So, let’s get this straight—Canada, one of America’s closest allies, is now supposed to seek protection from the United States by cozying up to Britain’s nuclear arsenal? Because Donald Trump might just waltz in and declare Canada the 51st state? This is the level of political discourse coming from Chrystia Freeland, who apparently sees no issue with floating Cold War-era paranoia to justify her party’s failing prospects. It’s almost impressive how far the Canadian Liberal Party is willing to stretch reality just to scare voters into supporting them.
Freeland, who spent years as Trudeau’s right-hand woman, now wants everyone to believe that Trump poses an existential threat to Canada. And her solution? Not strengthening ties with America, not working through diplomatic channels, but instead relying on Britain’s nuclear arsenal—which is partially dependent on U.S. technology, by the way. That’s like deciding to protect your house from your neighbor by giving a spare key to someone on the other side of the world. Smart.

But hey, let’s not ignore the real reason behind all this fearmongering. The Liberals are in trouble. Justin Trudeau’s approval ratings are scraping the bottom of the barrel, and Canadians are waking up to the fact that his leadership has been an economic disaster. Enter Freeland, who’s desperately trying to rebrand herself as a serious alternative while clinging to the same tired tactics: blame Trump, invoke nationalism, and pretend that the only way forward is through a more “progressive” alliance with Europe.
LOL – Chrystia Freeland: mad as a box of frogs.
She says Britain’s nukes could protect Canada from the US?
The UK doesn’t even own its nukes, we share them with the US, store them in Georgia, and while we have operational control, the US has a say in us using them.

Danielle Smith, Alberta’s conservative premier, hit the nail on the head when she called Freeland’s comments “insane.” Canada and the U.S. aren’t adversaries. They’re economic and military partners through NATO and NORAD, which, for the record, means Canada is already involved in North American defense strategy. The idea that America would suddenly turn hostile and require nuclear deterrence is laughable. Does Freeland genuinely believe that Trump, or any future U.S. president, is plotting a hostile takeover of Canada? Or is she just saying whatever it takes to keep voters distracted from Trudeau’s mess?
Meanwhile, the numbers tell the real story. Despite years of Trudeau’s virtue-signaling and reckless spending, the Conservative Party had been leading in the polls—until the Liberals managed to manufacture a “Trump threat” to rally their base. And sure enough, Freeland has surged in popularity, even though she’s still trailing Mark Carney, the former Bank of England governor and yet another globalist figurehead in the race. But let’s not be fooled by the short-term bump—Canadians are facing inflation, housing crises, and economic instability, and no amount of anti-Trump hysteria is going to make those problems disappear.
Of course, Trump isn’t one to let ridiculous accusations slide, and his response was exactly what you’d expect. He called Freeland a “whack,” which, considering her latest comments, seems pretty generous. And naturally, she wore it like a badge of honor, as if being called out by Trump somehow validates her entire campaign. “There’s a reason Trump and Putin don’t like me,” she boasted. Sure, Chrystia. That must be it. It has nothing to do with your disastrous economic policies, your failure to secure meaningful trade agreements, or your bizarre fixation on imaginary threats.
And just when you think this circus couldn’t get more absurd, Freeland suddenly decides she’s not that kind of Liberal. Now, she’s “an old-school Liberal” who’s all about “what people need in their lives.” Oh really? Where was this Freeland when Trudeau was busy crushing small businesses, pushing radical social policies, and running up record-breaking deficits? It’s convenient that she’s now trying to distance herself from the identity politics that have defined her party for the last decade. But voters aren’t stupid—they remember who stood by Trudeau through every scandal, every overreach, and every economic failure.
Canada doesn’t need to worry about Trump annexing the country. But if they keep electing Liberals like Freeland, they will have to worry about sinking deeper into economic turmoil, losing their sovereignty to globalist policies, and relying on ridiculous fantasies instead of real leadership.
