In a rapidly changing world, the longstanding partnership between our two countries remains essential. At home and abroad, there is no going back to old ways - nor should we try - but as neighbors and friends we should work together to shape a better future.
The pleasure was all ours🇨🇦❤️🇺🇸.
After walking through the desert of intelligence that the US has become, it must have been like a glass of cool, clear spring water rather than having to drink your own urine.
Reasonable intelligent leadership is a pleasure. Unfortunately, under trump many positive attributes have fallen to the wayside. One is left with belligerence, grift, criminality, rudeness, incompetence, cruelty & malicious bigotry.
Canada is happy to have you!!
I would vote for Pete
Great pic.
Nice nice
Always good to see two adults in the room 🇨🇦🇺🇸👍
I can’t wait to cast my presidential vote for Pete!!
It must be refreshing to spend time with a real leader. Not to mention a real Human being. I remember when some of OUR politicians were real leaders and real Human beings. I wonder what changed.
Refreshing to see two gentlemen talk about things that matter instead of sleeping during an event.
I love the guy, but I hope he does not run for president and gives Dems a chance to win the next presidency. Although, as a VP he would have given Americans a chance to get used to more progressive ideas and maybe win in the future.
Nice to see someone with decency 💕🇺🇸
Pete & Scott/Scott & Pete 2028
Our future President if you're ready for another fight!
Please immigrate to 🇨🇦 you would be a great addition to our Country!
Sanity
pls build up credible, competent and visionary left leaders. pls counter the boring right wing narratives with a convincing, inspiring and very practical community narrative.
Stay the hell out of Canada. American scum.
I hope PB is our next president.
Why is some American dude who holds no current office meeting with the PM?
I hope PM Carney was receptive to renewing a relationship with the USA in the future. He is doing a great job for the Canadians.
Hopefully you told him we're sorry and we'll try to do better in the future (hint: 2028).
it must have been a pleasure to speak with a leader who is respected around the world unlike Fat Bastard!!!!
Mr future President
Did Trump say it was treason?
Bernie would have won
Dang I sure wish you had run for Senate in Michigan.
I would have invited you up to Lake Huron and enjoy a local dinner with a lake view and friendly folks who know you are doing a wonderful job. Next time, tell PM Carney to take a drive. We would be thrilled to host you. A big fan, from the Ontario's West Coast, Kincardine.
Two highly intelligent, forward thinking men having a wide ranging convo. So nice, in this day and age.
Talking Saults Saint Marie?
Come back anytime:)
Isn’t it nice to see two intelligent people talking to each other not one idiot talking at everyone
Woopie shitvyou fucking dnccorporatewhore zionist, third way pig.
Carney just announced a new energy policy. He spoke calmly, coherently in a structured, logical way. He didn't talk about himself at all, didn't call journalists "pigs" or "dumb". He was articulate in both English & French. As a Canadian, I don't agree with him on every point, but at least he's sane
I trust you apologized on behalf of our citizens.
Know why Donnie sits so far up and almost out of the chair. His squishy diaper
Why do all country leaders need a flag to remind them which country they’re in? In the old days they could remember.
THIS IS WHAT DIPLOMACY LOOKS LIKE 🇨🇦 🇺🇸 ‼️
Aside from the pleasure I take seeing these two humans together, how refreshing is it to have a modern and fresh backdrop to the meeting?
The UK’s loss was Canada’s massive gain
How did it smell in there?
It was a pleasure to spend time with Prime Minister Carney last week in Toronto & not commit suicide #FixedItForYou
Surreal when you consider what we've had to look at in the White House for the past year.
Not anytime soon.
I'm the prime minister of Canada. Hello
i'm sure our PM was happy to meet with Barack last week and now you both intelligent and articulate and able to comprehend the issues that matter to both countries - not just driven by self enrichment
Hopefully you were discussing the Canadian takeover of the Northeast and West Coast (and Michigan of course).
Must be refreshing for @mark-carney.bsky.social to actually deal with a rational adult from America.
Two amazing men in politics. Pete I could see you moving to Toronto where you would be so much more appreciated here than in Republican USA.
Thanks for visiting us. Trump has never done that. He was here ONCE for a group political meeting: he arrived late, and left very prematurely. Guess it wasn't centered on him.
2 intelligent men speaking together. 👍
🥰🇨🇦
Thank you for coming :)
Accusations of Pete joining with Obama in the coup attempt in 3...2...1...sigh, if only...
Treason!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I don't trust that banker.
Sane, not a moron, not orange, not wearing a stinky diaper; I'm sure it was lovely.
