“Understand what almost happened Friday night.
A foreign government attempted to acquire, by contract, control over #Canada’s trade relationships, cultural protections, official languages policy, auto industry, and provincial procurement, with a unilateral-enforcement whip attached, and they tried to do it in the dark, at midnight, on a deadline they manufactured.
The 51st state thing was never a joke. It was a mission statement.
Friday was the paperwork.”
