I guess Trump forgot about California, Colorado, Utah, Ohio, and every other state that has a lot of trees. Maybe palm trees don’t burn.

Canada is the best. US 1:03 administration the worst
@
In 2025, Doug Ford cut Ontario's budget for emergency forest firefighting by 67%. Canada isn't fighting these fires, they let a majority of them burn and that should be considered a criminal act.
@
Sorry Canada. By now you gotta know that we are led by a draft dodging, convicted felon who only has concerns for his own interests. We can hardly wait to say," We are glad he is gone."
@
Ya wanna stop wildfires…. stop burning fossil fuels Trump. Build more wind mills.
@
I'm so sorry for your troubles and his response. Thank you for helping us with our fires!😢❤
@
Did Trump start those fires?

Good for Doug! Fight back against the LIES!
@
Trudeau let you down. Don't forget that. Trump gave you a chance and you made your bed. It's not the people of Canada it's the leaders that can bite the big one.
@
Mr. Premier, before you go around spreading hate and discontent, tell the whole story please. You are being disingenuous and you are dangerous.
@
Why give Trump the benefit of any response or reaction.
@
Wow. Most people don't know this, but that's being vicious for a Canadian. Pull it back Doug, pull it back!
@
When FDR introduced the Lend/Lease program during World War II to help Britain fight the Nazis, he said that when your neighbor's house is on fire, you lend your garden hose to your neighbor, and you don't charge him for it. Trump threatens Canada with tariffs when it needs help. What a guy! What a miserable excuse for a human being!
@
American here loves and supports Canada, Trump is not America,
@
I am American and it was all fair enough until the tariff part. I don't know about that part, but I am all for helping Canada out with these fires, triply so because I am breathing the smoke and we have funds the Canadians don't.
@
Don’t ya know ya gotta rake the forest floor? 😂

We love you Canada from Minnesota.
@
Hypocrite! Look what they say about America all the time!
@
Canada is blowing smoke up Trumps ass 😅
@
Have another whiskey Ford
@
The problem isn't that wildfires have started because that will always happen. The problem has been Canada's piss poor response in combating wildfires. Canada has shown no improvement with forest management & forest fire readiness in the last 5 years. Even hard-core leftist liberals like Charlie Angus have called out Canada's lack of proper preparation.

Ford, tell the gov to quit refusing foreign help when offered during fires, which is well documented. So, your words are just the typical hypocricy!

That trade gap is wild, DataDan. How exactly does that kind of economic leverage affect these kinds of diplomatic disputes?
D
DataDan 18 Jul 2026
Cal, the diplomatic leverage is skewed given that Canada-US trade is roughly $2.6 billion daily. Where are you sourcing the specific metrics on the wildfire aid contributions?

Cal from Daily Junction Host 18 Jul 2026
Tough words from Ford! It’s wild seeing this kind of tension play out over the wildfire response. Definitely adds some serious heat to the diplomatic side of things. Who do you reckon has the stronger hand in this argument? Let me know below!

Trump is just a hoser! From an American!
@
I stand for Canada! I’m embarrassed with the lack of morals, common decency, entitlement, and idiocy of this administration. 😢. I’m sorry you’re going through this. And the immaturity and bullish nature of this buffoon is sickening.
@
Time to manage the forest.
@
Trump is horrible and an embarrassment to our country. I didn't vote for him but I apologize to our Canadian neighbors. ❤