It must be nice for Americans to meet a proper leader.
Hope you enjoyed your visit to Canada Pete.
Doing what? Talking about how bad Trump is? Doing a photo shoot? Meeting billionaire donors?
I bet . A rational person
Pete I bet you had a very good conversation with prime minister Carney! You two have a lot of common sense and are on the same page with Canada and the US!
Two incredible leaders who personify dignity and intelligence. What a respite from day to day American political reporting.
A real adult conversation
Most Canadians won't trust the US ever again. At any time, you could elect another clown like Trump and turn on us; most people see this now!
Oh! This sight is a breath of fresh air. Thanks for representing the better angels of America’s nature.
Nice to talk with an actual intelligent, coherent human being, eh?
I’m sure
I'm sure it was a pleasure for Carney to know not all Americans are bat shit cray.
Two intelligent, articulate politicians. What a delightful change.
That's our guy!! We are so proud of our PM - he really is leading the world in this time, leading us to a prosperous and equitable future. #TrueNorthStrongandFree
Great to see you spending time here in Canada, and with such a smart, decent man.
Two of my favorite people.
MAGA has shown us what the world looks like under their rule: and oligarchy with war and racism. This rock ballad says they have shown us, “What Evil Looks Like.” youtu.be/-bkCTdi3qXw
Any discussion of the US becoming the 11th province?
Thank you for representing the US, showing we're not all racist, corrupt whack-jobs.
I really like the sound of President Buttigieg. What do you, Pete?
What’s it like to talk with a sane leader?
Must have been a real pleasure for Mr. Carney to speak with an American who can actually speak and make sense.
That is great Pete! Why cant we have nice things and a President like Carney? 😢
🇨🇦🇨🇦
Canada loved having you, and I think many Canadians would be happy to see you as President one day.
You too?!? 🤩 Oh my goodness!! Thank you thank you thank you for keeping us tied to reality. Seriously. THANK YOU!!!!!
Carney must enjoy speaking with an American politician who isn't a greedy pig, a lying psychopath, and a moron!
Pete I hope you will run for the Presidency.A Canadian asking?👍
Perhaps you'll return as President.
Tell me you weren’t swapping Trump jokes.
So glad that you visited and agree 💯%
Get back to work.
Thank god we have people like Pete and Obama to try and keep the alliances somewhat intact behind the scenes, as opposed to ripped to shreds. When we gain control of the country we need to do whatever is needed to make it up to Canada and other countries. We have a lot of work to do.
It’s a pleasure to see politicians who aren’t criminal and insane.
Wow! That’s so cool. ❤️🇨🇦
doing what?
But how many pushups can you guys do?
Of course! He is a sane leader of his country!
He's an asshole, selling our country out to benefit Trump.
Mend that Bridge that Ahole Trump took a wrecking ball to.
That’s terrific. You look good, very, very capable & leadershippy😊 💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙
So nice to see an educated, experienced, and thoughtful leader representing the United States rather than the dirtbag pedophile representing us in China today.
A perfect way to troll the orange felon who should be legally banned from any foreign travel.
I'm proud of my PM 🤩
Must be nice to talk to an actual leader!
I envy you the opportunity. It's frustrating to have to look to the north for consistency & common sense.
I hope he gave you political asylum
Thinking of emigrating? 😝
That would have been an impressive conversation.
thank you Pete
How refreshing to not see the place covered with gold garbage.
Thank you Pete..
Perhaps he’d consider making the US a territory? They have healthcare and education!
@fairmonthotels.bsky.social - do better - the plastic water bottles? 🤬
I pray for Mayor Pete as President. Please please please Lord
Pete, we love you
Trying to appear presidential by not threatening to annex a neighbor. Bar is so low.
Nice to see normal US folks coming to Canada instead of the crazed Lutnick and Hoekstra. They make USians look bad.
Miss you Pete!!
Please take over from the madman
I hope you will be the next POTUS🤞
Hey Pete it must seem unusual to speak to leadership in a other country.
Two wonderful and very intelligent men.
Glad to hear, Pete. Prime minister Carney is a real leader, unfortunately we don't have someone like that here in our United States.
What was it like, dealing with a sane leader of a country?
Thanks Mayor/Sec. Pete, for stepping up and representing us👍🏾🙂.
That looks like a President we could be proud of!!
Just Pete prepping for his 2028 POTUS Campaign
Every country has gone flag crazy
Nice to see! Expecially just a few days after President Obama was in Canada.
Decent and intelligent politicians are always welcome in Canada!
