We Don’t Surrender: Merging Canada Into The U.S. Would Be Too Absurdly Difficult To Even Discuss
-
Why would anyone think twice about this ridiculous word fart from a demented rapist?
Move on, nothing to see here.
-
We have them but they're somewhat uncommon
-
...and the Northeast too, please.
-
From a Canadian prespective, we would commit all the war crimes we could against am invading force, especially one we could not fight a conventional war against and win.
Im talking sending American GIs home in unrecognizable condition.
I dont care what government is in power by then. Invade Canada and be prepared to die in horrible ways, mutilated, and sent back to your loved ones in chunks.
This is the only way we could win a war against the US and we would not hesitate to do it.

The Geneva checklist
-
No, it didn't. This whole thing came out of Trump randomly deciding to punish Canada with huge tariffs for no apparent reason* and made the insinuations against Canada's sovereignty in furtherance of that.
(* actually, to manufacture casus belli)
-
Thank you. It's just so f'ing baffling how many people still think the right approach to Trump is to underestimate, ignore, or otherwise write him off. We know what happens when we do that. This lesson has been taught to us time and time again and it's carried Trump to the White House twice.
-
It's all about perspective...Live in Manitoba or Saskatchewan for awhile and virtually everywhere is warm to visit.
(Ok maybe I'm still a little salty about the -40 temps and my pipes freezing three times this winter.)
-
Hey even us 'soft' Torontonians had windchill at that temp several times this season. And snow, helluva lot this year too, almost like Buffalo.
-
The bonus is that kind of weather makes us appreciate the warmers days that much more.
-
It's why we can walk around in shorts when it's 8C (46F) outside.
-
Um… you can't take California without also taking us in Oregon and Washington with you!
-
Ugh, we're not even. We're using the US customary system, which uses the British words but aren't the same values as British Imperial values. They're actually pegged to the metric system, so if the definition of a kilometer changed, so would the definition of a mile.
We're using metric with extra steps. Not to mention certain products are already in metric, and everything else has the metric on it already.
-
But never with taking away the bills. Get rid if the bills and force the coins and voilà.
-
That would be stupid. When Italians were conscripted to fight against British soldiers in Africa, most of them didn't even like Mussolini. So what did they do? The surrendered and sat the rest of the war out.
That wouldn't have happened if the allies had a policy of mutilating their prisoners.
Fascism is a hate movement, and hatred is self-destructive. You can't defeat an enemy with hatred you'll only destroy yourself.
Offer an out for those that want to sit it out. Those that won't, are targets that need to be eliminated. Not a target of your fucked up torture fantasies.
-
Well it's hard to know for sure when trying to figure out the motivation of a crazy person, but it's probably a combo of wanting to change things on maps, thinking tariffs are a good replacement for having any kind of taxes on the wealthy, wanting Canadian resources for free, not understanding what a trade deficit is, and of course being obsessed with money. Also he probably has a grudge against Canada because Trudeau made fun of him and he's a small and petty man that's been given power.
There's also wanting to emulate his buddies Putin and Xi.
-
To be clear, you think there would be an actual war with any safe space to store prisoners? The US would roll over Canada's military in any open conflict, and crush any official bases. Any war would be entirely guerilla warfare, in which case taking prisoners is entirely unrealistic
-
Realistically, we are so fucked. One single bomb on a highway or railway can completely decimate any one of our province's ability to move people or goods and perform services. Our border is too long and wild to be defendable. And they could probably take out our entire military logistics in a single night of bombings. All of this isn't even to mention that if they wanted to go all out insane they could make nuclear threats if the Canadian government doesn’t capitulate. I'm not saying we couldn't resist, it's just fucking hideous to think about.
-
Oh, that's interesting.
-
He never actually meant it. Why does nobody get it? It's a distraction. Stop fuelling it. This headline is exactly what Trump wants.
