That's when we got bit the second time. See Americans are very simple. We do what we do so we can be... left alone. We got bit twice when we left the world to its own devices with our heads buried in the sand. 

In regards to China, we know that they know they are going away, invading Taiwan so the CCP can write a narrative about national dissolution is something we figure they might try... if we didn't took steps to stop them. 

............oh, I see, akin to the cat that likes to stroked but not touched? 😄

U cannot be top dog  (cat) if u don't engage with the World .......... and many do want u to be left alone, isolated? 

It is their fervent wish.

Not exactly they are the most reliant on the US navy patrolling the ocean and keep the maritime trade routes open. China benefitted the most in the last 40 years because of our protection and global engagement. They know that too by the way.

That's what people don't understand about America and Americans. We aren't top dog because of choice, we are the undisputed super power because of Geography. We're a continental sized Island. The only Country in history that has ever had the ability to invade two continent simultaneously and win. That was no accident.

.............the state of the UNITED STATES today is a direct and ongoing result of the alliances it  built, post WWII.

 freedom of the seas. ............... was a designed  strategy, self serving of course, but brilliant. 

However, it relied (relies) on Allies...........  lest the  entire USN becomes engaged in the Strait of Hormuz!😄

Truth is, that was because of the Soviet threat. Now that there is no longer a Soviet level threat we don't really feel the need to be so courteous with our deadbeats er allies as you call them. Ofcourse technology forces us into an everchanging geopolitical land scape.

We will still remain engaged with the world to stop nuclear proliferation if nothing else. But it won't take the same "freetrade" flavor you've all been used to though.

The TRUST IS gone - the World is leaving the US behind. 

What made the US the great Nation it once was? 

The United States was the perfect example of something created that is " greater than the sum of all the parts (allies) that made it a great nation".

The United States was the leader of the free world - as Reagan said, 'that shining  city on the hill'. 

Now don't get me wrong  - people will still want to immigrate to the US - heavily vetted of course - but the shine is gone. 

Trust is  gone. 

More the pity.

Still is, and as a fact it will be the last refuge as well. We see clouds forming on the horizon and nothing good across our two ocean moats. War, famine and pestilence.

It’s the other way around, more like the US is disinterested in playing world police if there isn’t a threat to justify it. The consequences are adverse for those country reliant on US protection and engagement I agree.

I really do hope u are correct and that the 'great experiment' endures. 

............ I can't get over the feeling tho that something, 'is rotten in the state of Denmark' - so to speak! 😁

Yes apparently this is preferable than cutting a deal with the Americans. No worries though, as the 24th province of China, you’ll be able to afford the finest random roadkill and trash veggies, prepared in the best oil pulled from the broadest sewers in Beijing! 

And wash it all down with that Yank swill made from turnips cucumbers radishs or the hog feed . . . corn.  Feed that corn to the hogs and you'll be able to grow your own 'Canadian bacon' . . . oink!  oink!   😊

The difference is that America is next door which makes its threats far more serious.

What threat? Turning you all into Americans? That’s what you’re afraid of? The Canadian kryptonite? Admitting that you’re Americans? Tell you what, we’ll sweeten the deal, admit that you’re American formally and you get to have unlimited access to our market and vote in our elections increased your currency value to world reserve status overnight and guaranteed protection from the greatest fighting force in the history of mankind. Yeah thought so.

Just gota figure out what to do with the deadbeats, can’t leave them mucking about on their own for too long though. They’ll nuke each other if left to their own devices. The American strongman is a global necessity and that’s just needs to be accepted by everyone.

Trump looked across his desk and say that Canada was their best customer. So he punched us in the face. Reminding me of the fact the man bankrupts Cansino's.

Americans truly are idi@ts.

We are Canadian and we want to stay that way, a simple fact you and your MAGA friends in Canada can’t get their heads around. BTW I’d be paying attention to the status of your ‘world reserve’ currency if I were you. 

[WestCanMan]

Interesting info on FB today about the Gray's Bay mine up in Nunavut. 

The claim is that the mine had been inaccessible ever since it was discovered 60+ years ago, and then it was bought by a company that's owned by the Chinese gov't about 15 years ago, and it's getting an access road built to it by Carney and the gang now. 

Apparently there's more in that region than just the Chinese mine, but I don't know how much more. 

I will wait to learn more about this before I get too excited. I'm too tired today to be bothered.

Less and less people feel like Canadian sovereignty is worth maintaining every day. 

Almost half of Quebecers want to leave the country and a sizeable chunk of people in Alberta and Saskatchewan feel the same way.

That ended under Biden, dungus. Saudi Arabia was trading using other dollars in 2023. 

Left4rds pretended that it wasn't a big deal back then, but I guess that it's suddenly a big deal now, right?

We need a serious discussion on what absorbing Canada would look like. For America, we would be paying for Canada’s retirement, political math not withstanding. Is that something America wants to pay for, to have the North American continent under one flag. Those discussions have not yet entered public consciousness. That said, it wouldn’t be a cultural problem since you guys are Americans culturally whether you admit to it or not.

If you consider ~90% of Canadian's less and less, sure...  It's the non-stop crying and complainers like you that feel that way.  Fortunately, you're in a small percentage.

I don't see joining the USA as a positive.

Would you wanna suddenly be a part of the ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN clown-show?

Would you wanna be represented by Danielle Smith, or Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton or Kamala Harris, etc?

Would you be jumping up and down to join a gov't with Hakeem Jeffries in it? The squad? Schumer and Pelosi? 

 

Alberta needs to jump out of the frying pan for sure. Into the fire? Not so much.

So what's stopping you from packing your bags and getting out of dodge?  You bîtch about it all day every day so why don't you do yourself a favour and leave. Your red hat will play better in rural America than it does here.

Lots of them are.  There are lots of Canadian to match them.  The one thing that the MAGA trogs have in common with our Freedom Convoy dumdums is their poor levels of education.

What's stopping you from just accepting that some people would like to stay where they are, and just no longer be associated with Canada?

What do you mean 'no longer be associated with Canada'.  Does that mean you won't use your passport again, stop paying income tax and stop receiving CPP/OAS?

That would be a small price to pay for separation. Are you joking? 

And the pension money would just get sorted out. It's an accounting issue, which doesn't compare to a "living under the thumb of vax-Nazis and cultists" issue.
