‘Nobody Is Safe’: Canada Sends World a Warning Against Trump

"Canada’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Mélanie Joly had one stark warning to share Wednesday: “If the U.S. can do this to us, their closest friend, then nobody is safe.”
-
Nobody is safe....except israel.
-
Unless Israel doesn't provide the 50 virgins trump ordered and the beach front areas requested.
-
Nah, Karmas coming for them.
Not because of some just world fallacy, they were just fucking stupid to build their supposed "promised land" on top of people who were already there, and surrounded by more people that it pissed off.
Iran's got a nuclear something for their ass sooner or later. Which will be WWIII, but Israel is Scrappy Doo, they're not as big as they think they are, and they just keep pushing, they will be pushed back, because a shittier neighbor by actions there is none.

As a Californian, I would love for us to become Canada’s newest province.
-
They don't want us. I already asked. But CA, OR, and WA can secede and make Cascadia minus the Canadian portion.
-
Nah. As a canukian, I'm down with it
-
As a resident of the Canadian portion of Cascadia I'd be in favour of a European style union of your former states and Canada. Unfortunately you're too big and too
American (for lack of a better term)heavily armed [found it] to just let you in. Maybe we could handle Hawaii but I'm sure they'd probably rather be their own country than join us which is totally fair. -
Too bad Arizona is in the way, NM wants to join you at least parts of us do.
-
I'd take California in a minute, please join us. We could use a little bit of sunshine.
You can leave behind your shitty governor though, I'll pass on that.
-
Can you talk Texas into splitting up into multiple states to offset the loss of WA OR & CA?
-
I wouldn't, as Canadian, because California would fully dominate such a union. It would be Canada joining California, not the reverse. Economically, politically, you'd be the biggest and most important province. I doubt you'll be happy being part of Confederation or being technically a monarchy.
-
Conveniently, if any states were to join Canada, they would most likely do so as territories (at least initially), and so would be somewhat politically neutered.
-
It'd be half-and-half. That's being easy going with Quebec though, right? /s

-
Hate to say it but imho trump would not let you leave. Is this something you guys are discussing with each other, I am genuinely interested.
-
Hmm.. CA, CA. 🤔
-
It would suit you so much. You’re the best state. I love California.
-
As a Californian I would love that just so I never had to be counted in the same group as the south.
-
Alta California the newest and northernmost state of Mexico

they're just saying what most americans have been screaming since 2016
-
The close cultural affinity gives us better insight. Europeans seem to see Americans through Hollywood. We see them shopping at Walmart.

We must stand together against the orange man.
-
They should ban the orange dye he uses and let him look pale and sick, this poor sleepy Don.
-
Even with the dye and makeup he looks like diarrhea in an orange garbage bag.

It is not just Trump, there is very little coming from the US that is not complete acceptance of his actions. For a long time the rest of the world called the USA the great satan and I think Western powers are beginning to see it.
-
For a long time I've worried that one day the USA would realize Canada has water, natural resources and strategic coastline, and suddenly all the "friendship" would become void and we'd get to experience what the USA has always done to countries with things it wants. But with Trump this has happened quicker than expected, and he's going to push hard to crush our country before we have time to defend ourselves. He's also going to try to divide European countries and Canada against one another. It's crucial that Europe and Canada find some solidarity right now and stand together in the face of the danger from the USA.
-
The US just does not have the power to take on its allies and the rest of the world in open aggression. Any thought that it does is illusory, look at relatively small countries like Vietnam and Afghanistan where it just had to leave or the terrible mess of the Middle East. It can not colonise in the way it was possible to do 200 years ago, the power asymmetry is just not there. Added into that many of the targeted countries are nuclear powers and part of numerous combined defense treaties. Any real action he takes will be visited back on him in equal or larger measure. At some level the US if not Trump must instinctively understand this, it is the past rational for proxy over direct wars.
-
The thing is Canada would just peacefully trade with us if we would let them, and Donald Trump is clearly using mein Kampf as an instruction manual, he's basically all like "the first thing the Nazis did? The Anschluss! I guess we're going to have to Anschluss Canada"

The joke that America is just 3 corporations in a trenchcoat is pretty accurate. There's a very small number of corporations that control almost all the media and the owners are oligarchs, willing to bend the knee so they can continue their dominance.
-
USA and the European Union. Russia is the "morally superior" state because democracy breeds decadence like tolerance of homosexuality and sexualization of children. Corrupt western Christian churches must be converted to the Russian Orthodox Church. Project 2025 is also Project Russia. https://washingtonspectator.org/project-russia-reveals-putins-playbook/
This is what USA's elected leaders actually believe.

"...but now representing a GREAT and POWERFUL STATE within the greatest Nation that the World has ever seen!”
Why does that quote from Krasnov immediately give Russia vibes 🤔
-
Pretty sure Europe is pretty much safe. We got the French. If the world was a marvel movie, they’d be the Hulk.
-
I am an out of the loop American, why France?
I know France has nukes but not much else
-
I’ll do my best to give you a short introduction.
Ever heard of the French revolution and the beheading of rich people? Let's put it this way, there are no more beheadings but when the government does something that the majority of the population doesn't like, things start to burn and shit breaks. "Liberté" is a big part if not the biggest part of French culture.
The same goes for their military. France was a colonial power for many centuries. And doesn't put up with anything if someone tries to act stupid. Like recently when France sent a nuclear submarine to Canada when Trump said he wanted to annex Canada. They also have the Foreign Legion which anyone can join and is considered one of the toughest armies in the world.
I've only scratched the surface, but France is basically what you get if fuck around and find out was a country.
