No, this is a major reason they will invade Canada. Starving people are desperate people.
This is another reason they will invade Canada. They won't allow their war machine to starve either. They will do anything they have to do to keep it moving.
trump is cutting the budget on the war machine too. And the vets. And culled DEI… their morale is at an all time low. He doesn’t give a shit about military and treats them as nothing more than an asset for estate expansions.
And as for reasons you’re giving to survive: it is already in place without war. as it stood before trump took over US already had food and metal and help with putting out fires without a war. And people are already currently fleeing to the North without violence. US gets all these things without needing to force their dictatorship on all their allies.
It will cost more metal in artillery to go to war and serve no function other than to start even more fires burning up areas that you’d be running to anyways and making it unusable. Doesn’t jive with his estate plans. So it makes no sense. And during fire season the place will burn up without firefighters that come from Canada and Australia (and given that trump failed during the last fire in California I think they are in worse hands now) because as I said : it’s a global condition. There is already a functional relationship in place to try to sustain life in a very delicate environment as the climate changes. Now is not the time for power and expansion. It’s the time for sustainability.
