Trump’s talk on annexing Canada ‘real,’ Trudeau says in hot mic moment
The federal government is hosting a summit in Toronto Friday aimed at bolstering the economy in the face of Canada's rapidly changing relationship with its largest trading partner.
We didn't need a hot mic moment to know that. And if anything I'm glad that Canadian leaders are taking it seriously.
From one point of view, I don't think the US will ever want to take over Canada. They own us already and our resources, our corporations and businesses and I don't think they want to the expense of running our country. They have our money and resources, it would just cost them more to run manage us.
From another point of view, if they do want to take us over with military force and occupy us .... that is even more expensive and difficult to implement and manage. How much do you think it would cost to have thousands of troops, officials and military run around Canada to keep us 'under control'.
It's a business decision and our Canadian leadership being such whores to money, it's just cheaper to keep us under a leash and keep us at arms length, while doing whatever they want with us anyway.
I really don't see how it would be feasible in practice, simply using economic and political influence over Canada seems much more practical.
They can’t change the birthrate decline fast enough to make that a go for a good long while. Look at the enlistment numbers, they’re at a low. It would be a draft. And our current society isn’t draft material. Most of us wouldn’t work well as soldiers, and those that would probably wouldn’t comply. In addition, going to prison would be free housing, meals, and medical. The food would be crappy, but even so, it may serve as motivation to NOT comply.
Trump is one of those fantastical idiots who isn’t an idiot. He’s not going to annex Canada. It’s part of the brute force strength show to make the executive branch the only branch. Shock and Awe among all the details we are actually being made aware of. For everything we know, there’s at least 3 things we don’t know. What you need to ask is, why is this a headline?
Interest in Greenland and Yukon is something we’ve all explored over on Reddit. A mad rush to gather and exploit what’s under the ice when it melts. Many of you guys proposed it would be the spark of WW3. (They simply have to ignore the acknowledgement of global warming in this, because it may mess up their political agenda.) If anything, this ends with an annex of part of what’s under that ice.
Remember, Trump has never been interested in the United States or the US Constitution, only in how to be king. This is part of why prior 2016-2020 staff call him a fascist.
What I do think was more of a gaffe that probably had his people gesticulating wildly off camera was letting people know pre 2024 election this would be the last time they’d ever have to vote.
Trump wants to be king of a powerful and rich country. That will not happen unless he behaves strategically. The strategy we are seeing glimpses of looks very much like German Fascism with Information Age American Characteristics
2025 prediction: trudeau confirms he actually is the son of castro, and annexes the US.
Technocracy is back, baby!
