George Floyd death: Elizabeth May says the U.S. ‘no longer a safe place’ because of Trump

Green Party MP and former party leader Elizabeth May said on Wednesday that she agrees with NDP leader Jagmeet Singh’s comment on Prime Minister’s Trudeau speech, that it’s “pretty words” but she believes pretty words are still much better than Trump’s violent words and actions. She called on the federal government to change the safe-country agreement with the U.S. so people seeking refugee status in Canada can get it because “Donald Trump made the U.S. no longer safe.”
