@MaleHumanPerso1 @PWestoff Great Britain was founded in 1707, not the United Kingdom - or to give it it's full title: The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland - which was founded in 1922 following the partition of Northern Ireland from the Irish Free State.

@JasminLaine_ When they say that only 1 % of the fentanyl is intercepted at the Canadian border, they're missing the point - it's the amount that's NOT intercepted that's the problem!! If anything, it could show how poor Canadian border security is!

@AlexiaNaidoo No, I mentioned his tenure at the BoE only because it was cited in the article you attached as a reason Canadians think he's the best man for the job. I'd add that there's a lot of open ground between disdain and admiration, and Trump's a fact of life for the next 4 years.

@AlexiaNaidoo I don't see the connection between being a central banker and navigating the perilous waters of negotiations with Trump - not least given their mutual disdain - but, as you say, we'll see.

@CTVNews Then he should have no hesitation in calling an actual election and getting a mandate from all Canadians.

@AlexiaNaidoo Yes, I've thought for some time that the old JP would look at the new celebrity JP with increasing concern. As to the substance of his monologue, I agree there's an opportunity for much good to come of the current difficulties if Canada can heal the rifts between east & west.
