Canadian lawmaker Charlie Angus................

Angus, when asked by Ben Meiselas of the MeidasTouch Network if Trump is “scared” by how Canada and the EU have responded to his plans of further tariffs, spotted “something deeper” brewing in America that Canadians are focused on: “watching our nearest neighbor slip into totalitarianism.”

“When we see people being pulled off the streets, when we see people at universities being grabbed, detained, rendered and kidnapped, and when we see Kristi Noem doing this really disgusting video in front of half-naked men in an overcrowded El Salvadorian prison cell,” Angus said.

“We’re looking at a nation that we don’t understand anymore and we don’t want to be like that nation and we’re thinking, ‘If we go down the road with this regime, we’re talking about the disappearance of the rule of law.’”

Angus — a fierce critic of the U.S. president — argued that if America can’t respect the “rule of law” of its citizens then how could people expect the country to respect international law.

“And it certainly doesn’t respect us as Canada,” he added.
