    The politicians themselves? Not really. We can't compare with the US in term of electorate's stupidity as of yet but we're slowly getting there - We've always been a bit slower than you.

    It is de facto a done deal. Three fourth of Canada feels just like North Minnesota. You won't feel a thing if you went there. Making it de jure will just ensure you guys would never get rid of the Democrats. =)

    We've got 12 relatively recent Halifax-class Frigates (4770t, 1992), for open sea work, and as much MCDVs (970t, 1996) for coastal work, plus some coastal, conventional, elderly subs.

    Or... just a bit more conservative. Maybe ponderate would have been a better term.

    I'll gladly use both definitions, in our case. Can't say I'm particularly proud of our collective political savvy, of late. But when I compare...

    The US will defend Canada to the last man. In this respect we are completely united. No foreign invader is going to set his foot in North America and survive.

    Lmao, the US are the ones who put tariffs on Canadian products. It's like punching someone in the face, then acting surprised when they punch back.

    Only in Trumpster fantasy world, where every one of Trump's ridiculous false claims and lies are rationalized and where Trumpsters bob their bobble heads just because Trump said it.

    Trump is now on TV claiming that he can pardon himself (yes, he just put himself above the law).

    Other than Canada being a British territory, and base for military actions during the War of 1812. I'd watch who I refer to as "morons"...

    Glad the highest office in the land doesn't have a ****ing clue about military history and is given the authority to attack other nations by our congress.

    Un. Real.

    Oh it can be said without being a moron. This has already been posted, but more food for thought:

    “Ross had no intention of destroying DC; however, his troops wanted revenge for the burning of the capital of Upper Canada, York, the previous year. A letter received by Admiral Cockburn–whose flotilla was working its way up the Potomac River–from the Governor General of Upper Canada, Sir George Prevost, detailed recent American actions including the burning of several settlements along the frontier, prompting Ross and Cockburn to take action against American government property in retaliation for the burning of their own capital.”

    https://uschs.wordpress.com/2012/08/02/major-general-robert-ross-and-the-war-of-1812/


    What it boils down to is it was done for Canada by British troops.

    The only people who say things like that are MORONS! One of them is the vulgar little man in the White House.

    Canada wasn't "part of GB."

    It -was- GB at the time.
