00:00:00.000 President Trump put out a post on social media last week after their call where he was quite
00:00:04.260 respectful. You know, he didn't do the whole Governor Carney thing. He called him prime
00:00:08.200 minister. And he said that they were probably going to have a great relationship. Do you think
00:00:12.660 that that in some ways actually hurts Carney and that kind of mitigates the issue? Or do you think
00:00:16.540 that that provides assurances for those voters to say, OK, Carney is the guy that can deal with
00:00:22.020 Trump? I think time will tell. I think that what this actually points to more than anything is the
00:00:26.440 fact of the personal uh personal conflict that mr trump had with uh former prime minister justin
00:00:34.380 trudeau uh i think that specifically on the governor stuff i thought that was like very
00:00:39.840 telling uh when he said that on friday like referring to him by his proper title as prime
00:00:44.260 minister of canada i i think that it much more speaks to like the fact that trudeau every single
00:00:50.620 opportunity he got would drag president trump's name through the mud would call like in freeland
00:00:56.580 would call uh as a slur the conservatives the maple syrup maga conservatives and stuff like
00:01:02.640 that like this is just meant to be there was all meant to be effectively personal attacks on mr
00:01:08.020 trump just the second he left office they had no idea that he was going to come back right so like
00:01:13.080 i i well i think time will tell as to exactly what the implications of this are i think that if
00:01:18.600 If it's understood that the relationship, and we're going to see this on April 2nd, that's going to be very interesting to see if this actually continues in terms of the level of debate and the level of quorum that's enjoyed between the United States and Canada.
00:01:38.240 I think that's going to be actually very indicative of the future impact that this issue will have on the Canadian electorate.
00:01:44.640 If it's something that Canadians feel like there's progress that can be made, that it's not simply just petty, just like name calling like Governor Trudeau and 51st State, because it's a very emotional issue.
00:01:58.140 You're talking about something that you can't really counter with facts.
00:02:01.920 This is about Canadian identity, Canadian culture, Canadian sovereignty at the end of the day.
