Canada

Not a snowballs chance in... in.... Canada?

Those are actually decent odds.

Trump is a total fuckwit. No way we’re becoming American. I kindly invite any Canadians who want to be American to GTFO.

Trump lied about anything and everything. It's impossible to call him out on any of it because he is so good at creating these bullshit headlines. Inflation, Ukraine, healthcare, abortion, doesn't matter, if he needed to say something in the campaign to win he said it.

Now in a short time, we will know what he is actually up to, but for now, he generate so much bullshit that becomes a cls command. The media, headlines, social, all his bullshit. Everything he said before, cleared off the screen (front page).

The man is an literal technocrat with extreme skill: Techno: skill Crat: power

He has everyone wrapped around his finger. Well played Mofo.

I specifically immigrated to Canada from America. I refuse to go back.

Canada can come down here and burn down the White House. Again.

I'll provide the marshmallows.

I prefer Elizabeth May's invitation to California, Oregon and Washington.

USA can stay red, impoverished and ignorant. The adults in the room can get on with Nation Building.

The irony that if the reverse happened so much would actually improve for the ex-Americans, Canada, and most of the World.

In the past, Trump has accused Canada of accepting a $100-billion subsidy from the United States. It's unclear exactly what he is referencing, but it may refer to the trade deficit between the two countries.

But on Tuesday, that purported $100-billion subsidy rose to $200 billion. CTVNews.ca has reached out to Trump's media office to clarify what the $200-billion figure represents.

"I love the Canadian people, they're great," he said. "We're spending hundreds of billions a year to take care of Canada. … We can't do it forever."

It sounds like what is going on here is, Trump is doing the normal Trump thing of starting with a conservative narrative (austerity, cutting off moochers) and brazenly lying about the state of the world to fill in the blanks of that narrative, knowing his supporters are happy to live in a fictional world, knowing he can't be called out on it in a way that will matter, knowing that it will get people to continue paying attention to him.

“What do they want from me? I'm good-natured. I'm good-hearted. I'm good-looking. Every day, I'm out there trying to make the world safe. For ~~Germany~~ America. I don't want war. All I want is peace. Peace.

[singing and dance number start]

A little piece of ~~Poland~~ Canada, A little piece of ~~France~~ Greenland, A little piece of …”

If Canada were to be annexed into the United States, it would rank as the third most populous state, and the second largest in terms of GDP.

As it is the second largest country in the world, it's size would be unmatched by any U.S. state. In length and girth.

For now…

Once PP gets the reigns, Trump will just push him around like the spineless demagogue he is. …just a ‘lesser Trump’. Canada will be sold out by PP. Mark my words.

Trump needs to shut the fuck up.

"In the 21st century, war was still waged over the resources that could be acquired. Only this time, the spoils of war were also its weapons: Petroleum and Uranium. For these resources, China would invade Alaska, the US would annex Canada, and the European Commonwealth would dissolve into quarreling, bickering nation-states, bent on controlling the last remaining resources on Earth."

All I can say is freedom isn't free. Maybe that's something Canadians need to learn, I don't know - I don't really want to assume. But I got a cascadian flag tattoo on my left arm like a soldier's patch for a reason. I've been thinking in neomedieval military terms since I was a teenager at an alternative high school in the late 2000s.

Freedom needs to be constantly defended. If you can't give up any kind of tribute to a governing authority or series of governing authorities to defend it for you or don't find any existing entity as authentically defending it then you frankly have to defend it yourself. Same principle for arguing in favor of participatory democracy - if you don't participate in democracy in some meaningful way you are bound to lose it.

Try as he may, Herr Drumpf will have to pry the maple syrup from my cold, dead hand.

Canada will stay the way it is.

Reminder: Canadians Change When they Hear the Word “War”

Would be curious and sad if the new premiere campaigned on a position of strength and willingness to defy the orange fuhrer, only to end up grovelling like all those before him.
