      Should we ask the UK if we’re burning down the white house, or Mar-a-Lago this time?

      Let’s assume hypothetically Canada does become annexed.

      This isn’t an empty land. It has preexisting culture, systems, and regulations.

      As a taxpayer, I want to know who is going to burden the cost of the transition. How will it affect existing laws?

      – Will our schools and healthcare system continue being funded?

      – Will our crown corporations still manage our resources?

      – How will the constitutional changes be handled to things like our bill of rights? Will Quebec still have autonomy to its French culture and the notwithstanding clause?

      – Will marijuana remain legal?

      – The protection of our national parks?

      – The rights that our indigenous communities have?

      – What about the rules and regulations for food services in Canada?

      – What about things like the tax benefit that made stuff like the Sonic 3 movie possible?

      – Will the US government handle the cultural distinctions of Quebec, Nunavut, NWT?

      – What about all the work needing to be done to transition from metric to imperial system on regulations and signage?

      – What about Canadian banks and financial institutions? Existing investments?

      – School regulations and lesson plans?

      And this is just the start of the headache that is having to adapt Canadian institutions to American.

      – Will the RCMP maintain their job or be merged with the FBI?

      – How will the US contend with the separatists of Quebec?

      – French? Will Americans learn French as their second official language?

      – **What about unceded Indigenous land?**(will indigenous communities have a say?)

      SOOOO many questions to consider, if the annexation were ever intended to be fair in the first place.

      Do Americans have any idea how much it will cost their tax payers to either maintain or transition these systems?

      Americans should take the time to actually learn about Canadian culture and standards, since annexing us means they have to take over these responsibilities as well, INCLUDING THE FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITIES. (unless their intent is to tax without representation? Hoo boy… America is in for a surprise, especially when Quebec is involved. Remember, remember, the crisis of October.)

      I don’t understand why Trump wants to add millions of more left leaning voters to the US. Republicans wouldn’t win again for decades if Canadians can vote in presidential elections.

    6. No_Friend4042 on

      This is a distraction, cause Trump doesn’t really want to address how is a cockholster to Putin. Canadians should sit back and call his bluff… or perhaps instigate shit by increasing the price of shipping our natural resources to the US, better yet, let’s just shut off the power lines that feeds the US East Coast.

      He promised California all the free water they would want back before election. I guess he wants to melt our ice?

      If your grandfather was acting like Trump you would send him to a mental institution or nursing home right away.

    12. mjincal on

      Is it worse than the time fu man chu threatened to curl your grandmother’s toes?

    13. canteixo on

      I don’t think Canadians understand what is about to happen in 12 days.
      He could cause a lot of pain very easily and there isn’t much Canada can do.
      He was restrained in 2016 but now he won’t and what’s worse he’s surrounded by people that are just as crazy or maybe more than he is.

    14. sor2hi on

      He thinks he can tariff Canada into joining the USA. That would take a long time of horrible economic devastation and it would greatly affect the USA as well. If he thinks he can keep his country running with zero cooperation from canada best of luck to him. (While also doing the same to Mexico and others) He’ll lose favour and be out of office before any of this could happen.

      Unless he can use China and Russia to prop up his economy, which right now, seems a tough pill for the USA to swallow, it wont work. I don’t know how many (Americans) he can make believe that they will be good partners. It would be the craziest shift of alliances I’ve ever heard of.

      How difficult would it be for Canada to create nuclear weapons? What would international fallout from this look like?

    16. Lubricatedfish on

      If the US does someone get Canada which I don’t think is gonna happen. As an American I hope we get decent healthcare 🙁

    20. Dontuselogic on

      America is going to destroy its own economy trying to.

      There was nothing more deadly than united, angry canadains .

      We will just hunker down and let tariffs wreck America

    21. cormack49 on

      Just remind him of the time we burnt down the white house…it could happen again

    24. Cautious_Ice_884 on

      Lets pretend for a moment this is actually serious, lets pretend for a moment we actually go to war…..

      You think Britain & the Monarch would let Canada go??? Not a chance in hell. So they would be heavily involved. England as a whole has a strong army and military force. If we needed help from other common wealth Countries that could lend their military would be involved; such as Australia.
      We have strong connections with France; we were shoulder to shoulder with them in WW2. They would be involved.

      That’s just touching the tip of the iceberg as far as countries that would be involved that would back us. It would be an utter shit show.

    25. TomTHP on

      Even if Canadians voted to join the US. How long would this process take?

      It would take several years. The Crown would probably not just let that happen. How about the constitution?

      And can we really all be one single state? That would be the largest state in the world. I can only imagine each Province becoming a State.

      From an international standpoint, this merger would probably spark a war with China, Russia… I don’t see how this is even conceivable.

      This sounds absolutely impossible to accomplish, even if Canadians were all for it.

    26. bluddystump on

      If annexation against Canada’s will did happen there would be enough patriots to throw sand in the works for generations.

      As an American, the best thing you guys can do is ignore everything this man does. It’s his intention to trend in your medias. That’s all this is. It has nothing to do with what he’s saying rather than implanting himself into your everyday thoughts. It’s the same tactic he used on us Americans and many of us became addicted to his media presence, whether we hate him or loved him, we paid attention to him constantly. This is how he does it. Do not pay attention to anything he does at all costs. That’s his trap.

      Have they considered the ramifications of adding 55 electoral collage votes to the Democratic party?

    29. Dapper_1534 on

      Do any of the NATO articles cover what happens when one member attacks other?

    30. frosty3x3 on

      All we can hope for is the orange turd suffers from an acute sudden onset copper coated lead poisoning.
      Sorry..not sorry.

    32. ScatteredSignal on

      We would %100 wipe out enough Americans to make this less palatable.

    35. c0ldb00t on

      Trump is a very smart man. Look beyond the smoke and see what he truly desires. Let me school you all in on the end game. Because of global warming.. new shipping lanes have been opened. That’s right. This is what it’s about. These new shipping lanes cut down maritime travel by 20-30 days which is a gamechanger. He cannot allow Russia and China to be the only ones with unfettered access to these new shipping lanes. He wants control. This is why he’s about to annex canada.. and thank Trudeau for giving him the blueprint to do it.. when JT said canada will fold with just a little economic pressure from the usa.. that was it. Trump saw he could get what he wanted: the new shipping lanes for global travel/trade

      He was trolling Trudeau. He resigned this doesn’t make you happy?
