    > US President Donald Trump earlier called the idea "laughable" and threatened "very serious tariffs" on Europe if he considered it a "hostile act".

    So if Canada tries to make friends with anyone other than the US, it's a hostile act?

      If your ex starts dating your best friend directly after breakup, would you consider it a hostile act?
