International News Title: TRUDEAU SAY AMERICANS SHOULD PAY MORE ATTENTION TO THE WORLD TORONTO (AP) -- Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Canadians would appreciate it if Americans paid more attention to what's going on around the globe. Trudeau said in a "60 Minutes" interview to be aired Sunday that "it might be nice if they paid a little more attention to the world." Trudeau, elected in October, made the remarks after being asked what Canadians don't like about the U.S. "Having a little more of an awareness of what's going on in the rest of the world, I think is, is what many Canadians would hope for Americans," he said in a transcript released to The Associated Press on Thursday. The "60 Minutes" profile of Trudeau will air just days before he travels to the White House for a state visit. Trudeau said Canadians must be aware of at least one other country, the United States, because of its importance. "I think we sometimes like to think that, you know, Americans will pay attention to us from time to time, too," he said. He also seemed to take a jab at an unnamed U.S. presidential candidate whose rise he attributed to Americans' lack of knowledge of foreign affairs. A spokeswoman for Trudeau said she didn't immediately know what candidate Trudeau was referring to.

Perhaps Canadians should learn how to speak English correctly before criticizing anyone else. потому что Бог хочет это тот путь #2. To: SOSO (#1) Perhaps Canadians should learn how to speak English correctly before criticizing anyone else. Trudeau is a francophone who has degree in English literature. What about SOSO learning French?

Yes we would really like that to happen in america too!
#4. To: nativist nationalist (#0) TRUDEAU SAY AMERICANS SHOULD PAY MORE ATTENTION TO THE WORLD Why? Somebody correct me if I'm wrong,but hasn't it always been America that was bailing out the rest of the world for the last 300 years or so? ISLAM MEANS SUBMISSION! Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012) American Indians had open borders. Look at how well that worked out for them. #5. To: nativist nationalist (#0) I care what this bozo has to say.?
#6. To: paraclete (#3) Perhaps Canadians should learn how to speak English correctly before criticizing anyone else. I don't recall an American leader criticizing Canada or Australia though there is fertile ground to do so. потому что Бог хочет это тот путь #7. To: A Pole (#2) What about SOSO learning French? What about it? потому что Бог хочет это тот путь #8. To: nativist nationalist (#0) Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Canadians would appreciate it if Americans paid more attention to what's going on around the globe. Maybe the rest of the world should quit acting like spoiled babies who need their diaper changed. It's time for them to grow up, quit squaling, and begin wiping their own asses.
#9. To: sneakypete (#4) (Edited) 300 years, really! 300 years ago america was backwoods concerned with its own affairs, now if you said 100 years you might have gotten to the start of American engagement with the world. Your idea of world history is as faulty as your sense of geography no doubt due to your superior education system maybe you think releasing Africa of the negro race was helping out
#10. To: sneakypete (#4) Somebody correct me if I'm wrong,but hasn't it always been America that was bailing out the rest of the world for the last 300 years or so? Remember this from about 40 years ago?
I think his old man was PM of Canada at the time. Non auro, sed ferro, recuperando est patria #11. To: nativist nationalist (#10) (Edited) Well that was long ago and today Boeing is loosing to airbus, America has reneged on its commitment to Haiti, beggered their neighbours with QE belligerently postures in Asia, so play another chorus of rally round the flag and hail to the chief
#12. To: paraclete (#11) LOL! I still remember when you folks had your panties in a twist over these. You guys were screaming like James Brown on a cold toilet seat. Non auro, sed ferro, recuperando est patria #13. To: nativist nationalist (#12) What is that?
#14. To: nativist nationalist (#0) Trudeau said Canadians must be aware of at least one other country, the United States, because of its importance. We are aware of Canada... there is just nothing interesting going on there. Maybe they should hire Justin Bieber as a Canadian correspondence reporter so more (dumbass) Americans will pay attention to our very boring neighbors from the North!
