Charlie Angus, a member of the Canadian Parliament, wasn't having it with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump "playing for the rage algorithms."

Summary

Canadian lawmaker Charlie Angus criticized Donald Trump’s recent tariff threats and attacks on Canada, calling his behavior “juvenile” and “idiotic.”

Trump has proposed a 25% tariff on Canadian and Mexican goods, blaming both countries for issues like migration and fentanyl.

Ontario officials warned of potential retaliation, such as barring U.S. alcohol purchases or restricting electricity exports.

Trump’s remarks, including mocking Prime Minister Trudeau as “governor” of Canada, have escalated tensions ahead of trade negotiations.
