If they behave translates to ‘if they bend over for Trump.’

The UK also runs a deficit with the US, they buy way more than they sell, (the UK runs a deficit with everywhere due to the countries inherent incompetence) but on a basic level they are already complying with Trumps demand and have been sine the 1950's

We are also the world's third largest creator of desperate self-congratulatory bull####, behind only Russia and the US.
Incidentally Guiness is from Dublin so we can't even claim that

You know you got nothing when all you can do is make stuff about people supporting a 'pro Trump' party.

I guess after 9 years of Liberal rule, Liberal supporters are used to their party not actually doing anything.
I guess tomorrow we'll get some policy proposals.

Appeals to a large section of Americans as well. An American King? Prince Barron? All appointed by god? That's something Christian Fascists couldn't even dream of before.

Worth noting that under the terms of a treaty from 1907, Britain has effectively “first dibs” on Greenland should Denmark ever decide to sell it. I’m sure that’s just a coincidence.

Time to completely sever that ceremonial tie.
Power in Canada is derived from the people who vote in elections. Not symbolically from God to the monarch who bestows a governor general on us.
The United States has threatened Canada's sovereignty, and mocked the legitmacy of our leader. Our 'ceremonial' head of state could have at least said 'hey, knock it off United States'. But nothing but deafening silence.
Time for the final nail in that monarchy coffin. Canada republic now.

Agreed we should severed all of those ties long time ago. National day of mourning when Elizabeth died. She has nothing to do with us.
