McCain Twitter-lashes Trump



Michael McCain, president and chief executive officer of Maple Leaf Foods Inc., posted a tweet Sunday evening blaming United States President Donald Trump for the airline crash in Iran.

One of his colleagues at Maple Leaf lost his wife and 11-year-old son when an Iranian-launched rocket took down the plane, killing all on board.

It’s highly unusual for a business leader to jump into a political issue, but McCain is getting lots of publicity for his tweet.
