NAME REMOVED

True...

Just seeing if you are OK. If my team got curb stomped like the Eagles are doing to the Chiefs, I would be very dejected.

Plot twist: AG is a DEI hire. Army Guy suffers from PTSD, so technically if a company were to hire him, he would be a DEI hire.

I've never seen anything like this, since Kim Campbell and the PC Party imploded in 1993.

Yes, in case you did not bother reading the topic title, I asked why this is even a serious political issue? Have you even met a transgender person? They don't bother me. I worry about things like the economy, health care, and taxes when I vote. I could not care less about Transgenders. Why do you care?

It's Super Bowl time!!!! @gatomontes99 is a huge Chiefs fan. Unsure if there are any Eagles fans in the house. My prediction? 31-24 Chiefs.

LOL @ ICP. Yes, they remind me of Juggalos. I would prefer to hang with juggalos, since they don't pretend not to be white trash.

You need to learn reading comprehension skills. Or perhaps you are in the closet. Your fascination with Transgenders is amazing. I bet that if I inspected your computer, it would be full of shemale porn.

You remind me of the one oddball veteran, who is usually found one any given street corner, or homeless shelter, who is convinced that he is "owed" a great life, and brags about carrying an M-16, while others do all they can to avoid him. Most Canadian veterans I respect, but then again, they aren't disgruntled fools, who never advanced much during their service.

I honestly think the Liberals will win again. Pierre Poilievre and the Conservatives are brain dead, mimicking Trump-like populism, and copying slogans from MAGA (Canada First, etc). Trump has been making threats about annexing Canada, and he is universally despised to the point people boo the American anthem. All Carney and the Liberals have to do, is run on an anti-Trump campaign, and they will probably win.

It not an important election issue. At the end of the day, it does not concern most Canadians. You have an unhealthy obsession with transgender people.

You may want to Google the Vietnam War, or the 2003 Iraq War. There are other instances of US intervention, under false pretences. This is nothing new.

For once, we agree.

...and?

If your Orange God instructed you to jam a carrot up your ass, in order not to be woke, would you?

You are, by far, the biggest coward and traitor that the Canadian military has ever come across. I would love to talk with people in your regiment, to see just how much of a clown you were. I feel sorry for them. I am willing to bet money that when they hold any type of veterans event, the most stressful part of it, is to decide if they should invite you, or "forget" your address, so that nobody has to watch you make a fool out of himself, while hitting on the cadets.

I hope he gives a speech when accepting the trophy for this great honor..lol.

Mexico pushed back against Trump, and got concessions in regards to gun smuggling across the border from the US. It turns out thousands of firearms that were from the US Army have been used by cartels.

I've never believed otherwise. You may be thinking of someone else.

Don't worry, I will not copy your posts. Trump wants us to be a colony like Puerto Rico. There is no way he gives Canada electrical votes, considering he knows we will vote Democratic. Trump is the one threatening us with annexation. Nothing to do with Trudeau. It's amazing after all these years, you are still brainwashed by alt-right media. Once again, blaming Trudeau for Trump's threats. Are you even a real Canadian?

lol. Oh WCM. You rascal.

Can you take a photo of your military uniform, and upload it to the forum?

AG, you have failed your mission. I'm afraid, I will have to demote you to KP duty.

