Snake Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 I know you may have been planning on his invasion of Mexico, thinking it would keep you safe. After all, he’s been nothing if not vocal about his opinion of Mexican immigrants: at the start of his campaign, he said, “They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.” Later, he claimed that a judge of Hispanic descent was not fit to deliver judgment in a court case related to Trump University: “I’m building a wall. It’s an inherent conflict of interest.” Speaker of the House Paul Ryan later called these remarks “the textbook definition of a racist comment.” Then there’s that wall. You might think that building Donald Trump’s wall will eat up all of his resources, thereby distracting him from conflict with his neighbours to the north. But no! That fallacy takes on faith that Trump and his goons will actually build said wall. They won’t. It will fail before it can fall, just like Trump University, Trump Steaks, Trump Magazine, Trump Airlines, Trump Vodka and a whole host of other enterprises consigned to the flames of failure. Constructing and securing a wall of that size and scale is a complex effort requiring the co-operation of multiple stakeholders, the discernment of a patient project manager and a sustainable vision of security that can exist beyond the years of any one president. In short, it is a project Trump is incapable of executing. Which brings us to Canada. Canada is a country worthy of invasion. Canada has abundant resources of fresh water, oil, coal and timber, all of which will be increasingly important as climate change continues its death march across history. The longer we scorch the Earth, the more valuable Canada’s resources become. If this weren’t the case, Nestlé wouldn’t have worked so hard to outbid the small town of Aberfoyle, Ont., for its own water. Nestlé’s justification for the purchase of the Middlebrook site indicated that it was a “supplemental well for future business growth.” Nestlé is thinking ahead. Is Canada? Besides, we all know how Trump feels about oil resources. “It used to be ‘to the victor belong the spoils,’ ” he said when asked about Iraq at the NBC Commander in Chief Forum, adding “Now, there was no victor there, believe me. There was no victor. But I always said: Take the oil.” How would President Trump feel, if he learned that Canada is second only to Saudi Arabia in its available oil reserves, and that its oil is less costly to produce than that of other suppliers? Would President Trump wait for a pipeline? No. Waiting for a safe and legal pipeline takes too much time. Annexations for oil resources are much simpler. Just ask Ukraine. Given Trump’s connections to Putin via ex-adviser Paul Manafort, and his pro-Kremlin foreign policy positions, it’s not a daring leap of imagination to consider that Trump might put Putin’s tactics to use regarding Canada. So, what would Canada do in the event of an invasion? Well, it’s obvious that people in border-adjacent cities would be in trouble. (War is the one thing that might pop the real estate bubbles in Vancouver and Toronto.) The people in Canada’s north and its prairies might be in a better position to defend themselves: not since colonization have troops reckoned with Canadian winters, and there’s a reason Prince Harry trained at CFB Suffield in Alberta. But for the people of Ontario, it may be time to ask not just if your cottage is weatherproofed (assuming you have access to one), but how defensible it is. At least, until Her Majesty deploys the SAS on a rescue mission. Once upon a time, Canada could count on the military assistance of the European Union via England’s relationships. But Brexit has muddled the waters, and the future is uncertain. War-gamers, get out your maps of Canada. http://ottawacitizen.com/opinion/columnists/ashby-what-will-you-do-when-trumps-troops-invade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It still remains that the Americans had their butts kicked and don't even acknowledge it happened. Most Americans haven't any idea of anything Canadian. come on up and visit our National Igloo in Ottawa before it melts due to global warming. Stop off in Toronto the capitol of Canada on your way.

I have a friend in New York that I have a friendly Canada U.S. rivalry with. It revolves primarily around sports teams but it is fun to remind him of how the white house got burned to the ground. As for the humour aspect that is why I referred to the COMEDY movie with John Candy, Dan Akroyd, Alan Alda as the U.S. President and Rea Perlman. John Candy leads an invasion into Canada.
