Vladimir Putin’s Russia did not suddenly show itself to be the enemy of Ukraine on Feb. 24, 2022 .

Vladimir Putin had been amassing troops on its border with Ukraine since 2021 .

So, too, Donald Trump has transformed himself into Canada 's enemy, and the word is not overstatement.

Trump has said he wants to take over Canada , and make us the “the 51st state;” Trump has mocked our duly elected leaders, from Justin Trudeau to Pierre Poilievre .

Jean Chretien wrote a wildly-popular newspaper column that declared Canadians will never give up the best country in the world to join the U.S. That is why, in the same week , Stephen Harper said he has “a real problem” with Trump ’s attacks on Canada .

What is the best way to regard Trump , now, because he clearly is not our friend?.
