VIDEO: โTrump‘s Ambassador to Canada Deflectsโ Question on Potential U.S. โคannexation โof Canadian territories
The U.S. โAmbassador to Canada, David Cohen, declined to directly address a question regarding the possibility of the United States annexing parts โof Canada, suggestingโ the discussionโฃ could be revisited at a laterโข date. During an appearance on theโค Closer Look podcast, hosted by Michael Friscolanti and Scott Sexsmith of Village Media, Cohen responded to a โขquestion about comments made by former President Donald Trump suggesting the U.S. mightโค acquire โขCanadian โฃland with, “Boy, that American ambassadorโ was really evasive โon that issue,” he โcontinued. “You can have thatโ discussion tomorrow.I’m not โfocusedโ on it.”
Theโฃ exchange highlights ongoing tensions stemming from Trump’s past rhetoric about Canada and raises questions about the current management’s stance on โcross-border issues. While Cohenโค dismissed the immediate discussion, โขthe topic resurfaces amid broader concerns about U.S.-Canada โฃrelations and the potential for future political shifts.
