"Warned"? What are you going to do, invade Europe for not buying our weapons? These chucklefucks legit think they own the world.
This is the same US government that's currently complaining it's too difficult to do business in Quebec (a province of a country the US is threatening to invade) because native French speakers insist on speaking French. The US is demanding they use English.
I’ve also missed this. The narcissism of American leaders has no bounds.
It's about Quebec's Bill 96, which requires companies of a certain size to do business in French (so documents and communications must be available in French), and also requires French labeling on products (with parallel English labeling optional). The USA complains that this is too onerous. But Quebec is a French-speaking province, so it's like complaining that France expects you to do business in French.

It's like being in Montreal and shouting English at people like it'll help them understand.
