He ended off decent in the speech, but both leaders here keep talking about how we Canadians fought hand in hand in , took in Americans in 9/11 etc.
They don’t care. Trump and his minions don’t care. At this point, I feel it’s the U.S. vs the world and they’re willing to go it alone.
They seem to think they have the right to take over whatever nation they want, without recourse, and discuss the splitting up of a nation without the sovereign nation present at the table. Something similar happened in Europe in 1939. This is eerily reminiscent of that.
They do not control the world.
I agree they are all saying this, but I sense a difference in intent between Poilievre and the rest.
Maybe it's my bias, but I feel that Poilievre is saying these things with the intent to convince the Americans - i.e., it's for the American audience. By contrast, Carney and others are saying these things more for the Canadian audience - to explain why it's justified to be angry at the Americans and we need to grow up and kick them to the curb.
For Carney and others, it's a rallying cry; for Poilievre it's an attempt at appeasement.
