The USA versus Canada 5

It's time for more posts about the hottest topic in Canadian news right now. It seems that Canada got off lighter than many people expected in Trumps tariff announcement, but now he's taking on the whole world. What a fucking mess!

• Prominent Yale professors flee Trump’s America for new roles at University of Toronto (archive link). "Philosophy Prof. Jason Stanley will be transferring in a few months, joining Timothy Snyder and Marci Shore." As the article points out, there are others coming north, and there will be many more. 
• Is Canada Treating Trump’s Annexation Threat Seriously Enough? "We can’t cling to the belief things will return to normal." If he goes after Greenland, then we'll know he's serious about Greenland.
• Environmental comeback of Great Lakes at risk with Canada and U.S. in tariff turmoil (gift link). "But the Trump administration’s combative stand on binational relations – coupled with deep job cuts to U.S. civil servants dedicated to Great Lakes initiatives – have strained the partnership and put the region’s hard-won environmental progress at risk." For example, the idiots in DOGE have laid off people from the lamprey control initiative. This is nightmare fuel, especially if you've ever seen a lamprey.
• Worthwhile Canadian Observations. "About a “boring” country that definitely isn’t." Some things about Canada that Americans should learn. 
• Canada’s New US Travel Warning: Leave Your Phone, Grab a Burner, and Maybe Skip the U.S. Altogether. "Canada’s government just updated its travel advisory for the U.S., and it’s not your usual “pack a sweater” memo. Immigration lawyers are advising Canadians to leave our smartphones at home, pick up a burner phone, and seriously consider staying north of the border. Why? Things south of the 49th are getting messy, and Canadians—along with a few other countries—are taking notice." Yes we are. I just read that traffic across the international bridge in Sault Ste. Marie was down 30 percent in March.
• Trump’s Big "Fentanyl" Lie About Canada Just Got Exposed— US Senators Are Lining Up For Canada on Tariff Day And Trump Is Furious. "Some US Senators Are Fighting to Stop His Fentanyl Tariffs—Here’s Why."
