    So they’ll only not invade us if we Canadians are suitably “responsible”? The same people who have done everything they can to promote fossil fuels, shut down climate science, defund and hinder climate action, spread misinformation, and persecute climate activists? Those insufferable world-destroying assholes are lecturing us about responsibility?

    Never think the US fascists have given up on the idea of annexing Canada. Canadians need to keep up the boycotts of US goods, services and tourism. The Canadian government needs to keep planning to defend Canada from US invasion.

      I chose to boycott for life. I will never back down.

      Still some areas impossible to boycott though. Waiting for a good vehicle option that isnt either American or american-made foreign

      Nah, it’s political posturing. The words are less than meaningless. The point is they’re building the synthetic casus belli. This shouldn’t be surprising or new information to you. If it is, we’re fucked.

        Sounds like you agree that their threats to Canada are serious, even if the details are nonsense.

            Then I don’t. Can you explain? I thought since a casus belli is a pretext for war, that you must agree the USA is threatening Canada. And I thought that by “synthetic casus belli” you would mean that they’re cooking up pretexts for hostility.
