It's brilliant. Nothing but the best from a stable genius and leader of the free world.

Yeah yeah, you do realize we're all part of the Anglo western culture right? We really do see things the same way. I still can't differentiate small town alberta from pick a spot Montana. And before you say Windsor is that different from Detroit, Detroit in it's prime was the same as Windsor. The American view is not that vastly different from the Brits and Canada.

It’s our coup de grâce for burning down the Whitehouse. The Canadian original sin. Double or nothing Canucks.

Nah, the greatest presidential president America has to offer the world and Canada.

Because it'll just devolve into an interstellar arms race and war over celestial body.

No that's a missread. accept this tariff or become 51st. NO killing of Canadians required. We're Americans after all, not Canadian...

Why though? You obviously wiped out the natives with most of the 18 and 19th century doing genocide.

You’re overreacting, America only voted to internationally bully Canada. Every other countries seem to be getting a trade deal and tariff reduction, even china.

Canada insist on learning things the hard way. You should pay homage to the emperor for trade negotiations to continue.

What culture!?? There's no such thing as a non-American. Canadian culture is a mental illness wrapped in bigoted xenophobe tendancy. You're North American and by virtue American, we live on the same continent. Canada was a British ploy to slow American expansionism on the continent. Just accept that Canada will eventually get absorbed. You're the one dragging this out and forcing all these pleasentries upon yourselves.

I’m in favor of Trump’s troll Canada first policy and let Canada hang. When you Canucks are serious about accepting a trade deal we’ll send you our terms. Look at South Korea and Japan, they saw the writing on the wall and capitulated to Trump. Prideful Canucks haven’t learned that yet. Canada hasn’t realized that America really does have ALL the leverage. And to be honest, I’m much more inclined to push for partial annexation of Canada, specifically just Alberta and Saskatchewan. The parts that America actually wants. The rest of the provinces are dominoes ready to fall. So for you prideful Canucks who can’t read between the lines, your best bet of maintaining sovereignty is to just accept a humiliating trade deal. America really can wait you out.

Michael is baiting you.

@blackbird, defend your immigrants.

Nice race bait OP

A fear that is entirely one sided I assure you. It actually doesn’t make sense to annex Canada to be frank. The Math is really bad from a political and financial sense even if Canadians were willing to be 51st. Your population is retiring and will need massive amounts of government money to pay for your social programs. But it has been in the US strategic interest for 200 years to absorb all the people living on this North American continent under one flag. That is the only reason America would be willing to bail out Canada. Food for thought @Zeitgeist.

Im convinced no Canuck under 40 goes on this forum.

I actually think Canada needs to retool. America is moving away from mineral extraction and processing so the demand is there. This is where Canada could shine. Your excess hydro power can be used to process raw material that you mine from the North. We just don't need more Canadian automotive manufacturing that could be done by robots. Neither do we need your engineering talent. That's all jobs America can and should take for ourselves. The parts not able to be done by robots should be shipped to Mexico where labor is much cheaper and just as good as Canadian or American labor.

It's a bit more complicated but essentially the labour intensive part of manufacturing will be going to Mexico.

Welcome back, I thought you died. It wouldn’t be advantageous for America to annex most of Canada. The only part worth annexing is Alberta and Saskatchewan.

This sentiment wouldn’t be so tone deaf were it not for Canada’s own protectionist stance, against their own provinces!

Sow the wind, now reap the whirlwind. @blackbird

He’s stalling for time. He wants more American investment before he allows more Canadian investment in the wrong sector. Trump doesn’t need more Canadian auto parts, he wants raw or processed minerals. Canada is an economic competitor to the United States in many respects.

Mhmmm, instead of importing more foreigners that’ll cause you more heart burn, why don’t you just give up and become a State? Literally your problems will disappear overnight. As usual, Orange man was right.

This is the future for most places in the world, too large of an infrastructure to maintain and not enough butts to pay for it. This is the direct result of not having enough children.
