Those who followed the details of the U.S, Mexico and Canada trade agreement, can easily see how Chrystia Freeland was never going to be the right person for Canada to have as Finance Minister while they attempt to navigate President Trump’s economic policy again.
In fact, I would not be surprised if someone in Mar-a-Lago told Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau he needed to ice her out if Trudeau wanted to stand a chance of a relationship with Donald Trump. As many people noted during her gleeful confiscation of funds from the trucker protests, Deputy Prime Minister/Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland is a conniving, scheming, and all-around nasty piece of work.
In a posture akin to that sideways stare from Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction (“I’m not going to be ignored, Justin”) today turned some of that internal spite toward her boss, Justin Trudeau.
[Source]
As noted by the New York Times, “Ms. Freeland, who has helped steer the Trudeau government through many challenges, had been playing a prominent role in forming Canada’s response to the incoming Trump administration, leading a team of government officials preparing for the transition.” And then there’s the part of her letter which says, “on Friday you told me you no longer wanted me to serve as your finance minister.”
Yep, apparently the Canadian Trade Team walking toward Team America-First just wasn’t going to work again. Or, put more accurately, no one around Trump-47 has time for the childish nonsense that Freeland brings with her everywhere. lolol
Pictured Above: The Canadian Trade Delegation arriving for negotiations, circa 2017.
Good times…. Good times… Oh those USMCA memories.
I digress….
New York Times – […] In her letter of resignation, Ms. Freeland accused Mr. Trudeau, who is deeply unpopular at home, of engaging in “costly political gimmicks” instead of focusing on countering the grave threat of tariffs.
Canadians, she said, “know when we are working for them, and they equally know when we are focused on ourselves.”
She said the breakdown with Mr. Trudeau came over his push for measures, including a sales tax holiday and sending modest checks to taxpayers, that would add to the government’s deficit.
She said she believed this spending, aimed at currying support among voters, would undermine Canada’s finances and its ability to deal with Mr. Trump’s tariff threat.
Ms. Freeland, who had been the finance minister, was scheduled on Monday to outline the government’s commitments to improve border security with the United States as part of an interim budget known as the economic statement. (read more)
From France in the EU to Canada in North America, the professional leftist governments are collapsing at a rapid pace; perhaps even on Trumpian time, and we are here to savor every moment.
Our Canadian brothers and sisters may even greet us as liberators.
…And just wait until we see the news from Germany today.
It is quite possible that Freeland is merely repositioning herself to become the next liberal party leader and prime minister.
As FDR said, everything that happens in politics is planned.
The WEF NDP will likely continue to support WEF Justin.
<It is quite possible that Freeland is merely repositioning herself…>
It would be difficult to reposition without tearing that dress 🙂
I don’t know how she managed to position herself to get it on.
Similar to how ground meat positions itself to become sausage I guess.
Glad I wasn’t the only one here commenting on her dress. I knew it was rude of me but truth is truth.
Does that woman own a mirror? How unprofessional for a national leader to dress like that.
I suggest a longer dress in her future. Ankle length would be best.
Full body bee keeper burka would work.
… or one of Hillary’s “oven mitts.”
I expect she will secure a sinecure at Harvard or similar… the Jacinda Ardern career track.
She is a meth head.
Just watch the videos. She look’s and acts just like the meth baby’s I see around town. Jerky body and head movements. Cant control her facial muscles. Always acting and looking highly inappropriate.
She is a drug addict. No question.
She would get laughed out of the House if she tried to run for that position.
The Libtards are cooked. Its a country wide fact. There is no place for them at the table this next go around, and they know it.
Political Math.
Conservatives at 44%
Liberals at 21%
NDP at 21%
21% plus 21% is 33% in a shotgun marriage.
It appears that Purple Mc Yoga Pants is planning on a candidacy to replace Twinkle Sox.
God, what a den of vipers!
Even brackish water still seeks its own level.

Freeland has the agenda of Samantha Power and the evilness of Victoria Nuland!
