Trump’s threats to Canada are not idle boasts and shouldn’t be taken as such. They call for a whole of society response.

The only takeover Canada is risking at this moment is one from within. It's insane there is anyone in Canada that wants to be part of the US... And apparently there's a decent number of these idiots.

Yeah it's like 10%

The CBC interviewed one of these people and that guy was basically only cared about money and though paying lower taxes would be better. Probably didn't factor in paying more money for health insurance.

But there was a guy nearby out walking his dog. When told what the interview was about he said "Is that what that rock over there is for? So we can throw it at him?"

I think it's just terminally online people that are greedy as fuck. But there isn't much risk of that 10% taking us over. If anything, they're the ones taking a risk if they express their collaborator bullshit publicly. 10% with soft support vs. 90% that are absolutely against everything they're about.

Don’t underestimate the number of idiots that will vote to inflict pain on everyone. Fight it, if you can. Signed, a population learning the hard way.
