During a testy phone call with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, U.S.
president Donald Trump reportedly cited the War of 1812 in order to
justify seeing Canada as a security threat.“Didn’t you guys burn down the White House?” he told Trudeau. Trump uses War of 1812 to justify Canada as security threat. Some men from Canada did burn down the presidential mansion in 1814, but they were all technically British.
Picky, picky, picky. I will have to travel on my Irish Passport, yet at times the Brits still have a thing for us, but my lovely wife is descended from Canadians directly, and tracing back they may have been down in Washington at the time the President noted, one also was at Waterloo, so the French get a bit out of whack.
Well this will be a great holiday! I love the New York sense of humor! Happy D Day, also this is the day the US took Saipan and Tinian, a battle comparable to Normandy but less covered.