Not really sure that’s a winning combination even for Canada?
It’s ironic that the person who shut down bank accounts of people who protested in Ottawa…
Is named Freeland 🙂
Yes, I’m still waiting for a refund from givesendgo for my support for the truckers. Creepy Chrystia was gleeful to announce the measures against supporters and the money has seemingly disappeared. She is definitely planning a run at Prime Minister.
…and the dwarfish stature of Loretta Lynch
WOW! There’s a name that’s been off the radar for a while. Good catch.
Yeah I’m tryna recall what she did. IRS?
Well, she works as a lobbyist now helping the CCP trying to get the drone company, DJI off the gub’mint black list.
AG
Even for Canada?
Listen my friend, we are not all stupid libtard bootlickers up here.
The majority hated this guy from day 1. He was supported by the Commie NDP to even get to the table. Those backstabbing Socialists propped him up.
I dont know a single person who voted for him, ever.
As far as most are concerned, our election was also stolen….
We have mostly patriotic citizens, who love our Country. That idiot is HATED. Always has been. We also love President Trump, and what he did for all of you, and will do again.
I like many, are tired of being booted around by words like yours, sorry. We are not a bunch of wussy’s either.
Our media, just like yours, was captured long ago by the exact same enemies.
Same with our education.
Same with our film industry.
Same with culture.
These rats all came, for us all.
We arent any different than you. Believe it.
Don’t take it as hostility, please. Many of us are wallowing in our own existential fear and dread.
Where I live, for example, has gone from American to majority non-American in about 25 years. A huge swath of them don’t even bother to learn English, because they don’t have to. They have their stores, their own partially parallel economic ecosystem, and are catered to in their language by all levels of government (at yet additional expense to Americans) and you better believe that they take advantage of every government program out there and there are many that Americans have no idea even exist because they are not advertised to us. We just pay for them.
We are the minority, and if they ever get as organized as we are, then the place is utterly finished as an element of American civilization. And the Republican Party, which is supposedly our last protector, is still a verminous nest of whores and traitors most of whom will gladly sell us all out to our destruction for a bag of newly printed fiat dollars and a pat on the head from the globalist monsters.
The good news is that there are still 200 million of us on this continent, including Canadians and not including degenerate evil white leftists. If the worst comes to pass, polities and their borders will change, and the likeminded who want to maintain standards (and the civilization that goes along with having standards) must all stick together. I pray not just for America, but for Canada and all the other European countries who are under attack by globalist evil, which alas is all of us.
Here here!!
Same issue in Canada. No longer a “Canadian Identity”. Just islands of “Diversity”. Ghettos of other cultures where Canada is the passport of convenience.
WEFland. Feudalism/Upper Crusties/Serfs.
So who do you have waiting in the wings who could be Canada’s Trump? MCGA!
Pierre Pollievre.
He talks a good game. We shall see……
The PC’s are going to easily win when this clown steps out.
Its not even close.
That being said, as Ive already stated, I dont trust PP either. He loves him the rainbow people and vaxxes….but perhaps that was just him trying to win over the fence sitter’s.
The proof will be in the pudding, because he will win the election. Without any real challenge.
I dunno…is Red Green available? Nothing wrong with Canada that a little duct tape wouldn’t fix!
PP did not support the covid vaccine mandate. He openly supported the truckers protest against the mandate well before they even drove in to Ottawa.
“loving the rainbow people?” Not sure where you got that notion.
Because I watched him talking about it a few years back in a street interview about that school in Ottawa that was pushing the trans propaganda…..since then, he may have changed his views.
He was for the vaxx, but not the forced mandate. I should have been more specific.
I dont follow the clowns in Ottawa much since the lockdowns.
Hope that clears it up.
I was asked if I was going to continue to help finance Pierre. I told his bagman that if he restored Canadian Diplomacy and dropped the “My Israel, right or wrong” public face, I would be glad to continue.
Canada needs to dig up Lester Pearson.
