Hey, as the say "my way or the highway" and Trumps highway is waaay bigger than ours. My hope is that PP won't say anything to pi$$ him off and end up being disliked like Trudeau is all these years. Trudeau tried to pick a fight with Trump years ago and it came back to bite him in the ass and Trump now has all the power. PP has to play nice.

myata Posted February 4 Report Posted February 4 (edited) What he wanted to achieve is pretty clear and typical of clueless bullies: to make an example of presumably, weaker and more dependent members of the community so that the rest would fall in line whenever he points his fat finger to.

Brian Mulroney's Neoliberal Globalist Free Trade ? Canada being totally dependant upon and at the mercy of the Americans ? all Canadian institutions dissolving themselves into irrelevance ? the majority of Canadians actually embracing defunding the CBC ? the Crown Corporations privatized for all intents and purposes ? Public healthcare spiralling into collapse ? Public universities become totally dependant upon foreign students to prop them up ? Canada's once civil society overrun by violent chaos & disorder in the streets ? almost half of Canadians under forty embracing becoming the 51st State ? methinks he would invoke the War Measures Act, same as Trump is doing Edited February 4 by Dougie93 Quote

I think securing our border can only help us on both side with stuff coming in and out. There's little/nothing to secure. The amount of fentanyl that's been seized crossing the Canada/US border over the last couple of years could fit in the backseat of my car. Trump is bogeymanning a non-issue.

Justin’s legacy is secure with real Canadians and MAGAcanada look like traitors. Win win win win win. 😂 I prefer to judge a politician by their accomplishments and not by their platitudes. I couldn't care less if one was a mean, nasty, bastard like Trump... it's their accomplishments that makes the politician stand out. Quote

suds Posted February 4 Report Posted February 4 7 hours ago, I am Groot said: Guy, the 40 odd pounds of fentanyl they've seized at their northern border is chump change compared to the twenty-one thousand pounds they've seized at their south. Then there's the people. A few thousand to the north, hundreds of thousands to the south. Now let's look at it from the other direction. If we're at fault and need to improve then what about the Americans? Thousands and thousands of kg of narcotics are seized by CBSA at the border last year headed into Canada from the US. Not to mention thousands of firearms. And as you know, migrants travel to the US just to come to our border and cross it. Tens of thousands did that all through Trump's first term and he couldn't have cared less. Biden signed the safe 3rd country agreement but I have a feeling the moment someone tells Trump about it he'll cancel it. Why isn't the US doing better at stopping these drugs, guns and people from entering Canada? By his own reckoning, it's HIS responsibility. I believe the reasoning is that once the southern border is sealed off the cartels will need new channels to funnel the fentanyl into the U.S. The Canada/U.S. border is the next logical choice since the cartels are already operating in Canada producing the stuff for export. And why should Trump have stopped the migrant flow from coming into Canada when Trudeau invited them in? Quote

I got an old army buddy who is OPP Asian Crimes Unit now he says the Chinese are the biggest mafia in Canada by far, nobody else even comes close the Mexican drug cartels are only their proxies, subcontractors Canada is more of a hub for organized crime than Mexico is it's just organized crime at the state run geopolitical level, backed up by the Chinese Communist Party so far above the streets that it is invisible Chinese gangsters don't sell on the street, they buy politicians in Ottawa Edited February 4 by Dougie93 1 Quote

herbie Posted February 4 Report Posted February 4 Oh FFS make uo more lies for that senile fart in the White House to spout. Let's just let the absolute fools who think he won sick shit. Mexico agreed to send 10,000 troops to the border back in 2021 but restating that is a HUGE win. Canada started upping border security months ago but that can be a HUIGE BEUTIFUL WIN for the demented old fool. No country on Earth still thinks the USA is trustworthy to stand up to any of it's commitments. In a repeat performance, Trump shits himself and his country on the world stage, He repeats his 1st state at every opportunity and some people still think that's a mere 'joke'. Especially ones to ignorant to know it would be thirteen states, none of which would be MAGAs. Bragging how we would have US 'protection' when most of us are more worried about protection from the USA, performs the American mantra of squawking about lower taxes when we're more interested in more income, not the taxes on it.

Trumps says jump and Justin says how high LOL Doesn't matter, Canadians are in the mood for a fight. If they have to. Trump thinks everything is transactional. Sovereignty is emotional.
