Not only does Trump want to make Canada the 51st state, it appears he talked about moving the borders and tearing up treaties

[blackbird]

Does this sound like a Nazi mind?   This will be a tough four years (or more) for Canada.

To add to our situation, we have a PM defending us in his communication with Trump who is a "globalist, borderless, post-national, liberal".  With these views how does Trudeau defend out great country against the threats from Trump?  Carney is said to be another Trudeau and on top of that, he has no political experience.  He will be taking Trudeau's place in a matter of days.

By being a "globalist, borderless, post-national, liberal" and trading with the real world rather than Trump's dreamworld.

If it bothers the dictator of Canada fraudulently elected and the pretenders to the throne that Canada becomes the 51st state of the United States, maybe they wouldn't mind if the United States becomes the eleventh province of Canada

the border treaties were negotiated between America & Britain,

yet Canada insists that it is not Britain anymore,

that seems to give Trump a case ; America never negotiated a border treaty with the Post National State

[Iceni warrior]

It's never too late for the USA to renounce the Republic, accept HM as the head of state and join the Commonwealth.

No hard feelings, you can even keep 4th July as we are a gracious and forgiving people.

It's a club.

Exclusive to former members of the Empire only.

Plus we're looking for countries prepared to put on the Commonwealth Games.

that's not even true

Rwanda, Mozambique, Gabon & Togo are all members of the Commonwealth,

despite having no historical ties to the British Empire at all

Well they tried for 250 years but couldn't keep on track of what they started. Good try, good try. End up replacing the King with Emperor Orange

Indeed, such is the appeal of the British Commonwealth that even countries with no actual affiliation with Britain apply to join it.

there's nothing to join, since the Commonwealth has no legal standing,

tho I would not be opposed to a political, economic & military alliance called the Commonwealth,

contrary to popular misconception, no such alliance exists

there isn't even a bilateral alliance between Canada & The United Kingdom,

so when Brits & Canucks invoke the Commonwealth as if it binds us,

they don't know what they are talking about,

now in the face of Donald Trump,

Canadians are asking "where are all our "Commonwealth" allies against the Americans ?!"

but guess what, Canada ; you don't have any, because Canada has deliberately broken those bonds,

as it is Canada which has insisted that it has no more connection to Great Britain.

Canada is both Anti-American & Anti-British,

so I suppose Canada will have to rely on the French feeling the need to defend Quebec

I know, Britain and France took it off the Germans in WWI and then split it into east and west with the British half eventually choosing to join the commonwealth nation of Ghana.

It's a great flag though.

Not the only one to contain an elephant either.

Another constituent part of Ghana, the Gold Coast had one too.

TBF there aren't a lot of non-white faces in uniform in that vid' and the least said about Cecil Rhodes these days, the better.

Quote

It's clear that Rhodes thought of the English as a "master race".

"I contend that we are the first race in the world, and that the more of the world we inhabit the better it is for the human race," he once said. His famous desire was to be able to draw a "red line" from Cairo to Cape Town, building a railway across the entire continent of Africa without ever leaving British territory.

Rhodes wanted to create an international movement to extend British influence.

"Why should we not form a secret society with but one object," he once said, "the furtherance of the British Empire and the bringing of the whole world under British rule, for the recovery of the United States, for making the Anglo-Saxon race but one Empire?"

I mean, he does sound a bit supremacist.

An expert on insurgency says an American military incursion into Canada would be a disaster — for the United States.

 

A military move by President Donald Trump could eventually destroy America’s worldwide power, says Dr. Aisha Ahmad, an associate professor at the University of Toronto.

 

Dr. Ahmad has studied insurgencies and visited many conflict zones for more than 20 years. She sees a pattern of resistance that repeats itself every time.

 

When a country gets invaded, a growing portion of the people fight back.

Would Canadians do that? You bet we would, Ahmad says. Canadian “niceness” is a myth that would vanish overnight in the face of invasion.

 

Canadians haven’t been forced to see America as an enemy for nearly 200 years. Many won’t want to consider it now.

 

But we’re learning to take Trump at his own words. Now he wants to tear up the 1908 treaty that fixed our border.

 

He told Prime Minister Justin Trudeau he considers the agreement invalid. He’s after land, the Great Lakes and access to rivers.

 

This is the Putin playbook. Claim that you own territory, then take it.

it's not a realistic assessment of how the civil war would play out,

it wouldn't be a clean fight, Canadians v. Americans,

since Canada is a giant Ulster,

it would be American backed Republican Fenians fighting the Loyalist Guardians of Confederation,

unlikely that there would be any American boots on the ground therein, other than the CIA

The statue of Rhodes at Oxford University was agreed by the college's governing body to be removed.

However after an inquiry the governing body decided it was a waste of money (removal and legal fees) to do it so instead they put up a board explaining the controversy and used some of the charity funds to set up DEI scholarships for Black Academic Futures and fund research endeavours with the British Zimbabwe Research Society.

Nearly 250 years after America declared independence from Great Britain, President Donald Trump suggested he was open to taking a small step back towards the warm embrace of the British monarchy after a media outlet reported that King Charles III intends to extend an offer for the United States to join the Commonwealth of Nations.

[Iceni warrior]

Seems I was not the only person who thought the US joining the commonwealth was a good idea.
