He thinks Canada is 1930s Austria. That people are just waiting for him to come save them.
2013 Ukraine might be closer to his thinking. Trump learns from his mentor. And just as in Ukraine, there will be traitors in Canada who help the invader (looking at you, Danielle Smith, and I don't trust Poilievre for a minute).
Speaking of traitors, imagine how confusing it must be to still be a Convite. I'm assuming they've trained themselves to think watching the CBC is treason, but I have hope a wee clip might pop someone's culty filter bubble this week.
- link to 2023 pressprogress article for anyone not from Canada scrolling like, wtf is a Convite? tl;dr: timbit taliban
Right on that there's absolutely no reason to trust Skippy. He's the face of pay-to-play politics up here just like Trump is down south, and he'll do as he's told.
As for Ford's sudden Captain Canada act, the phrase "as far as you can throw him" comes to mind.
I LOVE the sentiment currently coming out of his usually filthy gob as much as the next person, and I'm not about to interrupt him, but his patriotism isn't something anyone should rely on long term. He wants American-style "healthcare" here as much as Trump's people do, he'd happily sell any one of us for a toonie, and he's CAMPAIGNING in a snap election he called to get a Stronger Mandate (his words).
(btw - I'm wearing that tacky Canada Is Not For Sale hat, and it does not imply support for any political party, no matter what Murdoch media pushes on us. It's showing support for our country.)
