PM Justin Trudeau is not exactly the brightest guy around.
“I suggest that not only does the Trump administration know how many critical minerals we have, but that may be even why they keep talking about absorbing us and making us the 51st state,” Trudeau said, according to The Daily Beast.
“They’re very aware of our resources, of what we have, and they very much want to be able to benefit from those. But Mr. Trump has it in mind that one of the easiest ways of doing that is absorbing our country. And it is a real thing,” he was caught saying.
“Yes, I can confirm that Trudeau said his assessment is that what Trump really wants is not action on fentanyl or immigration or even the trade deficit — what he really wants is to either dominate Canada or take it outright. Tariffs are a tactic towards that end,” McGowan said.
Where would Trudeau have gotten this idea? A Canadian miniseries that most Americans never heard of about an American conspiracy to take over Canada for its natural resources. Well, actually water..
In 2004, during the last US Presidential election, Canadian broadcaster CBC aired H2O, an edgy, well-written and compelling drama about the sale of water to an increasingly thirsty USA, which ended shockingly with the annexation of Canada by its neighbour.
The Country is in a spin when the prime minister drowns, Canada is thrown into a national crisis. His son, Tom McLaughlin takes over the realm promises to bring much needed leadership to the country. All the while lurking behind this chaos, a conspiracy of international proportions threatens the existence of Canada itself.
H2O is a gripping two-part political thriller that premiered on Sunday 31 Oct 2004 on CBC Television, and concluded the following night. This four-hour mini-series was a major event in CBC Television’s season, and was one of the most controversial dramas ever telecast to Canadian audiences.
Followed by…
H2O II: The Trojan Horse
Set in modern day North America, McLaughlin watches as a majority of Canadians vote to join the United States of America. The Canadian flag comes down and the country is redrawn into six states.
This parody nicely sums it up.
Could Justin Trudeau really be this stupid? Apparently yes.
