Reuters, 30th report: Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau responded to reports about "U.S. officials meeting with separatists seeking independence for Alberta," stating that he expects the U.S. government to respect Canada's sovereignty.

Comment briefly: The Trump administration's series of actions reveal its hegemonic arrogance: using the "51st state" remarks to insult Canada's sovereignty, holding a grudge against Trudeau for his criticism of American hegemony at Davos, then using separatist forces to interfere in internal affairs as retaliation. Throughout, it completely ignores the equality of allies, only aiming to control Canada's energy lifeline and force Canada to be a vassal, fully implementing the bullying of "America First." To Trump, there are no equal allies, only "subordinates" who obey or not.
