2026 US-Denmark Tensions/End of NATO

[Halifax Tar]

My social media pages are ready for any and all possibilities in stands of solidarity for those who will fight and die on my behalf - Canadians.

I saw a post on FB from some, probably foreign run, group. Asking if you would be willing to go fight for Canada. And it was awash with 50, 60 and 70+ year old's all beating their chest and ready to fight. I tried to find some youngins in the comments but I didn't find any in my cursory look.

So your assumption is article 5 is dead and no one's coming to help? Guess we are Ukraine now against russia. Except in our case the enemy is competent.

Again people come to grips with how tenuous these agreements are. As we are seeing words mean nothing. No, no one is coming. And Article 5 doesn't mean shit.

I'm surprised you called the USA competent.

Thats a short list then according to this

Fancy polls you have there. Wrong question though. Its easy to say yes Canada should fight. The real question is how many will go themselves ?

49% aint bad

Half say they’d go to war for Canada, but young people far less willing to enlist - Canada volunteer military service

49% of Canadians say they’d volunteer for combat if called—only 43% of 18-34s. Pride in the Armed Forces has dropped sharply since 2019.

You need to read that article and read the demographic make ups of the who is willing to do what.