His apple crunching interview beat down of that lefty reporter was the greatest ever.
“We arent any different than you. Believe it.”
Yeah, but we have REAL bacon.
Good to see things are looking up for our friends up north though.
LOL!
Yeah, I suppose I have to have a bit of a sense of haha here. Its hard when times are so stressful. That is a fact.
Its been a seriously tough ride with that moron in charge. Just like you all down there, for the last 4 years. Patience with our Government is long gone. That Commie is truly despised by the clear majority, for quite a few years now.
After our last 4 years, believe me, we know exactly what you are going through.
Chin up. I hope you are right about Pierre.
We are just waking up here, and probably 4-8 yrs behind you in the big push back to take back Canada. We’ve ignored the post of Pietism to allow the Communist takeover and are now just beginning to get involved with the levers of power. With Trumps help, we could accelerate. Yet at some point we need strong leaders to step up & overhaul this Country for peace and prosperity. PP shows some signs, but he’s probably a 2-3 out of Trumps 10. If he takes over and surrounds himself with strong experienced Patriotic businessmen who will step up to force change, I’ll increase his rating. I have my doubts.
It sounds like your elections are operated the same as the corrupt ones here in California. You know, Trudeau and our governor Newsom are both graduates of the world economic forum program.
Yes they are.
We know that all too well up here.
WEF. Birthed from the Hitler Youth.
“Frida” Her financial and military support to Ukraine wasn’t going to mesh with Trump’s exit plan.
I don’t know which is more off-putting in that photo…Freeland, or the 3 soy boys surrounding her.
She will be back, but for now it is fun to see her gone.
Truly one of the most wretched individuals in Western government, which is saying a lot these days, and whom I suspect was the actual person running the Canadian one.
At least she has her membership on Waffen S-S- Memorial Association Board of Directors to fall back on.
Little Castro needs to resign. I’m surprised the Canadian people have put up with this soy boy for so long!
We dont have the remedy’s you do, to get rid of tyrants.
He was propped up by the Commie NDP party, just to keep his job.
Without them having a no confidence vote, we were stuck with this POS the whole time.
Singh is the leader of the NDP, and being a Commie he has never stuck up for us, at all. He is an gimmegrant, from East India. The same rules do not apply in Canada. People with no roots here can run for PM.
The NDP has shafted us with that traitor, Castro Jr, the entire time.
It is angering….believe me. The people here, have had enough though,. There is no lie in these words.
Prayers for our Canadian friends! 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 🇨🇦
Singh will be eligible for his pension some time in February I believe so perhaps he will support a non-confidence vote after that, because I don’t think Trudeau is resigning so fast.
He would rather delay the inevitable election and frame it such that he will be running against Trump, not Poilievre, who he will characterize as the Canadian Trump.
TDS is so deeply engrained in Canada, the stupidest of all countries, that it just might work.
Nothing is “engrained” in Canada. Canadian Media and Information is even more controlled than the U.S.
Most people don’t want to rock the boat and get swamped by Thugs. Canadian or American.
“We don’t have the remedy’s you do, to get rid of tyrants.”
What !!!!!!!!!
An illegally installed President, controlled by dirty hands in the background, without the consent of the majority of “actual votes/voters”. remains in Power for 4 years.
Those very same dirty hands charge Trump, with the entire weight of the U.S. government, harass him for 4 years, and the only fulcrum point upon which the American Democracy/Nation stands is the innate, incomprehensible courage of ONE MAN, Trump.
Of which remedies do you speak?
Well, the 2nd amendment for starters.
I get what you are saying though.
No one impeached Xiden. The people didnt rise up. But, they could have. Legally, if the will was there. I can understand the American people didnt want to be J-6’ed, or canceled. Lose their jobs and the other myriad of tyrannical actions that would have came with rising up. No one wanted to go first. No real resistance leader to organize something like that.
All I was suggesting was that we dont have those options.
We are all under the thumb of the globalists, one way or the other.
