America does not view Canada as the 51st state, any more than Canada views United States as the 11th or 14th province. … Unfortunately, in our country, that guy's our president, and that's kind of the problem.

Since Trump took office, his administration has taken a number of actions that have negatively impacted Coloradans and our communities. If those decisions were based on political retribution against Colorado, we hope the courts will provide relief to Colorado. We have seen the very real impacts from the actions of the federal government against Colorado, and would hope that the president and administration would put people ahead of politics.
