Trump Ejects Canada From Gaza Peace Club, Invites Putin Instead
KEY POINTS
- •On January 2026, Trump rescinded Canada’s invitation to his Board of Peace after a public spat with Prime Minister Mark Carney at Davos.
- •Carney emphasized Canada thrives independently, pushing back Trump's claim that 'Canada lives because of the United States'.
- •Other invitees to the peace board include Putin and Belarus’s Lukashenko, while Macron declined to join.
On January 2026, President Trump officially rescinded Canada’s invite to his dubious 'Board of Peace' for Gaza just days after a Davos meltdown where Prime Minister Mark Carney clapped back at Trump’s claim that 'Canada lives because of the United States.' Trump, refusing to let Canada keep flying the maple leaf on his schedule, blasted the insult on Truth Social and dropped Canada like a bad trade deal — again. Meanwhile, Macron, Putin, and Belarus’ Lukashenko get VIP passes to play international peacekeeper, despite the obvious 'are you sure?' vibes. Canada’s response? Thrive independently, diversify trade, and remind everyone it’s not the 51st state. Also, did we mention Carney’s been elected mainly to oppose Trump’s 'annex Canada' fan fiction? Red hats everywhere are still confused.
