I'm a good ol' boy, Canada is simply the confederacy which won the war and lived to tell the tale. I'm a Nova Scotia good ol' boy, dem boys in Dixie is my cousins. They got their Marse Robert and Tom Jackson, we got our Brock and Tecumseh. They lost at the Little Round Top, we won at the Heights of Queenston. They were the Kings of Virginia, we are the Hanoverians in Huronia. They fly the colors of the Army of Northern Virginia, I fly the Red Ensign amongst the maples of Upper Canada. They whistle Dixie's Land, I groove to The Maple Leaf Forever. Not that I don't whistle Dixie too, same as Abraham Lincoln, its one of my favorite tunes. And I have an AONV battle flag, presented to me as a gift by an 82nd Airborne Division good ol' boy paratrooper. The Liberal Party of Canada? That's dem Yankees, they work for the Yankees, they are one and the same.

He can't keep getting away with it! Womp-Womp.

If Marleau & Co are going anywhere, they are only going back to their mansion in NoCal. Thing is, by getting Muzzin to replace Gardiner at Gardiner's $4 million cap hit, that takes a lot of pressure off, they can't afford to resign Gardiner, Muzzin just took his cap slot for next year, and after next year they have to resign Andersen and there is the expansion draft, so they'll have to reset anyways. This is not their only window, this is just the first window, but it's basically this year and next, and then they will have to bring up more kids, namely Sandin and Liljegren.

Marleau would only go back to San Jose, he's not going anywhere else, he might go back the San Jose tho, but would be in offseason methinks.

I don't know what Dubstep did to hypnotize him, but everybody been saying the Leafs gonna have to move Liljegren to get the D, and I had resigned myself to that eventuality. I figured Muzzin was in play, but I was expecting the Leafs to be over a barrel, yet somehow Dubstep done sidestepped the overpay, grabbed the fleece, and got the hell out of dodge before Blake came to his senses.

Including Allende, who thought Pinochet was his ally and protector. lol. Out the helicopter, commies.

Apparently Carolina would not part with a Dman without getting a roster player back, reportedly Kapanen, Dubstep wasn't giving Kappy up so gave up on the RHD and went for Muzzin. But I actually think Muzzin is better than Pesce and at least as good as Slavin, he's like a Slavin, except Rob Blake took a bucket o' pucks for Muzzin when the Canes prolly wanted Nylander for Slavin. Muzzin at $4 million is actually outplaying Doughty at $11 million, Muzzin has been the Kings best D this year, he's the only one having a good year.

F**kin France. And their F**kin commies. This is why we can't have nice things.

Yeah, perfect fit, Drew Doughty's d partner to play with Mo. All purpose top pairing possession D-man with size. Bomb of a point shot which the Leafs didn't have. Physical presence who takes the body with aplomb, which the Leafs also didn't have. Two time Stanley Cup champ, in his prime. At an affordable cap hit with term. Practically a Unicorn and yet Dubeezus managed to pry one. Without giving anyone up off the roster. Without giving up an A prospect. Replacing UFA Gardiner at the same time. Blam.

Tru, operationally it would be like Canada now beating the Americans in a war, with the help of Russia. But that was not actually the species altering aspect. The species altering event was a revolution in the name of property rights for their own sake. Those property rights are the source of the American Hegenomy and all of its other species altering events, thermonuclear world peace, interplanetary exploration, global information age, etc

Damn fine, and Muzzin's cap hit for the rest of this season is only $1.483 million, so they still have just over $4 million in cap room left this year for rentals/

Most admiral quality being the Declaration of Independence. The associated constitution is the best in play right now, but the Declaration of Independence, otherwise known as The Shot Heard Round The World, was the species altering event. When it went on to force Cornwallis to capitulate at Yorktown, the American revolutionaries called it; The Miracle. So they were aware at the time.

