It was a subtle declaration of war the first time he brought it up. After repeating it a dozen more times, we really shouldn’t be ignoring this as a country.

The United States under Trump is a foreign threat with hostile intentions.

I’ve been losing weight all winter so far by fasting. Built a home gym out of used stuff off locals. Next is navigating that whole gun ownership thing I ignored my whole adult life thus far, and signing up for training. My mom’s friend teaches at a Canadian Tire that has a gun range.

I’m getting prepared for hard times, whatever they bring. Hopefully not the USA invades Canada scenario. We’d get rolled.

You dont train to fight in a war against america, you train to fight in an insurgency.

Americans have no stomach for occupation, they pissed and moaned and ultimately surrendered to the Taliban, and that was on the other side of the world. and the cultures and appearances were so different they might as well have been Aliens.

They’d cry “terrorism” every day of the week, but the Americans would be torn to shreds by Insurgent activity on both sides of the border if they betrayed us. Much like how the Russians marched into the land of their “brothers” with assault rifles, and then wondered why people speaking their language who looked like them, were suddenly killing them all over Russia.

They once said that Ukraine would get absolutely rolled by Russia within 3 days, 2 weeks tops.

Never underestimate a pissed off underdog, especially when fealty to the US President is nowhere near as “strong” / co-opted as in the Russian Federation.

He literally just said he wants to take over Canada by “economic force”, I wish any articles included the full quote/context though.

At this point anyone advocating for or supporting Trump in Canada is guilty of high treason against Canada.

Start learning how to resist his nonsense now. With Trudeau’s resignation lil pp has adopted an election stance.

The fuckery is about to ramp up.

Oh, it’s been going on for a while.

I can’t find it right now, but there was a graph posted a few weeks ago showing how much the CPC outspent the other parties on campaign advertising in 2024. It was astounding.

If the US is willing to adopt a Westminster parliamentary system, the Canadian charter of Rights, official bilingualism (or, well, trilingualism, because Spanish) and give up silly ideas like the 2nd Amendment and life tenure of SC justices, something could be worked out. What do you mean no?

(Charter of rights is a sham, nothing in it but removable privileges, it’s very obvious the person who wrote it wasn’t much for actual rights, and legal scholars back then decried this)

There is little growth left in the US. The natural resources are allocated, the population rinsed for $2 for every $1 they earn. National debt runs at numbers that are practically unimaginable by humans.

What is an expansionist empire to do ?

It’s not coincidence he’s talking about Canada, Greenland in this way. The oligarchs have been going after Europe for a decade.

These aren’t the ramblings of an idiot . It’s Americas plan.

Canada Mexico Panama Greenland now president Musk is talking about freeing the UK. America is on the war path it seems. I think the world is going to be blind sided by this. Europe should get off of US tech. Everything the US says about China is something they can do also.
