On December 12, 2025, American commentator Tucker Carlson delivered a series of explicit, uninterrupted statements during a live interview with Matt Walsh that collectively amount to an open endorsement of coercive action against Canada. In the span of roughly three minutes, Carlson engaged in an unprecedented narrative assault on Canadian sovereignty and legitimacy, asserting that:
-
Canada is “not even a country” – overtly delegitimizing Canada’s status as a sovereign nation.
-
The Canadian government is murdering “tens of thousands” of citizens each year – accusing Canada’s Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) program of essentially mass state murder, including of children, and “harvesting the organs” from those killed.
-
The U.S. should consider invading and occupying Canada on human rights grounds – explicitly framing a hypothetical military intervention as morally justified, and repeatedly insisting “I’m not joking even a tiny bit” to underline the seriousness of his advocacy.
-
Canada is “way worse than Maduro” and even “worse than China” – claiming Canada’s alleged crimes outstrip those of Venezuela’s Maduro regime and the Chinese government, thus positioning Canada among the world’s most egregious human rights violators.
Fuck that fascist and all his cronies.
Fuck Tuck the Cuck.
They continue to lay the foundation for this, I’m not sure how they could make it any more clear that the new (old?) world order that has toppled US’ previous more diplomatic one is siding with the sort of dictators, tech bros, and billionaires that seem overly keen on invasions and neocolonialism. Canada, you need to build up your defense and your borders in the same sort of way Ukraine wishes it would have against Russia before its “three day special operation”.
They are trying desperately to normalize countries trying take nations like Russia is with Ukraine. It is such dumb and ham fisted propaganda.
The US President should have been immediately removed the first time he suggested it. As an American who has always considered Canada our closest ally it is a disgusting betrayal.
Removed by who?
The legislative and judicial branches have voluntarily subjugated themselves to the executive.
Nobody has the power to remove him except via an election. And that did not work out too well last time.
Removed through impeachment. Something we are long overdue in the US for. Until we make an example and prosecute the President no one will ever fear retribution.
This classism that exists in the US and the rot it is causing is far past the breaking point.
This executive supremacy nonsense is garbage policy supported by garbage people.
Again. Impeachment by who?
That failed twice already and that was back when we all thought Congress was an independent branch of government.
You need to, at the very least, get rid of Mike Johnson before you can even dream of getting rid of Trump. But even that still leaves the Senate. Have you compared your views on legislative oversight to those of Tom Cotton?
And see the SCOTUS decision on presidential immunity for their thoughts on judicial oversight.
By Congress, which he was successfully impeached by twice already. The second part of the removal process involves the Senate and a trial where the President would be relieved of their duties.
I get that you are skeptical, but that is the way it is done. The United States has payed lip service to legal equality for far too long with classism being the defining factor in our culture.
This problem isn’t just holding a President accountable, but also holding those who are wealthy accountable. You could argue that when you put both these together you create the perfect storm of privilege.
The US should change their motto to by the rich for the rich so its citizens can finally understand why their country is the way it is.
Come up to Canada and say that shit, Tucker is a fucking coward and a fascist loving piece of shit.
Venezuela is a test. If the world does not stop them, Canada is next.
Has anybody seen that World War II movie? They do a pretty good job of this storyline in that.
Tucker Carlson delivered a series of explicit, uninterrupted statements
They aren’t statements so much as outrageously blatant lies.
If the US invades, we Canadians will be more than happy to update the Geneva Checklist as part of a long, drawn out, insurgency that will make Vietnam look like a sewing circle and Afghanistan a minor quibble about who picks up the cheque.
If America invaded Canada, I’m going full insurgent on Canada’s side. There’s a lot of railways and bridges to… update.
It’s a short walk to a poorly monitored area of the border.
And I can look and sound enough like an American to blend in while looking for things that might accidentally fall apart an an unexpected moment…
YouTube and Twitter platform him.
They don’t just host him: they spread Tucker Carlson algorithmically, preferentially, deliberately, because it’s outrageous and engaging, and make many millions doing it. And people nodding along will never be shown this article in their feeds.
If you want a “root cause” boogeyman here, it’s Big Tech. No one would give a shit about Tucker Carlson if it was a “fair forum for free speech” like they pretend it is, and they’re the ones that will percolate this up to the White House.
