It seems they updated the headline to "Trump, Vance shout at Zelenskyy in heated Oval Office meeting".

I hope readers put some pressure on them, CBC is always on their high horse talking about journalism integrity, but quite often they forget to follow their rules.

They have another segment on "world leaders' response", but there is no "world" there, safe from Trudeau's and Russian ex-president's twitter, it was just American legislative voices being boosted, mostly Republicans.

It was good that he kept his cool. I think this is something Canada needs to pay attention to. Trump is unhinged as is Vance. They're going to try even harder to drag Canada through the mud as being oppressors, leeches and everything he can think of to make us look bad.

This is a sign of things to come for Canada with the current group of fascists in power, so I hope our government can push back since no one else seems to want to come to the defence of our country as England basically shunned us when they were asked about Canada with Trump.

He may not be holding all the cards, but he just handed you your own ass in your own office, you rotten f*cks.

America has been bullying the rest of the world since it emerged from WW2 not only triumphant, but holding the notes of every single Allied nation -- the last WW2 debt payment to the USA was in 2006, or possibly later. Being rich and having every nation's mortgage gave it the clout to insist that we all live the way they wanted, or be proven Commies. Like it or not, Trump, Vance and, let us never forget, Musk, are just the ultimate articulation of what it means to be America.
