First off We are Allies, this is FOOLISH Second the only way the US will take Canada is ECONOMICALLY Because the LIBERALS have RUINED CANADA and BANKRUPT CANADA
I am a retired Veteran and just thinking about this is Awful
What is going to happen in Canada when a Democrat President gets voted in the States, whenever that happens? All this damage that Carney has caused is going to have huge ramifications in Canada.
Wars can be fought on multiple fronts in different ways. We are currently in a trade war with America, started by them, as well as having them threaten and dismiss our sovereignty. This is not the act of an ally. Much like how relations with Germany are currently good, we can considering repairing the relationship with America when theis war and these acts of aggression are over.
I literally have family across America from north to south and east to west. That is no reason to put up with the hostility their nation is showing ours.
Big war tactician are you, have lots of time in the trenches? I am well aware of our trade situation and I wouldn't call it a war by any means. That's just the legacy media fear mongering the sheep Bhhhaaaa The Actions of our PM of not communicating with the President and by flying all over the world and delivering huge Nothing Burgers back to Canada. He had made 1 US trip and very little attempts to make any real deals with Trump himself.
What's the point of negotiating with Trump? We had a trade deal negotiated with him that went into effect 5 years ago. Now he's doing all the shit we've seen for this whole year. 5 years is yesterday in political and economic terms. Also, you are wrong. He visited in May and October, so 2 visits in 7 months. And people all over the world have tried to make deals with Trump. Almost none of them have worked out at all, let alone well.
As for an actual war, with armies meeting in the field? I don't need to be a tactician to see that trying to go toe to toe with the country that spends more than the next 9 largest militaries in the world, which does not include Canada, is a fools errand. I also don't think our military leaders are fools. I'd be completely unsurprised to learn that they have a plan for guerilla warfare should America try to invade. In spite of their military spending, they haven't been successful against those since Vietnam, and we are uniquely positioned to bring a guerilla war into their territory.
So I was wrong on one thing. Meh Now like it or lump it Trump is playing by his rule book and it is full of loop holes and he is using everyone especially the **"For National Security" **one
Now Mag. Retard onto the War and Military. We would never have a military attack against the US or at least not a Canadian sanctioned attack. The US will only take Canada by Economic means and they can wait us out.
Do you know How many countries in the world are still having troubles with Trumps Tariffs? Major trade disputes Doesn't seem like all over the world
China
Canada
European Union
Brazil
You mention 3 countries in your list. Care to give your opinions on the other 87 countries?
Also, I never said Canada would attack America. America has already started a trade war and threatened to annex us. I wouldn't rule out that devolving into something faster or more aggressive from the guy who wondered why nuclear missiles were just left sitting in silos instead of using them and renamed the Department of Defense to the department of War.
Your list is out of date, there are only 3 countries still having troubles with Trumps tariffs.
You mentioned guerrilla warfare and attacks against the US. You are not going to make a very good soldier, Major Retard, with a memory like yours. Are you going to need a service monkey while in service or are you even fit for service?
India is still in the process of resolving their tariffs with America. That's just the one I was aware of from recent news. So now we're up to at least 4. How many times do I have to prove you wrong while you provide nothing to support your claims?
Oh, which wars has America won against guerilla forces? The laughable War on Terror? Where Trump arranged the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan and handed the country to the Taliban, one of the initial belligerents in the war? Or Iraq, where it collapsed to one of the variety of IS groups mere years after they withdrew?
Once again, your opinions are presented as facts with nothing to back it up except your deeply held beliefs topped off with slurs. You remind me of the quote, "A lie is halfway round the world before the truth has got its boots on." And I'm bored of refuting your opinions with contradicting facts, and I can't be bothered to stoop to your level with the name calling.
I don't even know who I am talking to half the time when I am on here the names are so small Lemmy needs avatars so I can tell what crazy you are, if we are up to 4 that's a lot less than the original isn't it? .. how many did you say there were? I also get lost wandering around here as well LOL now I know how my father feels Where were we... What do I need to back up. Afghanistan? Was Trump supposed keep the troops there in a country that has been fighting since Christ was a Cowboy, Man the Russians tried to win that war and they pulled out of there in 1988-89 because it was a no win war and Trump knew this and was tired was seeing lives wasted so he started the end of the end. Sleepy Joe didn't seem to have a problem taking possession of the Trump agreement to withdraw troops and hand all the military equipment over to the enemy. Don't like the name calling don't start it.