So, yeah. It’d be great if y’all could ban those sites in Canada, if they don’t fix that.
And the rest of the world.
Ban us. Please. Thanks.
- An apologetic American.
Banning stuff isn’t the answer. I believe in actually free speech and discourse. Our media up here is already so saturated with American thinkslop, the CBC is our last stand (and under constant attack by Conservative grifters).
I believe in the right for Tucker to say what he’s got on his mind, just as much as I believe in the right to point our fingers and say, “get a load of this fucking idiot.” Buddy looks like an absolute tool bag, and obviously is just karma farming. That’s how these people like trump and him get so rich, they karma farm this shit. That’s true evil by the way.
Twitter/YouTube isn’t free speech. It’s not open discourse. It is an algorithm that decides what to show people based on how engaging it is, individually.
I can’t emphasize this enough; there is nothing fair about it, and it’s not a “debate” because it sycophantic by design. Any right to free speech shouldn’t be equated with that.
Ok but banning speech goes both ways, hey!? That means the speech you find acceptable might come into question by others.
It’s a slippery slope. Maybe the slipperiest. Freedom of speech also means sometimes you need to hear some stuff that makes you want to vomit.
I really wish we’d ban or even regulate American tech companies but the minute we try, we end up getting bullied out of it by your country. I’m still mad that we cancelled it but I’m hoping as we fully cut ties, we’ll actually be able to go through with things like that.
Though realistically given our geography, our situation is akin to trying to improve things for ourselves while being caged in with a paranoid and cocaine fueled mountain lion so who knows.
I’m just hoping you guys can get yourselves under control whether that be through balkanisation, complete rebuild of government or anything because while I will proudly fight myself into a grave to defend our sovereignty, I really don’t fuckin’ want to have to
Honestly, from my perspective, the US is bad.
People act like things will get better here. But our social media has an iron grip on everything, especially leadership, and now we basically have an influencer government that knows how to work it and wants to entrench social media. Corporations love it. Attention spans are short.
I just don’t see a force that wants to get us out of this spiral. Anecdotally, I have smart, postgrad-educated family that’s repeating stuff from Fox News I never thought I’d hear from them, family working jobs where their CEOs are drinking the Kool Aid…
What’s going to happen is US corporate power will increasingly influence the government, fiscally, politically and psychologically. Unfortunately, I think it will stay central, not balkanize. The States have ceded too much power, and there’s too much vested interest.
Other countries I’ve traveled to seem sensible, though. Even with a Big Tech problem.
My hope is you guys band together with the EU, Mexico, the rest of the Americas, Africa, Asia and such. Lean on the British. It’d be much harder for the US to try something if there’s some kind of pact that would complicate it.
Yeah, he’s been on this anti-Canada kick since near the end of his Fox News career. Word was, he’d made a “movie” for airing on Fox News that urged an invasion because Trudeau was a communist. The sooner this propagandist is relegated to the wastebin of history, the better
Jamil Javani created the group Protect Christians Canada in December 2024, using the same kind of language and misinformation to justify their position. One thing that seems to be coming from the US evangelicals is this idea that religious rights are human rights. That Christians religious rights should take priority over personal rights because giving people personal rights is against their religious rights.
This kind of insane bullshit is the reality for many conservatives in Canada since Postmedia and the CPC seem to be courting it. If you look at Postmedia, then places like Rebel or Juno, and finally move onto Twitter, there is a ramping up of this same narrative. Where Postmedia has the volume turned to 3, Rebel is at 7 and Carlson is turned up to 11, but if you really listen, it’s the same song and dance that relies on the same cognitive distortions.
The sooner this propagandist is relegated to the wastebin of history, the better
Or shoved in a literal wastebin.
In fairness, you guys do have a lot of oil
Our oil is very dirty and expensive to extract. It’s highly susceptible to being made unprofitable every time oil prices drop.
You know what country has the most advanced infrastructure specifically designed to process Canadian heavy crude. That would be the United States.
Its the processing that happens on site that is insanely costly. The stuff is almost coal in viscosity, but doesn’t burn because its mostly sand.
So is Venezuela’s. Hasn’t slowed them down.
We were feared by the Nazis. I think everyone forgets were insane.
