If true, did Trudeau think playing to trumps sympathies would work?
Ew just give us your west coast and you can have Alberta and maybe Ontario
Something tells me the last thing diehard MAGAs want is another California.
Or, dissolve the United States and create an EU like union of North American nation states in its place.
I give it a year before red states beg to be part of a blue country. Most of them can't support themselves without money from other states.
Seems like giving the non shit-hole states to Canada would make everyone happier.
Let's call it "Greater America"
Greater Canada
Oh god, please dont give Danielle Smith any ideas
They could take each province and make them states. Don't think that will work out for Republicans
That mexico threat doesn’t mean a war, but if you threaten another nato country, you’re gonna have your ass handed to you.
If the USA invaded Canada, Canada would not be able to defend itself. Thankfully that idea has been unthinkable for a long time, but as the USA goes fascist, climate change kicks in and the water starts to run out, I could see that changing one day.
If the US attempted to invade another NATO country, the weight of NATO would come down. The US is not in a position to take over allied countries.
Mexico, on the other hand, would be like Russia invading Ukraine.
None of this is good for the people.
All that snow and ice up there will melt, Canada will have plenty of water to hold over the US' head.
That'll be a great first line for the history book chapter "Beginning of the Water Wars"
That's what I mean: the USA will be coming for Canada's water.
What about Greenland? Don't let that dream die, Donny!
