Agreed. It will take a lot of taxes on the wealthy to get there, but I am on your side.

You are in favour of unilateral military strikes on NATO allies if you think Canada should stay an ally of USA. It’s obvious where we are leaning. The USA simply cannot be trusted. Europe are better allies.

Nothing! I already said there’s nothing we or Europe could do to prevent it. So, if this happens, or if the threats continue, why would Canada continue to buy American jets?

I reported this comment for encouraging killing people. Last time that happened on this forum, a member was permanently banned for cheering the death of that rightwing guy.

You didn’t answer the question. If the USA invades another NATO country, why would Canada ever buy American jets? You’re downplaying the potential invasion of an ally. Why? Do you believe USA has a right to invade another NATO ally with impugnity? Should Canada join their cause?

Did you just move the goalposts to avoid the question? Is “invading and occupying” a better description for you? Why would the USA need to invade and occupy Greenland in order to defend it from the Russians?

So your reasoning is that if they don’t take it then Russia will. Russia who can’t even win a war in Ukraine. Assuming you’re correct, why can’t the USA defend Greenland without stealing it, or invading it? Don’t they have a military base there already?

The question was can they? I thought that was a given. I have been under the impression that the point of debate has always been “should they”.

Especially if they decide to let Russia in as an ally. Maybe purchase a nuclear deterrent.

As soon as Trump is gone, Greenland will kick the American military out of the country. The base will be operated by other NATO nations.

The fact it’s conspiracy theory nonsense with no evidence is why I don’t believe it.

I think it automatically collapses and there’s a NATO without the USA. Once that happens, why would we ever buy American jets?

Do you think a NATO ally invading another NATO ally is a big enough crisis for us to grow up? Why would we buy American fighter jets if they’re willing to attack Greenland? Do you think we still should? Isn’t the Gripen the obvious choice now that the USA is willing to attack a fellow NATO country?

Who in their right mind thinks the USA has a right to Greenland? It would be funny if it wasn’t so stupid and serious.

Show some evidence. Where? How often? Otherwise it’s just you saying so. I don’t believe you as you’re a conspiracy nutbar.

Is Poilievre in favour of the USA attacking Greenland? Seems like he is just acting like a Trump sycophant. Canadians will not be impressed.

Show some evidence for this claim.

Was Germany invaded for what happened within its borders before he invaded other countries, or after he already started a war of aggression against surrounding countries?

No one said anything about a veto. But, realistically no one is going to build a pipeline through areas that don’t want it. The Libs will see that this will gain them zero seats in Alberta and cost them 3 seats in BC. That math alone will be enough to, at the very least, put the pipeline in a less politically sensitive area.

Why did Canadian energy stocks take a sharp drop today? https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/bakx-wti-venezuela-tsx-9.7033902 It’s probably a bit of a knee jerk reaction in the market, but it’s not for no reason….

I’m predicting a PP landslide of support at his convention but an ouster by his MPs in 2026 after another floor crossing that gives the Libs a majority in parliament. He will go down fighting agains his own MPs ala Trudeau PP will be nothing but a distant memory come 2027.

Completely agree. The other part that doesn’t pass the smell-test is blaming a single political party for this. The posters here are just partisan hacks.

I don’t think this is a realistic assessment.

Trump recently pardoned a guy who was found guilty for the same thing Maduro is going to be charged with. 🤪 Last month, Trump freed former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez, who had been convicted in the U.S. of helping smuggle more than 400 tons of cocaine into the U.S. https://www.npr.org/2026/01/03/nx-s1-5665695/maduro-trump-drug-dealer-pardons

I never meant 100%. Obviously. But there is a very strong contingent of the public that rallies around war. If regime change was the stated goal, do you think less Americans would have supported it? I don’t. Well yeah. So?
