If you are unmoved by these facts, it is worth asking yourself why. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

It is also worth considering where this climate of anti-Muslim violence, which continues to claim innocent lives, might come from. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

These are facts worth considering before you hit send on that contrarian take or tweet about how Muslims are the real problem. — PolitiTweet.org

Anti-Muslim violence is rising in the US and Europe. A man plowed a van into Muslim families just 3 days ago. Declared an act of terror. — PolitiTweet.org

But that weirdly has been an opportunity. While Europe still fighting Trump on Article V, and losing, Canada is taking a more independent FP — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

And by focusing on trade, Canada has let some slack develop w the US on other issues, especially in upholding the global liberal order. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

The strategy's real test will come if/when Canada calls on US mayors, governors and reps to oppose Trump on NAFTA. Will it work? Who knows. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

This strategy has downsides. All I spoke with in Canadian govt acknowledged nothing can solve for Trump's unpredictability & volatility. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

That this worked, which still blows my mind, has really emboldened Canadian leaders. Not afraid of flexing muscle w the Americans anymore. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

Scoop here: Canada killed New York's "buy American" plan by privately threatening what amount to trade sanctions (!) https://t.co/RjTpYI0MFz — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

There's now a grassroots network of Canadian allies across US govt. Mostly in place to be activated in case Trump tries to kill NAFTA. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

And it's working. After most US allies have thrown up their hands & walked away, Canada is finding quiet successes: https://t.co/RjTpYI0MFz — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

Hard to overstate the scale of this. Huge swaths of Canadian govt has taken on a second set of duties as diplomats working in the US. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

If you're American, there's a high chance the Canadians are already cultivating, and maybe met with, your governor, reps, and maybe mayor. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

Canada's plan is to deal with Trump by cutting him out, instead forging direct ties w every level of US local, state & federal govt. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

Here's the inside story on Canada's quiet, audacious Trump strategy. Unlike anything I've seen in alliance politics: https://t.co/RjTpYHJbO1 — PolitiTweet.org
