    Why does he think ALL of Canada should be a single state, anyway?

        The Canadian government really should be funding courses on combat first aid, self-sufficiency, and other non-combat insurgency courses.

                    North Korea and Russia have a military alliance as North Korean soldiers were fighting in Ukraine with Russia under Russian control.

                    I agree that it is a press statement being BFFs, but China has been supporting Russia’s war efforts with Russia saying they would also support Chinese war efforts. It is definitely a weird alliance, and they most certainly do not trust each other, but they are clearly working together to be a counter to “Western” influence and are likely going to increase military, intelligence, and trade ties.

                    I hope that it stops at proxy wars, espionage, and tradefare. I just do not see it as likely given the climate.

                    It’s true that the three have become kind of aligned, I’ll give you that. But, “alliance” implies something like NATO where an attack on one is an attack on all.

                    What you’ve mentioned are cases of Russia buying things. The NK troops were sent in exchange for technology and goods. China won’t even sell devoted military hardware, only dual-use civilian technology.

                              The precept behind this is that Canada needs the Golden dome to defend itself from Russia or China. What’s lost is that NORAD defends the US from Russia. We should be paid to protect the US from Russia.

                              If we choose to not demonically hate Russia and China, as a carbon copy of US dictated demonic policy, then there is zero need to defend ourselves from what what we do not threaten. A nuclear attack on Canada involves us crossing a dementia line, where even if we’re not the active threat to human countries, exterminating Canadians is viewed as a net global positive. Europe is far ahead of our dementia, and a legitimate threat to humanity in its demonic fascist evil, we would STFU quickly when US bases in Europe are nuked. We already do not need NORAD for defense of Canada. Our section of golden dome would only be to protect the US, and so if they want to build it, they MUST pay us to build it. They also need to start paying us for NORAD. Chinese missiles will not go through Artic to hit US, and again, the best defense is to stop being stupid vs humanity, and being part of same alliances as US.

                                Is it really shocking that we have spineless milquetoast leadership?

                                No party ran a candidate last election that I’d consider a particularly worthy PM.

                                Carney is preferable to pee pee poo poo but imo he’s still severely lacking as a PM.

                                    More than 3,000 kilometres north of the nation's capital, soldiers, ships and aircraft of Canada's Armed Forces gathered this week in one of the most remote areas of the country to answer one question: How would they board a foreign vessel that neither wanted to be seen, nor stopped.What if the crew of that ship was near sensitive military sites in the North? It may seem far-fetched. But smaller vessels run routinely through the north often with no transponders — largely invisible to other ships

                                    North Korea accused South Korea of a “serious provocation” Saturday after South Korean troops fired warning shots at North Korean soldiers setting up barriers along their tense border. Ko Jong Chol, vice chief of the North Korean People’s Army’s General Staff, noted that Tuesday’s warning shots coincided with the South Korea-U.S. summertime military drills and accused Seoul of deliberately trying to raise tensions.

                                      We don’t need a golden dome. The only country that will ever be a threat to us is US. If the US wants a golden dome they need to pay us to help with shielding their pure evil.

                                      The other lie is that “its free if Canada gets burdened by huge US historical debt” (all resulting from department of war)

                                      That there is no leader or media in Canada explaining this basic reality to Canadians proves our colonial status and our brainwashing to desperate slavery.

                                        Can the west coast, Hawaii and upper east coast of America become Canadian provinces?

                                          I’ll go back to the US when Trump and his cronies are dead.

                                          I’m pretty much done for life unless there’s a Nuremberg-style event for all the ICE cosplayers. Trump is only the tip of the iceberg there’s so much more trouble waiting in the depths.
