Melanie Joly, Canada’s new foreign minister, meets with US counterpart Antony Blinken

New Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Joly on Friday met with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken in Washington, D.C.

Canada is particularly concerned about proposed U.S. electric vehicle tax credits for American-built vehicles, which Ottawa says would hurt the integrated continental auto industry and put thousands of jobs at risk.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is set to bring up the tax credits issue when he meets with U.S. President Joe Biden and Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador next week at the so-called Three Amigos summit.

She has zero qualifications for this very important position. But team Trudeau is all about optics, not competence.

Melanie Joly is so hot. She will do well in this job.

[luisochoa]

Melanie Joly lol, I remember when she blocked me from Twitter just because I was criticizing her bad take. Absolutely unfit to be in government. She can't handle constructive criticism.

[kenmunro]

Remember to work for CANADIANS by saying NO, rather than being told what to do.!

If he’s Blinken, then Harris must be Winken, and Sleepy Joe is definitely Nod.

[patatebanine]

She's cute and smart but shes not qualified to be in that position. She doesnt use the right tools in diplomacy's domain

[lukeatmyas]

Joly represents Canadian 'soft power'.

[HaralaMasli]

this had to have been an embarrassment for Canada. she's not at all qualified

[mashkapiroshkov]

She needs to take acting lessons from our drama teacher in charge.

Didn’t know that Antony speaks French lol

Canada initially supported Israel and is now waiting patiently, relying on diplomacy to resolve the conflict. The real issue is that Canada should have never supported Israel from the start. As a result, Canadian civilians are now at risk due to the reckless decisions of politicians who backed Israel. Now, Israel's enemies have become our enemies too.

Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly’s office staff did not read an e-mail that said her department was sending a representative to a Russian embassy party – missing a chance to avert an incident that has embarrassed Canada at home and abroad, two senior government sources say.
Embarrassing yup that’s Canada

[fittestofthefittest]

wow, who did she peg to get that job....

[forte]

Her experience is that she speaks French

[mitchgingras]

one fact that can't be denied. If NATO was wound-down instead of up after the fall of the Soviet Union, 'we would not be in this mess'. But! NATO employed thousands of people and needed to stay relevent to save their jobs. So here we are, pure and simple.

[PatrickBateman]

Melanie Joly proves that no one wants to go into politics.

[Kevin-hzld]

We have real movies star style minister!that is cool!

[samsonnight]

No Covid test requirement in US Canada Land border please

I think our first foreign war was with Canada, but that was so long ago that we weren’t even a country yet. We still paid taxes to the king of England. But we didn’t pay any taxes or rent to the local humans who lived in the forests. Odd that.

Anyone else get butler vibes from the black guy?
Did she not know where tf she was going 😅?
