Not sure what base you mention but, yes, the Chinese will be more than happy to take over as world leader as we retreat. As Americans and residents of this world, I do not think we should be celebrating.

So what? I have no problem with that. The US needs to put the US first, and fix its own domestic mess.

Remember, that Trump shouted "America first! and America only!" at a campaign rally. America can't face-down the rest of the world alone. The message he sent about having no care about the other nations, was received by them, loud and clear. The big question is, will the world ever forgive us for allowing this imposter to hijack our government?

What an amazing and strong self proclaimed "male feminist" leader. The liberal party in canada wont last long if something like this ever happened, this isnt kathy griffin. This was years back but Canada is not immune to the problems of multiculturalism and mass immigration and terrorism any means.

"Police charged 12 men and five youths with planning a wave of attacks, ranging from blowing up the Toronto Stock Exchange to storming the national public broadcaster and the Parliament buildings in Ottawa—and beheading the candian prime minister."






"Following the Boston marathon bombing in April 2013, Trudeau was chided by then Prime Minister Stephen Harper for suggesting that “root causes” needed to be examined to better understand why terrorists kill innocent civilians indiscriminately. Harper went on to accuse the young opposition leader of “committing sociology” in the face of terror when a homegrown plot to target VIA Rail was foiled a few weeks later."

I believe Trump said something like that first one.

God, I hope Trudeau takes the Boston bombers's family into Canada. For that matter he can take Bieber back, and Cher as part of the deal

It's the "Liberal Party of Canada." Capital "L," capital "P." It doesn't necessarily translate to the party position, but it is a proper noun, and deserves a capital letter on its name. Similarly, the Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) deserves capitals as well. We're not very original with the names of our political parties in Canada, but we do like to differentiate between a liberal stance on an issue, and the stance that the Liberal Party takes on the same issue. Same for Conservatives and conservatives.

Regarding your post, no terrorism was ultimately committed. Why? Because Canada's moderate Muslim community felt that they were welcome enough in Canada to rat out their own Muslim radicals and terrorists.

How does one "commit sociology"? Last I heard, sociology was a college course, and not something one could commit, like a crime.

Again, the VIA Rail plot was foiled by--you guessed it--moderate Muslims reporting to local police.

And seriously, Sun News as a source? Canadians know that Sun News carries as much weight as the Weekly World News (BatBoy!) and the National Enquirer ("Tom Cruise Reveals Gay Tryst With Arnold Schwartzeneggar!"). In other words, Sun News, while entertaining, carries no weight at all as a legitimate news source.

The Sun might be a rag but Trudeau did say exactly what the Sun said.
