I'll throw myself off of a bridge.
But couldn't y'all set a better example by throwing anyone involved with private insurance off that bridge?

Right? Like "Bro they've got maple syrup, healthcare, and poutine. If you think I'm pointing a rifle at them instead of marching up there with a gift basket and immigration papers, you gotta be out of your mind!" Lol

There wouldn't really be any formal arrangement, because I imagine the Canadian government would fall within days. Ottawa is only a 2 hour drive from the US border, most of the Canadian population lives right next to the border. But, you could easily see various countries covertly supplying resistance cells with weapons. Most of Western Europe wouldn't do it openly because they're too vulnerable to the US. But, maybe covertly. China and Russia would definitely try to help Canadian resistance, just to destabilize the US.

and you'd have to admit, Canadians would blend in well with the US population.
I'm already laughing at the propaganda posters I'm imagining:
"Did YOUR neighbor just say 'oot', 'sorry', or 'zed'? REPORT THEM TO YOUR NEAREST PATRIOTISM ASSURANCE OFFICER TODAY."

Doesn't the Tariffs Basically invalidate make the old trade agreements, making them worthless so now the other countries can do whatever they want?

And Jagmeet Singh has proven to be pretty useless.
Other than getting us pharmacare and dental added to our health care, sure.

Genuine curiosity, why do you call yourself an “expat” instead of “immigrant”? Is there a difference?

God I hate trade wars, but good on Canada for not rolling over for Trump.

The population of the US has no appetite for invading Canada, many of us have close friends and family there, we consider Canada a friend and ally and Trumps hissy fit doesn't change that.
If the US invades Canada there will be a lot of Americans aiding resistance.

It's the (stupid) legal term of an American who has moved overseas. Even my tax returns are done through "expat services".

I wish I could be called an expat instead of an immigrant, sounds less of a stigma, lucky you. Best of luck out there!

Unfortunately you have enough people who just believe whatever their guy says. I'd think it would be like a Russia-Ukraine type thing, in the sense that a lot of friends and family are on both sides of the border, but Russia still found (and admittedly forced) enough people who didn't care.

Pharmacare? Has it arrived? Or is it something they're still working on? As for dental added to healthcare, are you sure? Or was it just added for people with low-income?

That's on the Liberals, the NDP forced them into action.
This is like the fifth time the NDP has managed to change all our lives for the better while not even the official opposition, but they get called 'useless' either way.

This isn't a bully, our organizations and institutions are under attack from an unelected billionaire who bought the president while he was still a candidate. This is a coup by neo Nazis. We are fucked and they will start a war with you.

No, just the Iraq war was like that. And even then Saddam Hussein was actually an evil motherfucker and the US tried to claim it was a war about liberation. But we know oil was a significant consideration there.
Afghanistan was about finding the terrorist that did 9/11. I'm Canadian so I have family that went over there and came back with PTSD. We were only over there because the US was our ally. Only war Canada has ever lost in it's history and it was because the US fucked it all up by going on a side quest to Iraq.

I would think so but don't really know from a legal standpoint
What's clear now is that a contract with the USA is not worth an "Elon's promise" so any current agreement is basically null and void
