United States Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent insisted his country is “not at war” with Canada, then proceeded to mock the threat Canada could pose to his country with “submarines from the Edmonton mall.”
The secretary also suggested Prime Minister Mark Carney was to blame for the current “political shouting match” between the two countries because keeping the fight alive is good for his poll numbers.
Bessent made the remarks Monday in an interview with the U.S. cable news network CNBC, where he was asked if his country is now in a trade war with Canada.
“Well, I don’t think you can be in a tit for tat with someone that’s 13 times larger than you are,” he said.
“I mean we’re not at war with Canada. How are we going to be at war with Canada? What, are they going to take their two submarines from the Edmonton mall and sic them on us?”
They’re just pissed because they’re losing JTF2.
Seriously Canadas special forces are literally the most elite in the world.
When they need it done with zero mistakes, they send JTF2.
It helps when you keep your soldiers fed.
Ya the situation on that carrier in Hormuz is beyond stupid.
But like, for context, JTF2 has broken multiple world record long distance sniper kills. One of many accolades.
