I think it's great that people who believed we are a racist country and post national state (lefties) are suddenly passionate Canadians.

100% you don’t threaten to annex your allies. It should be met with near universal condemnation by all of Nato and the West. That is tinpot dictator talk, not the talk of a man who is supposed to be the leader of the free world.
