      He’s a fucking super mega idiot.

      Even your average idiot knows this is about securing a source of heavy crude oil - something the US is geared to refine but doesn’t have.

        Which is fantastic news for Canada’s oil industry…

        Not that I want us expanding that sector anyway. More motivation to divest I guess.

        Well we voted in a banker instead of this guy. PP would be a disaster instead of the mistake we currently have. I’m definitely volunteering for the NDP next election.

    Why use an Israeli news outlet as a source for a discussion about the US and Canada. Kind of bizarre…

    if you want to compare yourself to a 2bit clown like manduro or Venezuela i guess you could

    in reality if america invaded canada most of the west would declare war on america immediately and we’d have troops in your country

    america might even break out in civil war

        The US hasn’t declared a war since WWII and the American people have been perfectly happy to wolf down cheeseburgers and watch their country commit one atrocity after the other for the last 75 years.

        They’re going to try and hold the country and steal the oil. It’s a big country and there aren’t enough military smarts in the Trump admin to fill a teaspoon. This is going to turn into a shit show.

        Invading a city is one thing. Holding a country is another.
