US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent: In Canada, we've had a freerider problem for a long time. They had a great military, they were at the forefront on the beaches of Normandy. Now they're "cellar dwellers" on military spending with Spain. Canadian businesses aren't with Carney.

The Americans are now greater patriots and saviors of Canada than the Laurentians.

Yes, too bad our military dropped below 1% GDP under Harper, but it was brought back to almost 1.5% under Trudeau and will hit 2% by year end 2026 under Carney. At this interim NATO target level, hardly a "cellar dweller," but no doubt Bessent knows a lot about cellars. 🐀🐀🐀🐀

Iran war going for shit. ✅ Bond market going for shit ✅ Trumps polling going for shit✅ Change the channel - attack Canada✅✅✅

I would argue the US has been free riding on Canada

Many Canadian citizens aren’t with Carney.

@JoMacFreedom Trump has forewarned Canada that the Golden Dome Defence System with cost Canada $60 billion . If rejected, how will Europe protect us from a Chinese or Russian invasion ?

Free riding my ass. Trump is just looking for somebody to buy his overpriced military junk that was unable to beat a middle power like Iran. Why would we spend money on weapons that don't work? Just so that US defence contractors can add more Billions? Hard Pass.

Midterms self destruction.

America is ok to be transparent. The Trump administration know exactly what they’re are talking about because America went through it with the Biden Administration. Biden tried to feminize and demolish our military. They’re saying something because they care about your well being. Certain countries are ushering ideologies and BS into the wests armies. It’s important for the west to have stable, strong healthy, likeminded and all doing our share.

They lost more than 100 soldiers fighting alongside US troops in Afghanistan

literally ALL facts.

Canadians, most especially the "elbows-up" crew, are having their ears tickled by our domestic "news" media. They need a healthy dose of reality. The Trudeau government did immense damage to Canada's economy, our unity, businesses and our reputation as a serious nation.

Everybody is with Carney, including a majority of Americans.

Ain’t the usa free riding with our ressources?

Polls show the opposite.

Canada has a cheap buyer of oil , who likes to pay way less just to be ahead .. Cheap USA bargains the price..

He’s not wrong at all. The truth hurts.

Bessent is 100% correct

Canadians are behind Canada. Not political parties or political figures. We actually have morals here and love our national sovereignty.

“The Canadian Military are not with the Prime Minister”….well thats quite the statement.

Losers and failures - Trump and Bessent

saying that while we are meeting CURRENT nato targets… slow clap

He disgusts me

That must have been some potent weed that the Treasury Secretary was smoking during the entire invasion of Afghanistan.

Lol....just ss pea brained as his leader.

He’s not lying

Canadians don't give a crap what this lying liar has to say. He doesn't know anything about us.

The bond market is about to give this fool the beating of a lifetime.

Goodness this administration doesn't like Carney's leadership of Canada and the road he is on.
