Canada chose leadership over lunacy

Western Mail

May 01, 2025

DONALD TRUMP, the self-crowned king of chaos and bargain-basement bravado, just got publicly and politely obliterated by none other than Canada.

- CHRISTOPHER BUCKTIN US Editor

That's right. America’s calm, flannel-wearing northern neighbours have finally had enough of the orange-tinted hurricane across the border and served him a supersized serving of political humiliation, dripping in maple syrup.

With Mark Carney’s election as Prime Minister, Canadians didn’t just vote for leadership - they voted against Donald Trump's lunacy.

His victory wasn't about party loyalty or partisan enthusiasm; it was about sending an unmistakable message across the border. This was less a political campaign and more a national therapy session.

Canadians lined up at the ballot box like they were queuing for poutine after a blizzard, driven not by hope but by fury - fury over being dragged into a pointless trade war, slapped with tariffs on steel, aluminum and cheese, and insulted repeatedly by a US president who sees global diplomacy as a schoolyard brawl.
