They have greatly appreciated your appearances on Meidas Touch as have I. Trump and his ilk have NO idea of the strength of the Canadian people. I have been so incredibly proud of the grass root movement across this nation to BUY CANADIAN. To stand strong, to be willing to "go over the boards" and to have our "elbows up". On other platforms, thousands of people from the US are expressing their horror with the current Regime in the US. The Regime simply can not be trusted to follow any agreement, contract, treaty, or alliance. Keep speaking out Sir! We need you, they need you.
Charlie, you are one of my rocks in this fight. I am stuck in the south US and somehow just figured out that no where at any time does this government in any official capacity HAVE to tell the truth and / or retract falsehoods spoken by any leader or official. Ever. I apparently should have not assumed and had no idea this was an issue i needed to research before uprooting my life to a foreign land. I honestly didn't know this and i think i speak for most Canadians and foreigners especially professionals - this is a deal breaker and MUST be disclosed to all who consider moving here. Like - we all know better than to go to or visit Russia. Well.... add the USA to these travel advisories. This should be fully disclosed by the US govt at every level that there is a chance that a Narciss tic delusional bully may get elected not once but twice (as if we hadn't had enough the first time) and that whatever he says will be repeated by all his Party and half the country and will put people such as myself and marginalized persons in grave danger and incite hate, fear ,and terror. No one at any time in the highest office has to tell any truth and may indeed endanger lives and countries with his bullshit. His slander has been life ending. No where can i find a law that mandates govt leaders tell truth or correct lies. anywhere. This is the only thing that makes the USA not a place to ever want to go in any capacity. I will be returning asap. Fleeing. I will bring as many docs and nurses from home and abroad as want to come along. This has shocked me to no end. I honestly would never have come here. He has lied and turned on his neighbor, and i am now a sitting duck who is apparently an abusive griftter leeching off the US. This is so many ways illegal and violates international law.
don't ever stop . , I cant stop, because everyone should be informed about this ...The CDN govt must put an urgent travel advisory on the site to replace that very false perception of security 'green' indicator. Red, it is. They've held Cdns and residents and US citizens in ICE custody for up to 6 weeks, solitary confinement, they can do ANYTHING and say ANYTHING they want. I cant not speak up . But all need to be aware of this....and our leaders in Canada and around the world need to inform their people formally....Everyone, especially nurses etc going to work in the US where jobs are hard to pass up .This needs to be plastered everywhere. Never take for granted going south means you're going to be in similar circumstances government wise and it should be safe. It is NOT. AT ALL.
..Hospitals need to disclose this to foreign recruits, lobbyists sadly may be the only ones who step in here, my guess is the auto makers will put a stop to it ... Think about that. Or the Oil Co, Baton Rouge here is sister town to mine Sarnia Ont. , a lot of folks go back and forth and come down to stay on contract, of course Albertas people and companies, Esso, get your lobbyists working for their $.. Ha, oil. or auto lobbies may have to stop this insanity.... Is that not sad? No one else seems to care , at all. you're my hero!

Charlie, thank you again for a well phrased thought-provoking article - WHY TRUMP REALLY HATES CANADA
I really think that those that value and love democracy in the world should be looking at some of the acronyms we are now seeing with more appropriate words attached to them.
The following are a few of my pet peeves and how I view what they really stand for:
MAGA – Marauding A-holes Gutting America
DOGE- Deranged Oligarchs Gutting Everything (saw something similar on the WEB)
Not the best probably and I am sure others have views that would be interesting. Keeping it clean was important as I didn’t want to sink into the same sewer system that those that created them have slinked into.
One last thing if you haven’t all gone to sleep on me. Charlie, your comment “The whole thing stinks of the scapegoating of racial enemies of Germany in the 1930s.” I sometimes wonder if Hitler managed to get himself reincarnated so he could appear for the unsuspecting US public.
Really urge anyone who has a little bit of time to take a look at Rick Steeves piece on Fascism in Europe – link below. Very scary and bears a lot of resemblance to what we see going on in America today.
Gtfoh, Camada is NOT a Nazi-infested basketcase of corruption like Ukraine. Ukraine isn't even a democracy.
maybe Americans will get tired of being run by a gangster themselves, a highly ineffective gangster that just knows how to smash and grab & whine petulantly. And shit the bed daily. Trump messes it up by instinct.
