Charlie took the word right out of my mouth, instead of listening to Trump and his Reich members threaten to leave NATO. I would like the Canadian Government demand that the USA be suspended from NATO, G7 and the UN for the duration of the Trump presidency. Both Canada and Greenland are members of NATO and yet he has threatened to economically destroy and then invade these NATO members in order to rob them of their rare metals and other resources.

In its stead Ukraine should be invited to join. NATO was created to defend democracy. primarily from the threat caused by the USSR. Putin is attempting to recreate the USSR and Ukraine has been fighting Russian aggression for the last three years. They have significantly weakened Russia's ability to threaten Europe and therefore are exactly the type of country that NATO was formed to support.

Trump thinks it makes him look powerful when he threatens to withdraw from international agreements but if the international bodies evict the USA for the duration of Trump's presidency it will show him to be the loser he actually is. In addition, the rest of the civilized world will not have to endure fascist and ignorant Trump sycophants at international meetings.

I too have never been more proud to be Canadian. My Grandfather is buried in France along with so many of the allied forces in WWII.

Canada is standing up and reminding the world that there are values and principles worth defending. That bullying and intolerance can never prevail. I sincerely hope this begins a groundswell of support. I was heartened to hear Germany's Ambassador to Canada say in an interview yesterday that Europe has our back. We will prevail together.

Representing Canada, especially now, when information around the world is questioned and consumed half heartedly. Your voice to others is clearly, informing nations not yet aware of what is to come. You’ve sounded an alarm and maybe now, they’ve heard the warning. Thank you.

Charlie Angus, may the force be with you! You did a wonderful thing... and I agree wholeheartedly with Isabelle Emery (see below). Enough already. Let's make it crystal clear: we will not put up with this man's bullying. We might consider inviting like-minded US residents to join us. The few that I have been in correspondence with are deeply ashamed, terribly worried and very angry.