"When US president-oligarch Trump says he's going to invade or annex Canada, he is not joking, teasing, or trolling. He is making a threat. Take him seriously. The sooner Canadians, Mexicans, and allies come to an understanding that the United States, under Trump could flip from ally to enemy, the sooner they can prepare, and protect their sovereignty and democracy. The United States does not have a monopoly on democracy, freedom, America, or the ability to fight for these ideals. The 18th-century French writer Voltaire famously said that no adversary would want a “few acres of snow” in Canada. But Canada is more than a few acres of snow. There are population centres, citizens, infrastructure, and resources, including the water and oil Trump is eyeing. And amongst all this some strategic targets an aggressor might covet. Today Canada faces many threats from different fronts, including Russia, China, India, and now under Trump the United States. Each one of these countries is waging war against Canada through disinformation, bot armies, and coercion. Openly trying to dismantle the nation and the principles that glue it together. So far, Canadian politicians and state media have reacted in a manner unbefitting to a nation facing invasion and subjugation from a much larger and more powerful adversary. The current response by Canada's state media has been to minimize the threat or conduct polls normalizing the idea of annexation and invasion, instilling the delusion that these acts of war could be done peacefully. Other Canadian delusions include articles and commentary playing down the threat and recommending Canadians ignore Trump as if collectively wishing the danger to go away. Such actions only benefit the enemy which relies on silent consent and inaction to accomplish his goals of territorial expansion. Even more disconcerting, is the reaction by the so-called "Team Canada" government managed under Justin Trudeau which has decided that the appropriate response to Trump's threats is to propose new unnecessary border project serving as a token of appeasement, redirecting $1.6 billion of Canadian tax payer's money, to Trump and his cabal of oligarchs. These projects proposed by Trudeau will not only fail as appeasement they will be capitulation, as they propose the notion of joint policing to tackle nearly non-existent issues claimed by enemy disinformation networks and collaborators. This will grant the US further control over Canada, no different than a colonizing force. This is often seen as the first step towards annexation. To make matters worse, many disgruntled Canadians seem unable to distinguish real information from enemy propaganda and are floating the idea that they'd be better off being annexed or invaded, many promising to welcome the invaders with open arms. Such sentiments are being met with levity rather than the severity deserved by open treason. When Russian president-oligarch Vladimir Putin was threatening to invade and annex Ukraine few in the government and media took him seriously. Many pretended he was 'joking' and up until the point that Russian troops took Crimea in 2014, they ridiculed the notion of their neighbour invading and annexing them as ridiculous and alarmist. Before Russia's invasion, many Ukrainian politicians, personalities, and media also tried to appease Putin and proposed joint projects, preached 'brotherly' unity, pretended that 'no way Russia would harm its economy like that', and laughed at the notion of an invasion. World governments and media further reinforced these ideas providing a false sense of security. Before the invasion, Russia created a separatist idea in Ukraine. Angry at amplified or invented problems, disgruntled Ukrainians upset about the economy, culture wars, and whatever flavour of the month grievances they were fed through media became separatists welcoming the invaders with open arms. They joined Russian ranks only to discover they are less than second hand citizens used as cannon fodder by their new oligarch masters. In Ukraine, like in Canada, the invading force is not looking to make life better for its conquered people but to remove them from their lands and to claim ownership of its rich and abundant resources worth billions of dollars. The friendship between Canada and the United States is a fairly recent development shaped in the trenches of the end of World War 1 and throughout World War 2, where Canadian troops proved their tenacity and ability to wage modern warfare in their battles against Germany. Before this new friendship, the United States conspired against Canada sizing it up for its expansionist goals. Thomas Jefferson, a US founding father, remarked that the capture of Canada was “a mere matter of marching”. The Americans quickly learned that a coalition of first-nations and Canadian troops under the British flag had no desire to be part of their failed experiment. In the event of a modern invasion of Canada, the population can expect mass casualties from cuts to supplies and superior US air dominance, any Canadian troops hosted in joint Canada - US bases would be quickly captured and US troops would likely take the capital in Ottawa within hours. However... in the event of a US invasion of Canada, there will be resistance and not the type that carries a sign. Canadian troops would switch to an active insurgency and head North, where they would regroup in the wilderness and mountains of the second biggest country in the world. There they would organize an insurgency aided by allies, who will provide intelligence, and supplies, and act as unofficial intermediaries. Civilians would also join the fray to combat US troops. Many being hunters and former reservists, not only from Canada but other countries too. The insurgency in rural and urban areas will likely target the US with hit-and-run tactics, assassinations, IEDs, and suicide drones. Others would aid the insurgency through localized intelligence networks and crowdfunding. While Americans will be very divided about the prospect of a war with Canada, Canadians are raised to expected aggression from their neighbour and will be far more unified in their response. Most importantly, given the proximity to the United States, the Canadian insurgency will spill over to US streets and probably target police departments, US bases, airports, power plants, water supplies, crops, state legislatures, propagandists, collaborators, and ultimately those close to the Trump administration in both government and industry. Unfortunately given the nature of a conflict between Canada and the US, any resulting insurgency carrying out operations within the United States would not be able to distinguish between Democrats and Republicans. Meaning, that the US would likely undergo significant disruption from a collapsed economy, sabotaged logistics, and random bombings that affect everyone. The goal would be to make the United States bleed to the point that the occupation of Canada becomes far more costly than beneficial, creating a rift within the population, forcing either the removal of Trump by the US Congress/ Senate or the birth of a rebellion. Given enough of a push, the US would schism into a kinetic war between pro-democracy forces allied with Canadian insurgents and those loyal to Donald Trump and his oligarch cabal. Ultimately nobody writing history will distinguish between which side Americans voted for, they will all have to pay war reparations and carry the same guilt. The best defence is still a good offence for Canada and the United States. Anyone that wants to prevent conflict, needs to act now. You need to meet the threat with defence not conciliation. And not wait to find out what Trump is going to do when he’s already told us what he’s going to do.