Feared? Maybe Yaroslav Hunka was startled a bit by the sound of applause. But Canada’s got something of a mixed reputation on fascism, historically speaking.
In WWII Nazi troops prefered fighting other people than Canadians is all I’m saying here.
I don’t know what the above person was talking about, but Canada has a pretty insane military record. Not necessarily a great record. One made up of insanity. Our government is also just shy of explicitly pro fascist. I think the above person was referring to our military record. Not the invite Nazis to be celebrated inside the government record.
Our government is also just shy of explicitly pro fascist
What the fuck are you talking about?
Nazi war criminals were welcomed into Canada. Jewish refugees into Canada were sent back into Nazi Germany. Nazi war criminals were openly celebrated in parliament. Government has materially supported genocide while saying that it’s abhorrent. There’s lots of examples. You just need to look
I’ll grant you the post-WW2 stuff had a lot of shitty and sketchy thing attached.
I don’t think what happened 80 years ago reflects the current state (or even structure) of our government today.
That’s a bit of a stretch. The inability of some low level bureaucrat (an intern if I remember correctly) to do a basic amount of background research before extending an invite, doesn’t exactly instantly mean a government is pro fascist. Like let’s knock this back down from a ten to a two on the panic scale a bit.
If you wanted to argue that Canada as a whole has a checkered past of racism and arguably some fascist tenents, you aren’t entirely wrong. We have historically treated the aboriginal population terribly, and this is their land. There’s the mass graves of little children, that we kidnapped against their will, entrapped and abused, to contend with. We imprisoned innocent people with Japanese origins during WWII. Like we ain’t perfect either, for sure.
Uh oh.
I didn’t really realize this. Yeah, Candanian invasion is probably a ticking clock…
Tucker Carlson is a wholly owned Russian Asset. Tying up the USA in fruitless wars with its immediate neighbors would be a Russian and Chinese wet dream.
Trump is going to start a war somewhere in North or South America to weaken America before Russia and China make their moves on Europe and Taiwan.
He’s already been trying to start a war with Venezuela for a while now.
he even went there like last year to help with thier propaganda.
finally got his marching orders from the kremlin after being really quiet for the whole year.
He should have kept the bow tie. Dude got so scarred by Jon Stewart he’s never been the same.
They will come for us when they need the next out-group to persecute. People like Fucker Carlson are leading the call.
I’m doing research for my blog on "when and where did the US start hating and out-and-out showing hostility towards Canada. No doubt the present US administration is smoken bad shit, and they’re presently the culprits with the hostile takeover talk. This is life-changing and dangerous rhetoric for both sides of the border. However, through research, I found that this type of insult from the US appears to have a long history. Now I have to research why? One answer could be: They’re still pissed that we nearly burned the White House down hundreds of years ago?
I wouldn’t normally correct on this because it’s a fun story, but since you said you’re doing research, look into the burning of the White House. It was done by British Redcoats based out of the Caribbean.
However, through research, I found that this type of insult from the US appears to have a long history.
To quote Trudeau (the elder) when responding to something Nixon had said about him
“I’ve been called worse things by better people”
I prefer it when the US ignores Canada.
Things seldom go well for Canadians when they pay attention to us.
Everyone is better off when the states don’t post attention to them. They only pay attention when they can exploit
From what I’ve experienced here, it’s just ego and not being able to handle hearing that another country might be better at something than America. I don’t know that the burning of the original president’s house is even that widely known here, and what few times I’ve ever heard it brought up, I’ve never seen anyone get upset or treat it as anything other than a random bit of history trivia from a long time ago. But I’ve watched right-wing Americans get very defensive around the topic of Canadian healthcare my whole life. “That’s communism, it doesn’t work, did you know that Canadians pay half their salary in taxes and whatever other made up bullshit about Canada that Fox News told me.” Narcissists don’t like hearing that someone else is better at something than them and would rather start attacking than defending their position.
Project 1861
Don’t forget that the reliant nature of our economy has been a work in progress policy of the US for decades. Trump wouldn’t have the leverage on us that he does if NAFTA were never signed, for example. Trump is especially virulent and too stupid to keep his mouth shut, but the US has never been a friend, they’ve always been trying to get us into a submissive position. Previous administrations were just wise enough to keep it quiet and friendly-seeming on the surface.
