Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-Ohio), a close Trump ally, announced Thursday that he will introduce legislation to sanction Canada and Canadian officials over the huge wildfires that have poured smoke and haze across the United States, creating hazardous air-quality conditions.

“I’ll be introducing a bill next week to sanction Canada and the responsible Canadian government officials for this atrocity,” Moreno posted on social media.

The Ohio Republican reposted an image of a deserted boulevard in Cleveland with buildings shrouded in haze.

Moreno’s office criticized Canadian officials who failed to contain wildfires, creating huge smoke clouds that have created dangerous air quality across Michigan, Ohio and other parts of the country.

Moreno believes Canada’s government needed to invest in wildfire prevention methods such as forest thinning, fuel reduction, prescribed burns and beefed up enforcement against arson.

1. Query: How can Canada control the breadth and the travel of smoke

from so many wildfires? They're doing their level best to contain the fires as is.

2. Ok, I knew repuke politicians were incredibly stupid, but I didn't believe they were that incredibly stupid!

Bloody hell. Not wonder America is going down the tubes!

3. How incredibly stupid. Or are they being funny? Of course some of the smoke is from Minnesota.

4. Is he gonna try to sanction Minnesota for the BWCA wildfires, too?

Wadda maroon.

5. Stop electing stupid people

We need to fight climate change. Having morons in office does not help.

6. When I first saw this I mistook it for an Onion Story

I have to admit their creativity is boundless in finding ways to express how effing stupid they are.

7. They should have to build a wall of fans to keep that smoke on their side of the border.

They should also sweep the forests like we do.

10. Maybe Trumpy can sell them lots of cheap rakes??

8. You have to be both desperate and stupid to push something like this.

9. Sounds like an "act of god" to me

Not like it's acid rain or anything like that, which we sent to Canada.

11. Canadian Senator sanctions Republicans for denying Climate Change is Anthropogenic.

Fucking dipshit. Great job, Ohio.

[Hey Joe]

12. Two, (or more), can play at this stupid game.

How about Canada and other nations sanctioning Trump and America, for starting a major war in Iran that is causing worldwide economic chaos, pain and destruction?
I see more relevance for that than forest fire smoke.
Geees….🤪

13. It''s the wind that is blowing the smoke low. Canada's

boreal forest is the largest in the world and there are not roads that penetrate most of it. What do you want, canoe brigades armed with rakes?

14. You can't fix stupid
