The second he said "we don't need anything Canada has" I knew we won.

Except our pushovers will sell us out at the first opportunity.

Only a certain pushover in Alberta or our small pp official opposition... the rest seem solid.

I knew walruses were keeping things from us.

Tariffs on Canada are still up, I assume? On steel, aluminum, and car factories? A war with Canada becomes more likely as the nations attempt to decouple. Meanwhile Canada attempts to strengthen its pipeline infrastructure to export oil to its coasts, and not to its land borders in the south.

All the other wars that have been fought with people above the 49th parallel have ended with the people who would become Canadians getting wasted and burning down the White House.

Some place that has less nukes and less nutjobs with guns than the USA, I assume.

Yeah you know we have only had two nuclear bombs dropped on us, one in BC and one in I wanna say Nova Scotia. Luckily those dumb Americans do not know how to arm there bombs of the many nuclear bombs they have made go boom I think the count is 5 went off.

5 went off

Both of those instances were emergencies due to engine failure, and both bombs were detonated conventionally.

Further than that, over 1000 nukes were detonated through tests over the 4 and a half-ish decades they were tested.

What exactly are you saying?

No we don't. Need is different from want.

We don't need more rare minerals any more than you need tar sands industry.
