As state-level Republicans in Alaska work to affirm their close relationship with Canada amid U.S. President Donald Trump’s trade war and threats of annexation, an Alaskan senator has warned British Columbia’s premier that “you don’t want to mess with Alaska.”
Dan Sullivan of the Republican Party, who represents Alaska in the U.S. Senate, made the remarks in an interview with an Anchorage radio station posted to his Facebook page.
During the conversation, which touched on topics ranging from energy development to Ukraine, Sullivan, one of two senators who represent the state in Washington, was asked about B.C. introducing legislation that grants the province the ability to levy new fees on U.S. commercial trucks heading to Alaska.
Did our 4th territory mumbled something?
There is a town in Alaska that on the boarder, they have no access to anything other than some town in the Yukon, although they are in the US they use the Canadian dollar and celebrate Canada Day. It is unlike Robert’s Point or whatever that towns name in Washington state that is practically a suburb of Vancouver if I understand it correctly. Or the Canadian island in New Brunswick that has an unreliable fairy to the mainland and a bridge into New York.
Damn that unreliable Tinkerbell.
I had to reread my comment to understand the statement, but it was a good one.
Oooh, that feels like it could genuinely grate on them. Talk about straight, artificial-looking lines.