There is definitely an argument to be made that women don’t belong in politics…
I’ll let you make it while I keep my neck attached.
Leftist lunatic women don’t belong in politics but MAGA women like Kari Lake most certainly do belong in politics!
Personally, giving Kari Lake such a lame position, looks like such a slap upside the head.
What gives?
Catherine the Great, both Queen Elizabeths, your mother, etc. don’t agree with you.
Women, like men, are not solely homogenous, limited only by their genes.
That signature of hers is telling….a swirl here and a horizontal line there and she’d have a truly fitting signature.
From what I’ve heard, they were supposed to reveal either the expenditures or budget in a couple of days, and they just resigned. I presume that they are trying to hide the amount of money they’ve sent to Ukraine from the Canadian people.
True-Dope declared “Budgets balance themselves.”
So, following the footsteps of our Southern Neighbors, a C$40 Billion budgeted deficit, is actually C$62 Billion.
Is that a problem?
Anyone with that kind of a body does not need to be seen in public wearing a size 2 toddler dress…
Ouch 😂
mutton dressed as lamb
A thrashed about and unmade, purple waterbed.
It’s too short, too tight, and too purple. Very unprofessional.
Bye Chrystia, it’s been great not knowing you.
Freeland’s announcement is two in one: she’s resigning and she’s campaigning.
@thevivafrei
LIt’s actually insane… Freeland resigns two hours before the full budget was to be presented. Then the replacement resigns/refuses to take the helm. The Trudeau regime is going down, and it looks like it might be going down today.

Canadian Trade Delegation pic could have been taken from a scene from Veep.

“Our country today faces a grave challenge. The incoming adminitration in the United States is pursuing a policy of aggressive economic nationalism…”
Of course we are! We aren’t Canadians, Europeans, Africans, South Americans or the people of any other country, continent, region or island — Our country is America 1st!
“…Canadians doubt that we recognize the gravity of the moment.”
Oh Canadians recognize the gravity of the moment, babe. They can see you are afraid that you will be exposed for what you have done to them.
“That means pushing back against ‘America First’…”
Go ahead, you’ve got a bit of heft to you, see how that works. Just remember, there are more of us ‘America First’ people than even the deep state wanted to let on.
“[Canadians] know when we are working for them, and they equally know when we are focused on ourselves.”
You’ve shown your countrymen, and the world, that you’ve been totally focused on yourself for a long time.
“But how we deal with the threat our country currently faces will define us…”
No, how the people deal with the real threat, which is you and the faux leaders of Canada, is what will define Canadians for years to come. And if the Canadian trucker’s strike was any indication, my heart is doing a happy dance right now.
The Canadian Truckers represented a far larger group. The Heavy Trucks were a very visible, hard to ignore Convoy. And as you might know, the Canadian Convoy, unlike the U.S. attempt, actually got to the Capital.
AND all the Canadian WEF “elites” gussied up in “Democratic Socialism” revealed, for all to see, that inside every Socialist is a Dictator. Do what I say or I will hurt you, fire you, shun you, call you names, enlist my thugs against you.
Yessiree, Canada’s Socialist are bleeding out from their self-inflicted impulses.
She’s quite the fire-plug….
Canadian patriots have a bigger Uniparty problem than we have. IMO their Uniparty consists of at least four and possibly five parties. The closest to a MAGA party is the Peoples Party of Canada (PPC), created from a Bernier-led hostile split from the Conservatives. PPC has no seats in the House, but receives many votes throughout Canada in national elections.
Point is…our MAGA friends True North are having to settle with the squishy Conservative Party, just like many of us settled for the Republican establishment here for so many years.
Exactly.
PP talks big. He blusters a lot, tries to emulate PDJT on some issues. But they are indeed, very squishy….
We shall see when the rubber meets to road.
Good riddance. I was in Calgary last month and caught a news segment indicating that Trudeau has roughly a 12% approval rating.