This ain’t a real leader! Where’s all the gold and diaper smell?
Two well spoken articulate intelligent men conversing like adults. Sadly, this is a rare thing.
Good to know P.M. Carney has been reassured that not all U.S. politicians are unhinged.
How come there are two Canadian flags? *no political agenda here* I just want to know.
I love the sight of heads exploring and snowflake tears (because I know they are coming)
❤️🇨🇦❤️ 🇨🇦❤️❤️🇨🇦 ❤️🇨🇦❤️ You should run for President. ❤️🇨🇦❤️ 🇨🇦❤️❤️🇨🇦 ❤️🇨🇦❤️
PETE 2028!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
👍 Pete #1
Pete for President!
I bet you had a sane conversation filled with complete sentences 😉
Thank you Pete, for representing the "good" in the United States. And letting them know we are all not part of the cult.
Nice to talk to an adult in power eh?
PETE FOR PRESIDENT
👍
Collaboration FTW! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Two of my favorite people right now!! #ElbowsUp 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Looks like two adults having a “grownup” meeting. I’ve really missed normal policy making.
PETE👍👍!!
Hey, Carney will meet with anyone who will talk to him and make him feel impotent. Buttagiggi is there looking for a date though....😇..
Nice to meet the leader of the free world.
We need a leader like him instead of moron Trump
Ooooooooo dream team!
Don’t you dare move up there with your family no matter how attractive his offer may be … I understand it would be tempting but we need you too much here right now. And in 2028 …
Secretary Buttigieg when do you plan to announce? I hope it's soon. The country needs to know that the light we can barely see at the end of the tunnel is not a train. When Trump talks about America's Chinese restaurants during his China visit, the country's embarrassment was, I'm sure, palpable.
This is the kind of bilateral talks that we need. That we crave. Not whatever the hell is happening in China right now.
I like that there was no American flag… 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
fuck off people, i will get to to him. The most destructive central banker ever. You all forgot?
Goldman and McKenzie meeting on the field of play as good guys. bsky.app/profile/patr...
Two smart people having an intelligent conversation. We don’t see that anymore. How refreshing. 🧠🧠
Two adults having a substantive conversation. We hardly get that nowadays.
This meeting looks like it sucked there isn't any gold knickknacks about
Pete is more presidential than the current occupant of the WH
Tips on neoliberalism? Advice on how to grift a population? A conversation based on lie after lie? You cannot address climate change by doubling fossil fuel production. If not now, then when?
You can have him Pete. Have you looked at the legislation being passed? Maybe you should check Bills C-2, C-5, C8, C-9, C-12, C-15, C-22? They are all about violations of human, indigenous, immigrant, refugees, charter, constitutional, civic rights.
Hey Pete what's Canada like??? Give us a Buttigieg run down.
Must be nice to again hear a leader with a brain after the last fifteen months.
You, and your family, are always welcome here.
👀💙💛
I think red and white would look very nice on you. 🤔
Pete, I hope you told him to stop the Lithium mining on Native Land in Nevada. Thanks my man 👍🏻 #NativeRights #NativeLand
Looking forward to being friends with our neighbor again
Rail Against The Machine? youtu.be/rIyhQHW4CwA?...
Very presidential, Sir. Say it. Say you’ll run!
Petey is auditing PM Carney's efforts at the orderly conversion to a northern border invasion and reminding him that the NGOs are no longer paying Ottawa their hush money under the 'USAID' account, but now 'DNC'.
You're totally running for president aren't you? If so, please fire all of your consultants and just listen to the people, no matter how crazy their ideas start? When Trump was like "they're eating the dogs" and wanting to leave NATO, he won.
Our future Secretary of State getting a head start on the cluster fuck that is being left to sort out come 2029.
Pete is presidenting! YES!!!
Two actual politicians with a brain that still functions at a high level
I'm quite certain he was delighted to spend time with an American who is not a lying, narcissistic, sociopath.
Are you working on the Hershey highway?
It is always a pleasure listening to Prime Minister Carney and Pete Buttigieg. They are such eloquent communicators compared to Trump.
Do NOT drink the Kool-aid!!!
What a wonderful picture, Pete, two smart forward-leaning leaders. This racist BS in the South needs to be ended decisively, once and for all.
🇺🇸🇨🇦
Two intelligent men with integrity!
It is nice to talk to dignity from another country because you don’t hear lies every time they open their mouth or bullshit! That would be very refreshing!
Prime Minister Mark Carney is the Leader of The Free World.
For any Trump watchers that’s leadership, diplomacy and class on display
