This why Canada must hit the 2% Nato Budget and start developing nuclear weapons because the fascist wont pleased with ruining his own land.

[–] Mongostein@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Can this be used against him somehow? Like in a legal way? If he actually believes what he’s saying, he’s clearly not fit for office.

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 32 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Brother I know you've been paying attention but he seems rather immune from legal consequences

[–] Mongostein@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Yeah, I know… I kinda hope he actually doesn’t know that Canada is it’s own country and that this causes some kind of something I dunno.

Just die already, Trump.

[–] atlas@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

oh no he definitely knows, he just threatened to annex Canada because we don't agree with the tariffs

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Hey, what kind of missiles does the Canadian military stock?

Can you point a couple our way in the next month or two? Thanks

[–] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Aw shit, here we go again...

loads 200 year-old cannon at Fort Erie

[–] 1985MustangCobra@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 weeks ago

launches 150 year old wooden boats from fort Niagara

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Please and thank you!

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Some of our missiles we don't talk about. Much of the rest went to Ukraine.

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

C'mon, you can spare one for your old buddy, can't you?

[–] Pilferjinx@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Best I can do is a boat. You provide the oars.

[–] A7thStone@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

We're already up shit creek without a paddle.

[–] InEnduringGrowStrong@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Best I can offer is burning the White House all over again.

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That's fine, too, but it would be preferable (for both of us, I think) if you waited a few months

Yea, things might have changed since 1814

[–] fourish@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Jackass likes attention. Don’t give it to him.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (6 children)

So I hear some of yall are considering it, just be sure to demand each province as a state if you actually decide to join our clusterfuck of a country. Nunavut has just as much right to statehood as Quebec

[–] masterofn001@lemmy.ca 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The only people considering it are the ones the maganazis would execute for genetic deficiency.

[–] 1985MustangCobra@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

was at local best buy here in scarborough, saw a guy talking to some landscapers wearing body armor and a maga hat.

"Hang on. Let me run inside and get my sledge hammer and industrial hedge trimmers to make sure your suit is safe, practical, and fit for purpose... Wouldn't want you getting hurt."

Pardon my language, but holy fuck what an absolute goof of a moron.

[–] 1985MustangCobra@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago

I was actually curious why he was there.

[–] ProgrammingSocks@pawb.social 10 points 2 weeks ago

Nobody who isn't a clown is considering it. It's the equivalent of Texas separatists.

[–] 1985MustangCobra@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

the only people considering it live in the province that starts with the letter A

[–] GeeDubHayduke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Africa? Australia? Antarctica..?!

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

...llllfonso.

[–] 1985MustangCobra@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] GeeDubHayduke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Doesn't begin and end with the same letter! You're out!

[–] 1985MustangCobra@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Sorry. If it's not playground rules, then it's just mayhem.

Nunavut does not, but that's because it's organized as a territory, rather than a province. Big differences in sub-national governance.

So Nunavut could join the ranks of USVI, Guam, Samoa, Puerto Rico, etc.

[–] Mongostein@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Nobody on this side of the border us considering it.

[–] Sturgist@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I think you might be disappointed with how many morons actually are. I mean....there was trump rallies and stop the steal people in Canada during the 2020 fiasco

[–] Grimpen@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago

How many Qonvoyers were going on about their "second amendment rights". One must presume they are very concerned about the formation of Manitoba.

[–] ThatOrangeBird@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago

I live 5 minutes from someone who plasters their property with Trump election signs and has one of those signs with changeable letters where they regularly write U.S. political nonsense. They've been doing this since the last election.

I'm in Ontario.

[–] Pyr_Pressure@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago

I would never want my province to join America, but I wouldn't mind if we separated from Canada and join a couple of nearby states who left America to make something new. Both America and Canada kind of suck.

[–] CodeGameEat@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Yeah it would just never happen. For that kind of change, according to the constitution, every province will need to approve it (unanimous) + the 2 houses of federal government. That will simply never happpen.

[–] festus@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That's assuming Trump doesn't just order the military in and annex us by force, which is the greater concern.

[–] ProgrammingSocks@pawb.social 7 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

His generals would probably not follow such an order because it would literally shatter NATO and international relations as a whole.

[–] 1985MustangCobra@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago

not if he get's his way and and gets his picks in.

[–] Fusty@lemmy.ml -1 points 2 weeks ago

Are a lot of you TruAnon cult members?
