    Mfer has united Canada unlike anything in living memory, besides WWII I suppose. Where, by the way, we declared war on Japan immediately after Pearl Harbour, before even the USA did.

    Trump, being the failed businessman that he is, works under the delusion that you can treat a country as if it was a company. Just like he tries to make short term gains by randomly firing employees running his government or that he can “fire” people from an ethnicity that he doesn’t like by deporting them, he thinks that if he puts a country in a position of financial struggle he can just purchase it for cheap.

    He doesn’t want to “break” Canadians to destroy our unity. It is far simpler and dumber than that. His “genius” plan is to make a hostile purchase offer.

      This assumes he wants the business to succeed, rather than tearing apart its long term international business relationships so that its competitors can dominate the market. Consider that he may have been made the CEO by a hostile company.
