Why would anyone think twice about this ridiculous word fart from a demented rapist?
Move on, nothing to see here.
A lot of these hypotheticals can be answered by “we’ll just slaughter anyone who makes a fuss” because that’s where our country’s moral framework will be if we ever march troops across the border. Like an ultra nationalist fascist state is going to concern itself with old treaties and popular sentiments.
From a Canadian prespective, we would commit all the war crimes we could against an invading force, especially one we could not fight a conventional war against and win.
Im talking sending American GIs home in unrecognizable condition.
I dont care what government is in power by then. Invade Canada and be prepared to die in horrible ways, mutilated, and sent back to your loved ones in chunks.
This is the only way we could win a war against the US and we would not hesitate to do it.
You shouldn’t hesitate. And some USians would like to join you in eradicating the fascists.
The Geneva checklist
I vote for a trial where we test Canada taking the Western states.
…and the Northeast too, please.
That would be cool, especially California, then we’d have somewhere warm to visit. LOL
Um… you can’t take California without also taking us in Oregon and Washington with you!
It’s all about perspective…Live in Manitoba or Saskatchewan for awhile and virtually everywhere is warm to visit.
(Ok maybe I’m still a little salty about the -40 temps and my pipes freezing three times this winter.)
Hey even us ‘soft’ Torontonians had windchill at that temp several times this season. And snow, helluva lot this year too, almost like Buffalo. 😂
The bonus is that kind of weather makes us appreciate the warmers days that much more.
It’s why we can walk around in shorts when it’s 8C (46F) outside.
What about going the other way, we take up the metric system and coins for our 1 and 2 dollars instead of paper bills?
We’ve tried dollar coins a couple times.
But never with taking away the bills. Get rid if the bills and force the coins and voilà.
Aren’t dollar coins used in the US? Because I’ve used them in dollarized economies (e.g. Ecuador) and I assumed they were fairly standard everywhere.
We have them but they’re somewhat uncommon. I needed three for a project recently and had to go well out of my way to find them
In terms of the metric system, just tell Americans that they’re still using the occupier’s system (British redcoats). 😉
Ugh, we’re not even. We’re using the US customary system, which uses the British words but aren’t the same values as British Imperial values. They’re actually pegged to the metric system, so if the definition of a kilometer changed, so would the definition of a mile.
We’re using metric with extra steps. Not to mention certain products are already in metric, and everything else has the metric on it already.
The most disturbing part is that everyone is still discussing it.
You give him power by taking his mouth diarrhea as something more than just that.
Enough of this. Nobody took him seriously in 2015 and we got what we got. You’re not going to head him off by talking or not talking about him.
Trump does not have a sense of humor or a long-term tactical mindset. He speaks whatever is on his incomprehensibly selfish mind. When he says over and over and over again that he could run for a 3rd term, he means it. When he says over and over and over again that he thinks Canada should be annexed, he means it.
Thank you. It’s just so f’ing baffling how many people still think the right approach to Trump is to underestimate, ignore, or otherwise write him off. We know what happens when we do that. This lesson has been taught to us time and time again and it’s carried Trump to the White House twice.
This whole thing came out of accidentally calling Trudeau ‘govenor’. Trump made a simple mistake, but it’s the reaction he got that caused this to keep going. Trump is a bully and bullies thrive on getting reactions. It could have been stopped early if we ignored his dumb ass then, but now it is too late and we need to show strength to get him to back down.
No, it didn’t. This whole thing came out of Trump randomly deciding to punish Canada with huge tariffs for no apparent reason* and he made the insinuations against Canada’s sovereignty in furtherance of that.
(* actually, to manufacture casus belli)
My opinion is that Trump negotiates this way - Ask for something outlandish and breathe a sigh of relief when he settles for something less. Gets press — but you’re right about power. However the news being the way it is on a continuous cycle, content is needed. He understands that.
You feed his mouth diarrhea back to him. Waterboard his face with it.
Don’t give a reason, they’ll just say it’s not a problem. Just say no
Ignore border…done. No big deal. Lol. But why? Because an idiot wants to ruin another country? I much rather wait for better times like when we obtain similar health benefits maybe?
