Canada should ‘move on’ from Trump’s 51st state remarks, says Pete Hoekstra

The fact that he’s bitching about it means it was effective.
Allow me.
Dear Mr. Ambassador, on behalf of all Canadian, please shut the fuck up.
The new U.S. ambassador to Canada says he knows the implication of King Charles III’s upcoming trip to Ottawa is to push back on U.S. President Donald Trump’s 51st state threats — and he says there are “easier ways to send messages” to the American government.
Perhaps, but bringing the king is preferable to the other tactics they’ve used in the past.

"In 1812 madison was mad,
He was the president you know.
Well he thought he’d tell the british where they ought to go.
He thought he’d invade canada,
He thought that he was tough.
Instead we went to washington,
And burned down all his stuff.
And the white house burned, burned, burned.
And we’re the ones that did it
It burned, burned, burned.
While the president ran and cried,
It burned, burned, burned.
And things were very historical,
And the Americans ran and cried like a bunch of little babies WaWaWa
In the war of 1812."
Canadians don’t take the easy way. They take the honest way.
We’ll stop sending messages when it’s clear that they’ve been received. That would require Trump to not only stop threatening our sovreignty, but officially apologize for it. This would not be difficult if Trump behaved like an adult, rather than a playground bully.
See, Pete, we think you’re all too fucking stupid to get subtle messages like “we aren’t going to be joining the US, fuckface” so we are going to resort to blunt instruments like how we’re a constitutional monarchy, and maybe flicking snot at your head during meetings.
