Also important to note:

Canadians have some of the best trained military in the world.

The US sends their own high profile units to Canada to get trained, especially when it comes to snipers.

Last I recall, most world records for sniping are held by Canadians, or people trained by Canadians.

Canada has long held a standard of quality over quantity, quite often the US sends their best to be trained here.

Add on the well known fact that Canadians are very well known for constantly coming up with some of the most fucked uo ways to commit war crimes when pushed too far (WW1 anyone?) And it becomes apparent why no one fucks with Canada

Everyone is always trying to be on our good side for a reason. US has numbers, and that’s pretty much it.

They would never win any kind of war against us.

How well equipped is the average US soldier to handle our climate and terrain?

That sounds insane, I’m having trouble believing someone is using 125x the lethal dose of fent a day, that sounds inhuman.

according to the article that’s less than half a baby aspirin

It’s also the equivalent of 20 to 40 entire doses

One dose of fentanyl laced in other drugs is usually less than a single grain of sand

So 40mg is a fuck tonne of fentanyl to have on hand.

Usually users don’t carry pure fentanyl around, it’s already been laced into other drugs, so they maybe have a couple mg total on hand even for multiple peoples worth.

40mg is like an entire box of laced pills.

I think if the policy specifically targets people pushing and selling fentanyl, I agree those people do deserve to be in prison.

The vast majority of people using it don’t even know they are using it, it’s been laced into drugs they buy

I agree that the “drug kingpins” do deserve to be locked up.

Problem though: a lot of them are tightly interwoven with the pharmaceutical corporations, so you’re kinda calling for checks notes pharma ceos to get jail time, Pierre.

And I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess that’s not what you meant.

Canada also needs to spin up a full on poaching program and asylum program.

Any US citizen with a fairly clean criminal record (with anything legal in Canada ignored, IE possession of weed would be ignored as that’s legal here) ca apply for immediate Canadian citizenship as long as they renounce America

Priority given to anyone with any form of valuable skills, degrees, tickets, certificates, etc

If you can build houses, you get in and can start work ASAP.

We need to simply poach the US’s valuable workforce at a time like this, which instantly will drag down their overall economy.

All your best scientists? Teachers? Engineers? Developers? Architects? Plumbers? Electricians? Doctors, nurses, surgeons? You name it, we should poach it right now on a fast track, watch as the US suddenly watches huge swaths of its work force evaporate.

Follow up with just cutting off trade with the US for as long as it takes. Completely sever their energy, oil, food, lumber, etc supply.

The entire north will quickly dry up as suddenly food skyrockets in price.

Finally end respecting of US patents and trademarks. Start quickly making our own versions of drugs patented in the US, but way cheaper.

Want our cheap drugs and better medical systems? Our poaching asylum system is ready for you.

It never really stopped this year with how dry it was. We had some wildfires in Dec and Jan, not as many but still, eesh.

Jan 1st many lawns in my neighborhood were still devoid of snow and dry dead grass was everywhere.

As an Edmontonian, this is perpetually exhausting.

I don’t want to have to sell my house and move to Newfoundland, but it seems like maybe that’s what I am going to have to do if this shit keeps up.

I have basically zero financial, cultural, spiritual, or emotional reason to stick around other than my family lives here.

Crazy thought, wild idea, hear me out…

What if people stopped getting their news from Facebook

Only people who are mad are the lazy people who seriously cant be assed to actually read the news and want it spoon fed to them in the form of clickbait headlines shared by anti-vax aunt suzy
