BANFF - The governor of the U.S. state that shares the longest border with Canada expressed dismay at the notion that his country would ever invade its southern neighbour.
If you look at what Russia controls of Ukraine at this point, they’re getting literally nothing from it. The Donestsk region of Ukraine has lost almost half it’s population (about 3.5 million people have left) since the start of the war. The major cities don’t have consistent water, heat, electricity, or even food supplies. Russia is getting nothing from “controlling” it.
The war may still be going on, but the only reason is because the Russian military is literally willing to shoot people that try to refuse. If there was any allowance for a second government option, Putin would already be gone. The US may be slipping into autocracy, but Trump is not even close to that entrenched or powerful.
12 years since Crimea, still ongoing. I don’t think anyone would consider Ukraine to have won right now. Even though I want it to be the case that we’d shut down us annexation, I don’t think its realistic that it’d be quick or over before it started.
I’m Canadian.
I still think your way too positive, and using russia/Ukraine seems to me to be an argument against you (considering its still going)

We dont need to be positive, we just need to fight to the last. Make every moment of occupation miserable.
