It’s blatant extortion now.

    If they give in

    lol, no. The US are about to rediscover why Canadians were so feared in the world wars. Canada literally exists because we didn’t want to be part of the US. If you want Washington burned down a second time, keep at it.

      Gotta go further south this time. Warching Mar-a-Lago burn will be fun.

        I’m down, I know the area well. We can call it the March of the Snowbirds.

          If it gives me single payer healthcare? I, for one, welcome our new Canadian overlords.

            It’s being dismantled by Conservative provincial governments. And in Ontario at least, people can’t even be bothered to vote for a party that will preserve it. But I’d rather stay an independent country with problems that be taken by the USA.

            And as a respected media personality I can help round up others so they may toil in your underground sugar maple syrup caves.

            Well that seems a bit much to call Florida discount Canada, they need to work harder for that title.

      Hey, I’m not gonna complain, might even cheer you on. This administration is off the rails already and we are barely a few months in.

      I don’t understand their endgame here. I’m sure they could take over Canada by force if they wanted, but keeping it is a whole other matter. They should have learned from the many wars they fought that occupying land the locals don’t want you to occupy sucks.

        They think the economic damage alone will be enough to make us give up. It didn’t work in 1890 and it won’t work today. We will survive on lentils and water if it means we get to defend our country.