The best thing about her letter is the lie it contains. The tariffs are specific to illegal immigration and fentanyl. She uses the terms jobs, investments, and capital as stand ins.
Hint: she doesn’t mean “for Canadians”.
I hope those kids walking with her in that 2017 photo have finally graduated from college.
Looks more like Hogwarts than college.
Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes!
Pass those Winnamins!!
But, but, but what am I’m going to do now without my Purple Barney support animal?/sarc.
I got a support animal for ya, ye ole pompous beech.
I gotta thank God for working overtime on this one….He sure knows when to put some oof in the MAGA movement.
I’m almost over my intense bout of nausea after viewing that appalling photo.
But the stomach’s gonna be touch-and-go for the rest of the evening.
*squeezes soothing drops into injured eyes*
🤣😂🤣
I’m sure she’ll do fine! With knees like that she can become a runway super model. In Samoa.
Chrystia of the “confident stride”?
Chrystia of the “powerful, independent, woman”?
In her defense she is hamstrung by policy, tradition, and Canadian emptiness (orphan syndrome).
That ridiculous picture of her strutting with her beta male minions like they were in some kind of super hero movie has never ceased to amuse me.
I can’t say I’ve never made a fashion faux pas, but I don’t know what possessed her to wear that dress. As a woman, I want to take her aside and say, ‘Oh, no, honey, uh uh.’
Looks like all Canada and Trudeau is down and out possibly in next few days. Germany, France, England USA.. all massive turnovers. All massive intended and allowed republic limiting/ending problems with budgets, green new deal and DEI and illegals. Massive. Recoverable by good people? Like an aircraft in a nose dive and gaining speed 10k feet AGL here you go you got it.
When did Americans, Canadians, Brits, Germans, the French get to vote for World War III ?
I vote for kicking them all out.
Thank you Donald Trump for standing up to the Dark Forces.
Now, America, get those old, corrupt Senators to vote in Trump’s Team.
Make the lives of those Old Goats MISERABLE if they don’t get onside.
It’s a shame, I love that shade of purple. Or did.
Where’s Dekester and the MCGA (Make Canada Good Again) folks?
There’s an opening in your government that needs filling.
Please vote in a Freedom Trucker to right this ship…and REFUND all the money that Freeland the thief stole from them and all the folks that supported the best North American protest ever held.
MCAS.
Make Canada A State.
Hell No !!!
What was done under the “Color of Law” against Trump for the past 8 years is no better, if not worse than the crap Trudeau and ilk did in Canada.
Canada needs a good house cleaning, but Canadians (and I am not talking about Canadians whose sole identity is being anti-American) are not Americans, although very similar.
Honest, Decency, Diplomacy. That is the core of Canada, not all this Woke, WEF, “we’re all gonna die, Globalism.”
We are right here my friend.
Dekester, and Dan Dale, and several others, have been quiet lately.
Me, not so much. 😉
Not that quiet…as one who participated in the Truckers Rally’s and was threatened with arrest at Truck crossing in South Surrey.
I can say that millions of Canadians have had enough, more than enough.
However our system is corrupt to the core, and a quick fix will be unlikely.
That said this is all in Gods hands…we still have it pretty good, better than most parts of the world.
We are wide awake now to the MSM and their lies.
Earlier today two trucks were proudly displaying F**k Trudeau bumper stickers.
Cheers to all..
A lot of us here and around the world are praying for your country, Dekester.
It may be thrilling to think of a new and more just Canadian government, but as it still is in the U.S., the period between seeing your country “fall” to seeing it shine brightly is a time only God can carry us through.
💪👍
Seen a few coming through town today with those bumper stickers too. On the doors, and the back of the trucks.
Those truckers are still mighty angry for all that BS.
Oh yes!
Even down here in “ lotus land” Greater Vancouver the “ sheep” are getting nervous.
IMO the are acting like “ sheep” as they run/drive around anxiously.
We here thanks to Sundance, his crew and the intelligent CTH posters are “ switched on “ and prepped.
Cheers!
