  1. Trump the Real American hero is going to save Washington. I propose to replace the dollar bill from Washington to Trump. That would be epic. Real hero should be in the dollar bill, instead of an ancient old man.

  2. As a Canadian living in BC., yes there is noticeably more smoke in our skies due to this. I couldn't imagine wishing to punish people who have already lost their homes due to the fires. The Canadian response would be to help our neighbours.

  3. Worry not People of America, your president is working hard to make life even more unaffordable and completely isolating America from all of its allies that made it great in the first place.

  4. As a Canadian, can we now officially complain about the smoke the Americans are sending to Canada. Or should we just be the Canadians we really are and send firefighters to help you. You're welcome!

  5. Assistance – Washington state is home to about a dozen prominent billionaires, including tech and business leaders like Steve Ballmer, Bill Gates, and MacKenzie Scott. They could offer all the assistance required with helping those who lost everything

  6. Perhaps Canada should consider some “direct involvement in cross-border fuel reduction and firefighting capacity” in the United States, whether Americans want it or not. That is precisely what Michigan Republican Representatives Jack Bergman, John James, Lisa McClain and John Moolenaar proposed doing to Canada last month, so surely they won’t object now that the smoke is blowing the other way.
