It's a pity we have to rely on a foreign politician to speak plainly about what a lying, conniving menace Donald Trump is, as our own politicians and media apparently think it's a bit rude to be honest.
Trudeau: "He talked about banking again today in a tweet, which doesn't make any sense because 16 banks are currently active in Canada holding about $113b worth of assets in this country... what he wants is to see a total collapse of the Canadian economy, because that'll make it easier to annex us."
