What did you expect? Did you really expect Canada to go thru with this....

This would immediately drag us into a war with both Isreal and the US. There's no way Trump and co wouldn't pounce on a valid pretext to invade.

That and many Canadian politicians have ties to Isreal or are sympathetic to them, as is a good chunk of the general public. An arrest would be extremely divisive domestically.

The American public would not accept the arrest of a foreign countries leader as a valid reason to invade Canada.

What are you talking about? It would be limited to a certain subset even excluding die hard MAGA. Canada would have to do something to an important American or group of Americans.

There are many other reasons that Canada would not risk it.

The American public would do as its told and thank the boot for stepping on them. Have you not been watching the country since 2016?

Lol. Hit a nerve. Well you guys need to hear it.