The N-bomb is still a nuke, nobody ever said it wasn't going to do damage, the point is to do it with minimal fallout. ERW is 10% yield of a bomb with reflecting tamper, so a 1 megaton yield worth of fissionable would produce equivalent to 100 Kt, but ERW, with tritium boosting, needs less plutonium. ERW is 80% radiation by yield, which means the heat blast effect is only 20%, so equivalent to 20 kiloton blast/heat. 20Kt is not a big blast in a theater to strategic context, that's not going to generate a large plume of fallout, particularly when detonated from above, particularly with no U-238 casing Bear in mind the tactical N-bomb was intended to spare civilians, but I'm not intending that, just tamping down all the radioactive plumes to manageable rather than end of civilization or at the very least end of it in the northern hemisphere. Like, Redwing Navajo is 95% fusion, but at 5 megatons that's a big mushroom cloud for the remaining 5% fission. High yield ERW would be like 80% fusion, but then only a 20 kiloton mushroom cloud, which is minimal plume for that fission, in the grand scheme of things. In essence, H-bomb casualties with A-bomb blast radius and as such containable fallout downrange, fallout like in Las Vegas rather than on Eniwetok. In terms of tactical N-bombs, with the PGM capability now, you could actually take targets down with salvos of neutron bombs. The idea of popping hundreds of neutron bombs horrified the West Germans of course, but for civilization writ large, it's better than hundreds of hydrogen bombs. The high yield ERW is the countervalue deterrent, the tactical ERW is for counterforce, but that could include a cluster of N-bombs on a regime target, decapitation. In the end, barring exchange on the Subcontinent, only the Northern Hemisphere is really at civilizational level risk. As I say, based on the prevailing winds, Ciudad del Este on the banks of the Paranha in Paraguay; is the safest place on earth, and the internet is nuke proof, by design, so things will carry on in the Southern Hemisphere, so long as the fallout is contained to Chernobyl levels rather than Comac McCarthy's The Road. Cohen was right, he was just a little utopian about what could be saved, ERW is indeed the humane option, but for the purposes of preserving civilization, the hapless souls in the neutron flash will of course be cooked in their own juices to death.

Muzzin's got two years left at $4 million, with Andersen needing a new contract after that, it pretty much covers the immediate window, plus the loss of J-Gards in the off season. I had high hopes for Grundstrom to be an NHL player, but don't project him to be a star, he's also taken a step back this year with the Marlies. Durzi wasn't a pick I was a big fan of, so he's expendable. Late first rounder; basically just a glorified second rounder. So, I'd say Dubeezus strikes again, not sitting on his hands in the window, going for it now, which is all one can ask.

Leafs acquire Jake Muzzin for prospects Grundstrom, Durzi, plus a first. Still processing the deal, but on the surface it's a top four D at a reasonable cap hit for nothing off the current roster and no lottery picks, so mission accomplished.

Canada is simply a Domestic Self Governing Federation of the British Empire, you have fabricated "Canada" to be something which is not, Canada does not actually meet the definition of a Westphalian Nation State, and is also a total failure as a Confederation, as it has not fulfilled one stated purpose of, in fact the opposite is the case by every term, to include Confederation itself, as Quebec has de facto already left and is just taking bribes from Ottawa right now in return for not formally announcing independence. Australia is not a failed state, but Australia is a Commonwealth not a Confederation, there's no such thing as Australian Quebec.

Bear in mind, my wife is not a housewife, she's an independent woman, independently wealthy too, she don't work for me, she's an executive who works for a multinational corporation, riding around in limousines and the G5 with the CEO, so she can take care of herself, I ain't the boss of her.

Well I told her not to mope around after I'm gone, once she walks me to the grave, she's released from her vows, "til death do us part"

I am long on America, but indeed, I am only here for a good time not for a long time, so I will not likely live to cash out fully, but whatever, my wife will inherit my estate.

I simply walk tall, and trust in the Lord, when someone actually impedes me somehow, I will commence an escalation of force operation at that juncture, otherwise, I just live and let live.

The future is a sad sack nanny socialist fake jobs welfare gulag run by Cultural Marxist dingbats? I doubt that. But as Canada goes down the tubes, I can take my capital to Nevada or wherever.

The Chinese are not bothering me, nor do I defend and uphold Canada anymore, it's just my tethered tax jurisdiction, I have fulfilled the terms of the contract of unlimited liability in service of the Crown of Canada, I don't even invest in Canada, if the Chinese are dumb enough to sink money into Canada, more power to them, I don't have Canada as a buy, I have Canada as a sell.

Also bear in mind, while Canadian Confederation (Canada) may not back me up by much force, the House of Windsor still does, and by the aforementioned Treaty of Paris 1763, Elizabeth Windsor is the legal title holder of all the territory of British North America, there are no property rights which supersede the God of the Hebrews and associated Dieu et mon droit, so in fact the People's Republic of China or any other, can actually do nothing more than Free Hold in right of Liz Windsor, the moment they are invoked as a national security threat, the Free Hold can be revoked on the spot, so in effect, nothing is actually ever sold to the Chinese here, all they can do is lease it.

It's a free market, they can take their profits at Manhattan in dollars converted to gold as necessary, they do not impede me from doing so in anyway, so I'm not seeing the problem.

Morality is indeed subjective, but even reduced to mere Homo Sapiens Sapiens territorial apex predator, I still defend and uphold my subjective reality by force, in self defence, individually at the threshold of my property, collectively at the threshold of the North Atlantic Security Zone.
