    The issue isn’t so much that most Canadians don’t like war, it’s that war is on our doorstep and all the efforts we’ve made to avoid it haven’t worked.

    I know a couple of men who can’t be reasoned with or cajoled into doing what’s right. They’re the type who will murder someone because they felt offended.

    That’s what Trump is like as well. There is no half-way, no compromise. It’s his way or the highway. So essentially we have little to no choice in the matter. We either fight or we become the 51st state (or more likely a territory that has zero say in gov’t but who are taxed like they do).

      And that’s the mindset that drives wars. Misdirected anger. We aren’t mad at the average american, not even their soldiers.

      Who do you think wins? The soldiers that have been martyred on either side? Or the sociopath sitting beside the fire chuckling at the chaos they manifested?
