I'm a realist. Resistance is futile; Canada simply does not have the resources to function without relying on American money to keep the country running. Let's negotiate now from a strong position before Trump's tariffs make us weaker and weaker.

It may make us weaker in the immediate future but it will also weaken the States to the degree where it will hurt their population just about as much. The policies are dangerously similar to those of 1910-1920s America and we know how that turned out. Well maybe not you, but people who have read a history book know how that turned out.

Ah so the mask is off and your intentions are revealed. You’re probably not even Canadian.

So then GTFO and GTFO this board, MAGAt.

I'm the furthest thing from a Trump supporter. Born and raised in Calgary.

If you dislike Canada so much, you can get the #### out. We don't need traitors and yellow bellied appeasers here, particularly now. Show some backbone or leave.

Haha yellow bellied, I like it. Canada has no backbone, as evidenced by our complete and total trust in the USA for our national defence and total control over our foreign policy. I remember just over twenty years ago when Chretien wanted to legalize weed, and one phone call from George Bush's state department got him to totally drop the idea. How silly were we to actually run out west to east pipelines through American land, thus totally ceding our rights to operate them independently? That's not even silly, that's just stupid.

All this may be true. If your solution is to throw up hands and become America, good news, you probably don't live far from a border. Maybe stuff a balloon of fentanyl up your butt on the way out.

I miss when he kept it to the national team soccer thread. I thought it was a bit of a Looch City schtick for a while. Turns out benefit of the doubt was misplaced there.

I'm just glad that I can finally wear my Canada merch again without people possibly thinking I'm some Maple MAGA dickwad. All those dummies have traded in their Canadian flags for American ones now. Good, because recent events have me feeling especially patriotic these days..

Well I got my steps in by wearing a Team USA jersey downtown. I havent had to run like that for a long time.

Between the people I stole the jersey from, the jogging club and then the angry mob it was hard to determine which group was most upset about the entire ordeal.

I’m bald with a big beard…. Canada garb hasn’t touched my skin in years…. I know exactly what I look like in it: One of those idiots.

Yeah we can make it all sound comical if we pick out individual items. We can make it alllll a big joke, haha it’s not billions of dollars worth of goods, it’s just silly orange juice. Bahahahaha. Jesus ####ing Christ.

We retaliated in kind to being unreasonably penalized by the states. We would look like blankets to the international community if we caved. Instead, we’ve absolutely earned respect. Even amongst yanks.

LOL - do you really think that? Are you familiar with the phrase “When America sneezes, the world catches a cold”? The US economy dwarfs Canadas in every measure. There literally is no action Canada could perform to hurt the US that either they can't compensate for or would hurt Canada even more then the US. Even the energy. US is the world leader in Energy production. What Canada doesn't send can simply be compensated for by increase capacity or export less. Problem solved. Then what does Canada do with the oil and gas they don't send to the US? Ship it to Europe or China? How? By ship? Good luck. I really hope Ford shuts down the electricity to Michigan in retaliation then the fireworks will really start.

You think Trump really wants to annex Canada? This would be the last election GOP ever won. Add Canada to the current deadlock and US votes Dem for pretty much eternity. Recognize bluster for what it is.