And to show that Canadians have a sense of Humor, Christy Clark has rushed to Ottawa to grasp the crown from True-Dope.
The Truck Fudeau sign has been around for a few years.
Canada has too many Government Employees getting paid to do nothing, or when they are doing something they are delaying the economy.
Government is the disease that has nearly killed Canada.
Totally true.
Im old enough to remember that there were the days, where no matter what was going on in Government, they had 0 to do with our daily lives. Their policy’s or words didnt affect us, at all.
Life was affordable, you could speak your mind, no matter what went on.
Those days have been gone since that Commie took over.
I had her in a class with Nuland, Powers, Whitmer, Ardern etc etc….role models for vindictive feminists….
“In fact, I would not be surprised if someone in Mar-a-Lago told Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau he needed to ice her out if Trudeau wanted to stand a chance of a relationship with Donald Trump.”
After reading her letter, methinks TurDOH! did give her the boot, wearing the Donald’s boot.
And the evil wench saw the boot.
Bye Felicia.
Justine sits like he is wearing that dress.
Maybe he gets wear it on weekends.
An interesting interpretation but I’m not sure that you’re reading this right, Sundance…
Our take here in Canada among conservatives is that it’s Trudeau who was stubbornly insisting
on being a jackass in his comments about Trump post-MaraLago and his refusal to see the writing on the wall
—and that twitchy Christia (she’s thought to be on cocaine or speed) wasn’t willing to go down with the sinking ship.
She’s crazy but not as crazy as her boss.
Please keep us informed as the situation progresses.
Since Trudeau is leaving, this is just preplanned liberal party theatre to reposition Freeland to be the next liberal party leader and prime minister ahead of fall 25 election.
Notice all of Canada’s msm are supporting the government and pretending nothing much happened today.
sounds like you’re writing from Canada too… but I can’t agree with your assessment…the MSM knows that it’s all over it’s just a matter of when…
Evan Solomon…who is “establishment” press here…seemed genuinely stunned by this turn of events and everyone agrees that Trudeau is going down….I do agree that Christie is likely angling for PM/leadership
Yes, it is over for Justin but the liberal government and msm don’t believe it is over for them yet especially if they can get Canadians to focus on a new leader (and forget about Justin).
So you haven’t noticed Saviour Mark Carney of Bank of England, City of London employee, been parachuted in?
Coke in the White House, Meth in Parliament. So glad we have sober, thoughtfull people in charge of the levers of power.
BTW, do their Dealers control their Drug Policy?
Au revoir to the Canadian demi-tyrant!
OMG, Look at what Justine sent to face the Wolverines!
Canada sent down 3 Soy Boys and 2 BULL DYKES in 2017 to negotiate with PDJT. Trump must have been laughing his ass off.
She should not be wearing that short of a dress.
The fundamental issue remains: “Make [My_Country] Great Again.”
Okay: so what does “Great” actually mean to you? Does it mean: “acting as an independently industrially-secure nation?” Capable of, even “in times of war,” producing(!) what “actual war” requires?
“Ike” Was Right! As a “Supreme Commander,” he fully understood what he was saying. And, as it turned out, absolutely no one cared to do the same.
As a woman of “smaller stature” (okay, yep, I’m short – LOL) there are ways to look professional, and still attractive, whilst admitting that some styles simply do NOT lend themselves to women who who do not have “the leg” to pull them off! Like it or not, it is what it is…but evidently Chrystia never got the memo and kept trying to force her 5′ 2″ body into styles that only someone at least six inches taller (and probably 30 pounds lighter) could carry off with aplomb!
Clearly, this is a woman who cannot read the room, or the mirror, and as such, it is well past time for her to disappear from the public stage. She has done nothing that has benefitted ANY ordinary Canadians, but has instead caused immeasurable harm for hard working, law abiding people who expected at least a modicum of competence (and maybe just a smidge of self awareness) from their elected leaders!
I don’t see the problem. Is Canada not able to simply print more money, like the US does? /s
