Seems that Trump wants to Annex Canada or at least try destroy the Canadian Econ to starve Canadians into submission. The question on Annexing would it be done by force?

FWIW he literally couldn't point out Canaduh on a map.
Sure he can, it’s the one with the MatterhornQuote:

Yeah so how did it go last time, as i remember he had to play ball with that pitt bull in the nice dresses Chrystia Freeland
The reality is the trump talks alot but he is not as smart as he tells you
so is for every stupid thing he threatens to do narth of 49 there was something canada could pull south of 49 entirely tit for tat and I think he knows it this time round
I do not understand the point of JT going to Mara lago ?
Does Canada currently possess effective armed forces? I think the 121st chairborne brigade assisted by Meal Team Six could do it.
Mayeb we just burn the whitehouse like last time eh ?
I told myself I wouldn't mention it but ...
we shot the pig, you declared war, we got the islands in the end.Quote:

Don't worry, Canada will re-activate The New Canadian Airforce!
Time to dust of your Salomon 1080s.
Being Canada is like having a long term boyfriend relationship where the boyfriend has just turned rapie though always has been a bit of a pushy asshole.
Trumps an asshole and the proposed tariffs are dumb. But.
The strong do what they can, the weak do what they must.

Trump just admires all of the dastardly shit Canadian mining companies are doing around the world. Death, destruction, pollution, murder, takeover of indigenous lands…it gives him a tiny, mushroomy stiffie.
Canada is doing a far better job of destroying itself than the US could possibly do.
I’m headed up there today, recon, see what there is to plunder.
Bless your heart…
True statement but that was more acceptable in ancient times and medieval times unless you want the US included in the august company of :Quote:

Plenty of folks down here don't align w) Trumplestiltskin!
Also, if you turn the key everyday for work and play, you're just another cog in the machine. Just like the rest of us!
Trump telling Trudeau he would make an excellent governor was hilarious.
Hmmm, I thought JT went to Mar a Lago because Canada doesn’t allow convicted felons entrance to their country…Quote:

Trudeau fell into Trump's childish trap as one would expect but +1 for Trudeau for showing up and being ready to deal.Quote:

Ive been trying to think of a tongue in cheek reason why it would be a good reason to include America's Hat in the rest of Her outfit... but im honestly stumped. Its pretty dialed already- easy border crossing, great exchange rate for me, speaks english (fuck quebec give it back to france), has weed, my medical insurance works well there. There just isnt really much to complain about... the relationship is pretty dialed already IMO.
I guess the only reason id want to take it over is so that my professional licensure would work there by comity, and id also change the speed limit signs to freedom units (right now im honestly flying blind just trusting the speed of the cars around me).
Ok my bad I responded to a stupid whataboutism with another even more out of date. Though I don't get your logic, American oil companies are owned by Canadian interests in a range 3-5% so they are no way responsible for the actions of those companies . Its up to the US gov't to regulate what they do offshore. Just in the same way Canadian oil companies that might have 30-40% US ownership are still Canadian companies. Though Canadian oil companies have overall trivial ownership outside of NA.Quote:

Yes if Canada has a $100billon trade surplus with US its because we ship 1.6 billion barrels to the US plus some gold . If you don't want it from us then give use time to build the pipelines to sell it to china. We can even put a export tax on it to pay for the pipelines. I'm at the point that we should really distance ourselves from the US commercially and security wise. Our only real threat is the US and it always have been . The last time the US was thinking of invading Canada was in the 1930s so not that long ago.
Not to be serious or anything
Imo Americans are generally nice people. Whoever they vote for that doesn't change much.
Same goes for Canucks.
Again imo I divorce the individuals from the collective
And here's a nice Canadian rock slab we can go ride. I think it turned out well

Trump is a geriatric toddler distracted by shiny objects. He wanted Greenland at the outset of his first term. Plus, he's pissed that his mail-order hooker/wife gazes lustfully into Justin's eyes. But this is just schoolyard bully tactics. He wants the Gretzky rookie card, and thinks you should be happy with Roberto Luongo. And that's pretty much how it's going to go when Poilievre is PM.Quote:

Canada is banning more classes of guns as we argue
Who really wants Canada to be part of America ?
This isn't really true. In round numbers 75 million voted for Kamala, and 89 million didn't vote. Trump only got 77 million.Quote:

They say that 50.3%, in the media... they say 50.3% of the eligible population participated in the '88 election.
But I think the figure's a hell of a lot lower than that. You gotta consider prisoners. We got more people incarcerated in this country than any other country in Western history.
Noncitizens, the underage, the overage, people too old to get to the polls.
People out in rural areas. People who don't have addresses.
I mean, to be conservative, the figure's more like 35%.
So Bush got 54% of 35%. What's that, 18%?
Maybe 18% of the people in this country support him.
That's nothing. That's nothing. That's not a mandate."
"It just seems like one day it's gonna dawn on everybody that this large nonvoting majority has been winning every election for the past three decades.
And the people who win these elections are gonna be too ashamed... or better yet, too afraid to even take power at all."
Yes you are correct and I've always thought that way but the prospect of maybe more popularist protectionist administrations down the road and the unsophistication of most Americans means dire consequences to Canada. We have to have a good hard think who is friend and who is foe. This coming up on the 10th anniversary of Ethan J's death makes me think on where America has come to. I worked 7 years where all my client/projects were Americans. Intel, Bechtel etc. and I never had much of a feeling of difference. But for Americans to be so cavalier about the invasion of another country and that what annexation is "possession taken of a piece of land or a country, usually by force or without permission. " Even Bernie Saunders mused on annexation which is disrespectful.Quote:

They would be a Canadian
I supose Americans are could be North Amercians if they want ?
not sure what Mexicans think other than they don't want to be called "Murders Thieves and Rapists " ?
AND please dude first nation's is the preferred nomenclatureQuote:

There IS good money in needfulness so our first nations brethren often rush off while stating
" gotta go man , land doesnt claim itself "
A couple of books by Richard Rhomer discuss this:
1) "Ultimatum" is the story of the U.S. invading Canada as written by a Canadian. More precisely, it is the buildup to the invasion, the haggling, set in the backdrop of the 1970s energy crisis as the embargo-facing US confronts resource-rich Canada.
2) “Exxoneration,” a sequel to “Ultimatum,” begins with the battle touched off by Canada's decision to reject the ultimatum of the American President, a tough?tasking Texan obviously patterned on former Treasury Secretary John B. Connally. It derives its name from the central action of the, plot — a Canadian?engineered take?over of the Exxon Corporation in 1981.
Spoiler alert - Canada kicks fucking ass! CA-NA-DA, CA-NA-DA, CA-NA-DA
As with anything coming out of the orange haired shit-gibbon's mouth, his statement regarding annexation is just more full on fucking bullshit.
Article 8 means that if US invades Canuckistan, US loses NATO membership & the rest of NATO would be compelled under Article 5 to attack the US & prolly would do so cheerfully if it meant aiming shit at Mar A Lago.
