Chris Nelson : Liberals didn't get it at first , they'd heard this 51st state silliness long before.

It was just Donald Trump being Donald Trump , the U.S. president enjoying nothing more than making others squirm in that endless game of one -upmanship he plays.

But then an odd thing happened, the angrier Canadians became, the better those previously pathetic Liberal polling numbers became.

Now, this upswing came too late for Trudeau , who bowed in his resignation early in the New Year .
