NOooooooooooooo! Just heard on local Ottawa news

[applegrove]

that Trump could appoint Sarah Palin to Ottawa as US embassdor to Canada. I had thought we were safe. Or Gugliani. Or Chris Christie. Please let it not be Palin.

1. you just named the three stooges

[Cracklin Charlie]

2. Sorry, Canada.

That really sucks.

[Blue_Roses]

3. Do you live in Canada?

I've wondered what they must think of this lunacy. It's embarrassing.

[applegrove]

8. Oh we are very sad for you. It is not funny for anyone.

[chillfactor]

4. could Canada refuse to accept her? n/t

[angstlessk]

12. Mahaps you could build a wall and make America pay for it after the taxpayers

fronted the expense...ya think?

[jmowreader]

24. Yes, of course they could

A diplomat is received by the country he or she has been posted to in a ceremony. The ambassador meets the head of state of that nation and presents his or her Letter of Credence. The head of state can accept or reject the letter. Problem is, you need a pretty damn good reason for rejecting one because it's basically an act of war to do so. "She's dumber than a damn rock and will probably eat all the moose in Canada and start a fight club in the basement of the embassy" is not good enough, although she'd do it.

5. I doubt it.

Palin wrote a blog that insulted Trump. There is no way that Trump will nomimate her after that.

6. You didn't think we were going to just let you get away with Bieber, did you?

[Kilgore]

19. Bravo!!

[KamaAina]

23. They could always send him to DC in retaliation.

[underpants]

7. Google's got nothing on this

[applegrove]

10. The local cbc news said it was rumoured or something to that

effect. It could just be local Ottawa gossip based on nothing.

13. On reddit 3 days ago...

Chris Christie, Rudy Giuliani and Sarah Palin are likely on shortlist for next US ambassador to Canada.
https://www.reddit.com/r/canada/comments/5mgs3y/chris_christie_rudy_giuliani_and_sarah_palin_are/

Then there was this news item an a satire site in 2013...

Obama Appoints Sarah Palin Ambassador to Canada

'Keep Your Friends Close and Your Enemies Refrigerated'

...

“This will be a new era in relations with Canada, thanks to the appointment of Ms. Palin,” Carney asserted. “They may end up hating us for the choice but at least it gets her out of our country. The best thing is, when is the last time the international press reported anything the U.S. Ambassador to Canada ever said? This will shut her up for a good four years, if she stays with it that long, of course, considering her previous track record. Besides, if she sticks to Alberta, the Canadian people probably won’t even notice her as she would blend right in.”

9. Don't worry. If it really happens, she'll quit after a couple months.

[Ccarmona]

11. Build a Wall

And have Trump pay for it.

[TreasonousBastard]

14. Now hold on-- this may not be so bad...

Canada is one of our best friends and and there isn't much anyone can do to screw it up. So, give Palin this safe job and watch while she manages to humiliate herself and her boss.

Beats giving her something like Japan.

[Old Vet]

15. Good Grief, You just cant make this shit up...........

[marylandblue]

16. Hey, at least you really can see Canada from Alaska nt

[HassleCat]

17. When she moves to Ottawa

She'll be able to see Canada from her back porch. Assuming she bothers to notice.

[mercuryblues]

18. I know for sure

it won't be Palin. She has to stay in Alaska in case Putin rears his ugly head. Ooops my bad. It will definitely be Palin, trump wants her out of the way when Putin does rear his ugly head.

She won't be able to take her Midnight Ride to warn the Russians the Americans are there, willing to fight.

[UTUSN]

20. Bwa-ha - uh-oh/sorry.

[maxrandb]

21. That should go well n/t

[Different Drummer]

22. I would have thought it would have been Russia since...

she can see it from her house.
