U.S. Annexing Canada (split fm Liberal Minority thread)

[MARS]

I don't think there will be a deliberate one. Unless it's by force. The only thing Canadians can unite behind is not being Americans.

Which was, word for word, the PM’s statement on CNN last night. This is probably the right message.

 

[Quirky]

Sure. But you do understand what he is trying to tell you right?

Beyond being outraged at the situation online and changing your profile pictures of "I stand with X", there is nothing average Canadians can do to change any future eventual outcome. Opinions, either way, are utterly meaningless. We will have an election this year, that's the only thing we can control.

Affordable is a debatable concept when Canadians everywhere are complaining about finding "free" doctors. Or houses. Or jobs.

Americans are also complaining about those things, minus the “free”.

That is at least a part of the reason why Trump got in the second time - because “price of eggs” and all that.

…ok?

This is a discussion forum. We discuss things. Shooting discussion down because “it doesn’t change anything” is silly - why post on a discussion forum if one isn’t planning on discussing anything?

I had to read that twice to believe that there has been a positive statement about PMJT in this forum in the past year.

Read the following in the style Colonel Jessup, in A Few Good Men:

CANADA: You want Me as 51st state?

Trump: I want Canada!

CANADA: You can't handle Canada!

Son, we live in a rink that has boards and you get checked in those boards. Who's gonna take it for the team? You? You president Musk? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for your trade deficit and curse our defense spending. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that your trade deficit, while tragic, probably saved your lifestyle; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves your lifestyle.

You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that rink -- you need me on that rink.

We use words like "fore-check", "back-check", "blocked-shot". We use these words as the backbone of a life spent winning gold medals. You can't even use them as Punch line, because that was Canadian too! (I wonder how many people will get that reference)

I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a "girl" who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the energy that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it.

I would rather you just say thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you join a rig crew and drill yourself. Either way, I don't give a damn about joining you!

I give you the City of Melfort, SK.

Dryden (Ontario) - City: pop ~7400
Oakville (Ontario) - Town: pop ~214,000

The municipal monikers are meaningless in Ontario.

I am willing to give Trudeau props for doing the right thing.

Unfortunately, that is vanishingly infrequent.

Thought this was good

Ok here’s the second positive statement:

He’s resigning

 

[FSTO]

I give him no credit.

Him and his buddies did nothing get this country ready for the whirling dervish that will be the Trump presidency. So now at a most dire time for this country since 1812 the sitting government is in turmoil and is more interested in saving its political skin than doing what is best for the country. Trudeau and the rest of his McGill alumni hangers on can GTFO and may we never see the likes of these bozos ever again.

Agreed they should be shackled, put on a prison ship and sent to Van Diemens land.

Sorry Australia.

You are being too kind with the BOZO moniker. Grade 8 Student Council, Eco Zealots living off Mom's Credit card as they ride their bikes.

All he did was sit there and think a Trump victory would help him politically.

He chose poorly.

Another reason why the heat from US on Canadian borders and security?

According to this investigative journalist Canada is the major fentanyl producer by cartels for supplies going into the US. At about the 1:19.00 mark.

 

[Brad Sallows]

This is becoming the longest bi-national squirrel chase in history. What else is going on behind this distraction?

Thanks super interesting

The fact that Trump unlikely to achieve peace in Ukraine on day one or free the Israeli hostages day one. But tariffs? He can do those day one.
