Canada joins new German-France 'alliance' that doesn't include U.S.
How intolerable for all of us.
I remember Chrystia Freeland as a very intelligent, personable woman/Canadian who appeared on cable news.

2. This is good. What matters is that the alliances hold
So that Russia and other rogue states are kept in bounds. We can re-join the world community when we have a housebroken President and Congress Is once again in the hands of patriots.
