Asked about tariffs first, annexation second during today’s White House briefing. No updated guidance on possible help for the auto sector, and the US President’s position on Canada as the 51st state has not changed.

How much did Carney pay you to stir the hornets nest back up?

Here’s what could get more expensive with Trump’s new tariffs.

Why Katie? Why would you poke the bear especially when we are in an election period? You're smarter than this so was this deliberate to keep the narrative going? SMH

Down there stirring up 💩just to scare some more votes. Disgusting Liberals!

Oh, give it up. Such an irrelevant question. You're not stupid, though. You know Carney won't have a fucking chance if Trump doesn't stay in the media.

So Canadians used tax dollars for CBC to go to the WH to help Carneys campaign with Trump fear mongering….. So corrupt.

Did Carney send you down there to poke the bear to get all the TDS libtards riled up? Defund the CBC.

Seriously, you asked about the 51st state? Let me paraphrase ... "ya know ya said you were gonna F us over real goooood ... but, disappointingly, you're no longer talkin'bout F'ing us over real gooood. Can ya just assure us that it's still yer plan to, you know, F us over real gooood?"

Thank goodness you turned his attention back on us though...that question could very well cost some hard working Canadians their jobs. Hope you feel fantastic about that.

Trump has never suggested “annexation”in the way you malevolently use the term . He has suggested that Canadians might benefit from Canada integrating with the United States and that many Canadians also feel that way. Regardless of what you or I may think about those assertions then he is arguably correct on both points . 🤷‍♂️

Oh Katie….how far you’ve fallen. You had a chance to be a real journalist for once and blew it with this gotcha 💩.

Did you purposely ask about the 51st state stuff in order to make it an election issue again??

Your overlords have to rely on the Trump card because that’s the entirety of the Liberal’s platform. Everything else is directly plagiarized from the Conservatives. Well, guess you can keep your cushy job at the expense of thousands of blue collar workers. I hope you feel great on that.

"Right -- he’s always said that Canadians would benefit from being the 51st State and we’ve always said fuggedahboutit. But can you provide one example in which Trump *threatened* to *annex* Canada?" @nspector4

How in the dog whistle do you get from "he believes Canadians would benefit greatly from becoming the 51st state" to "annexation" exactly? Like, is this some secret sub language of English the rest of us aren't aware of, ooooooore...?

Gotta earn that new $176 million in funding for our state sponsored media some way, huh? Quick question if I may, what with you being an employee of mine, what is the time stamp for ANYBODY using the word annexation you corrupt immoral government propagandist fear mongering lying shill!

Thanks for your fearless work, Katie. This question absolutely needed to be asked, and #CanadaStrong absolutely needed to hear the answer.

You get a chance to ask a question in the Whitehouse and that’s what you ask??? Good grief DEFUND THE CBC for the love of God!

CBC Reporter knowing that the more Trump discusses 51 state stuff the better Carney does, seen an opportunity to not leave the scab intact.

Just another liberal fear mongerer.

I hope you feel great knowing you might cost some Canadians their job, going into bankruptcy and ultimately homeless. Thank you once again for being a brain dead journalist.

Carney thanks you for the distraction.

Gotta keep it in the news eh CBC?

Maybe put your hand in your pocket next time.

This election interference ma’am….

Great job!!!! Just shows their continued lack of respect for our sovereign nation..

I dunno. It seems very unusual to see a CBC journalist appear in the US press galley and ask a 51st state question which been quiet in the news cycle for a month. Why ask it on the eve of the election debates? Smells fishy.

Keep whipping it up Katie, as we wouldn't want the elbows up crowd to calm down any.

Bravo, Katie! Love your reporting.

Hopefully the PM sends you a nice bouquet for your efforts. Well done. Everyone knows that without the “51st State” nonsense and the Orange boogeyman, Carney has nothing to whip up the vote. The Liberals certainly can’t run on their record. Ugh. And I used to trust the CBC.

But I thought that Carney said that he had made progress in his call with Trump? I guess that you can mark that one as another of Carney's lies during this campaign.

Give up Katie, you have long been forgotten.

You’re just trolling for Carney. We get that your salary is at stake.

I guess you are getting a promotion if Carney wins! What did Mark promise you? Typical compromised journalist.
