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.
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.
minor ancedote, high treason is a term reserved for people already within the government or positions of authority. *
I better hit the gym and get back in shape just in case...
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.
Canadian Tires have gun ranges???
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.
Conventionally Canada wouldn't last more than a week. Unconventionally, the insurgency and resistance would tear America to peices. for the same reason Russia's plan for Ukraine was braindead and unfeasible.
When the cultures and appearance of two peoples who are each others neighbors are virtually indistinguishable, the resistance will tear the occupying apart from within. Ukraine has the benefit of having Europe on its border to flood them with Arms, Canada wouldn't have that luxury, the Government would surrender quite quickly, and be replaced with a Quisling government, However resistance against the occupation, the Americans wouldn't know what to do as they'd spend just as much time accidentally hunting their own people, (and lets be real, if something like this happened, America would de-facto already be in a state of civil war as large population centers revolt against a Fascist autocracy that's attacking its own people and America's historical allies and friends for no other reason than plain old fascism)
Sure, but Canada doesn't have the budget to match the mega trillion dollar army the U.S. has.
However, I doubt they would find enough recruits willing to go kill Canadians. They'd probably conscientiously object, except for a handful of bozos. Not to mention they'd probably get sanctioned by every fucking country around the world.
