Grass get over it. You have no idea what we are gonna get and neither do i.

Would you prefer a communist state cause what you are saying is bordering those lines....

The people have spoken......respect it.

Yep, total unpredictability - that's one of the problems.
Where did I write anything that could be considered as preferring a communist state? Like Trump you just seem to make stuff up. As a final comment on this sorry election process - I guess the election was rigged after all hey? funny how Trump has gone quiet on that one now?

Grass see you miss one point normal people spoke against the establishment see under democracy a election happens and normal people vote even it the media is saying one thing.

But grass you remind me of a neighbour years ago that was NDP and he could watch Blakney screw up Saskatchewan so bad and cost him his job yet still vote NDP. You could beat him with a 2x4 and he still would sing the NDP song. Funny he's gone and now his kids who actually didn't work for the Unions vote Sask party.

Ok Mr Trump, this is real reality and not reality TV. You are in charge of a huge public empire that casts a massive shadow over your small personal empire in comparison. Act like the Statesman that you have been granted. Time to get real.

ps...put away the spray tan!

I don't understand how any farmer from Canada could be in favour of more protectionism out of the US. That's not even mentioning his racist policies and him wanting to turn back the clock on women's rights.

I must admit his wanting to reduce red tape is appealing, but human rights should Trump most anything else IMO. Is it the end of the world, absolutely not, are we going backwards, IMO we are.

His bark may just prove to be much worse than his bite! Talk is cheap! Actions cost.

Everyone should count their lucky stars that Trump got in. A Hillary win would have been a disaster for US-Russia relations. The world is a much safer place today.

Donald has the potential to right the ship and believe me thats in everyones best interest. The middle class has been nearly wiped out, unemployment sky high, and hope fading. Hillary would have been great if you want to live in a Madmax post nuclear apocalypse.

What we witnessed last night was a cultural war. The disenfranchised rural vote, Midwest, Rust Belt, "fly over states", spoke loudly. Working people sick of elites, sick of Wall Street bankers, sick of pay to play politics. Trump represented the only candidate from the beginning that couldn't be swayed by special interest groups. He made the people his special interest group and they rewarded him with a mandate. He was a hand grenade lobbed into politics in the US. I especially loved his, "and, we're going to drain the swamp in Washington" line.

Who will drain our swamp? Will anyone step up to pull us to dry safe ground out of the muck of the carbon taxing, inheritance robbing, deficit inflating muck in Ottawa?

Finally we have some one who will call BS on the climate change propaganda, Yay! Coal mines will be dug starting soon and Keystone will be built but it will cost us more. He campaigned on the plank that he will pull America out of the hole that they dug for themselves. Also, he said he will rip up Nafta, the Paris Accord and most of the others. He will stop Muslim imigration for awhile and surely the Mexican wall is his first priority. The criminal element better watch it now. He could just drop criminals on the other side of that wall, LOL. There will be interesting times. Hope he lets us in when we fly to Vegas. I definitely will take my tufbin off.

On a lighter side, Mick Jagger just tweeted he has been invited to sing at Trumps inauguration. Said he wants to sing"you cant always get what you want"

Only problem I see with Trump winning is who we have running Canada.
Now if we had Harper back I'd be very happy.
Mr hair-do truedo and Trump are exact opposites.
Now if only we could get a Trump type person to run Canada.
The guy actually cares about his country. Must be nice having a leader like that.
