In response to Trump’s immigration ban, Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau tweeted on Saturday afternoon “To those fleeing persecution, terror & war, Canadians will welcome you, regardless of your faith. Diversity is our strength #WelcomeToCanada.”

Moments later, his statement was echoed by Scotland’s Nicola Sturgeon, who retweeted Trudeau’s comment and added “Welcome to Scotland too.”

We look forward to how the respective electorates of Canada and Scotland will react to this latest example of Twitter diplomacy, and whether Trump will soon be calling for a wall along the nothern border next.
