New Brunswick Premier Susan Holt on Wednesday criticized the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown in the U.S. that has now spread to neighbouring Maine, saying it’s making people in her province “very, very uncomfortable” to have them at the border.
Holt told reporters in Ottawa that the presence of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents at the New Brunswick-Maine border was affecting people with cross-border family and business ties that have already been struggling under strained relations due to U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs and attacks on Canada.
“We see what’s happening in the country,” she told reporters. “We see it in New Brunswick right now with ICE agents on the border of New Brunswick and Maine, in Calais. And it makes us all very, very uncomfortable.
“There’s nothing that we recognize in our neighbours right now, with the leadership that they have. We’re eager to support them in a return to the long-standing and strong partnership that Canada and the U.S. have had for generations.”
The Canadian army should run a bunch of exercises right on the border, just so they don’t get any stupid fucking ideas. I would absolutely not put it beyond ICEatzgruppen to spontaneously try to invade Canada. So, you know, elbows up.
ICE isn’t welcome in Canada or anywhere near our country
Hey, but the liberal news and some lemmy users are telling me that Trump is retreating, and that the fight against him is winning…. Don’t tell me that’s all a lie and every day we get closer to fascism?!?!
We do have a lot of successes. But whenever we do, he does something stupid again.
What are some successes?
DOGE got dismantled, Kilmar Abrego Garcia returned from El Salvador, Alligator Alcatraz got closed down.
Was doge dismantled or did it serve its purpose?
