Canadian Voter's Epic Take On Trump In Viral Interview Clip Has The Internet Cheering

A Canadian woman explained to CNN how her decision of who to vote for to be the prime minister was based primarily on who could "take care of" President Trump.

A Canadian woman has gone viral following her NSFW interview with CNN in which she explained that her decision of whom to support for prime minister In Monday's election was based primarily on who could "take care of" President Donald Trump, who had threatened Canadian sovereignty amid an ongoing trade war.

In the end, Canadian voters returned the Liberal Party to power for a fourth consecutive term, although Prime Minister Mark Carney will lead a minority government, according to projections from CNN’s broadcast partner CBC.


The Liberals secured 169 seats—three short of the 172 required for a majority—meaning they will need support from smaller parties to govern. In several ridings—or electoral districts—the results were tight and may face judicial recounts in the coming weeks.

And now this woman's words have attracted considerable attention and praise.

She said:

“I think who I voted for would be the best to take care of Trump. Because Trump is, I’m sorry to say, an asshole, and he shouldn’t even be president of the United States. But because he is, we need a strong person so that we can stand strong.”

You can hear what she said in the video below.

Many concurred.



Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney declared early Tuesday that his country would “never” yield to the United States, as he celebrated a federal election victory and pledged to “represent everyone who calls Canada home.”

Carney has emerged as a prominent voice of anti-Trump resistance since winning the Liberal leadership in a landslide following former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s resignation last month. He has made defending Canada’s sovereignty a cornerstone of his campaign, pushing back forcefully against Trump’s threats to annex the country as “the 51st state.”

Conservative opposition leader Pierre Poilievre conceded defeat early Tuesday, capping a dismal night for his party. Once enjoying a commanding lead of more than 20 points over the Liberals before Trump returned to the White House, Poilievre also lost his long-held parliamentary seat of Carleton to Liberal challenger Bruce Fanjoy. He had represented the Ottawa-area riding for over two decades.

Poilievre had been widely seen as the frontrunner after Trudeau’s announced departure in January amid plummeting poll numbers, a deepening cost-of-living crisis, and growing unrest within his cabinet.

But the political landscape shifted following Trump’s imposition of tariffs on Canadian goods and renewed threats to the country’s autonomy, so it's safe to say Trump's efforts to intimidate our northern neighbor have backfired dramatically.
