Right. Canada has provinces for the same reason that the US has states: People in difference regions have different needs, challenges, and concerns than people in other regions. Just as you cannot expect Texans to be just like Rhode Islanders because both are Americans, neither can you expect Nova Scotians to be anything like Saskatchewanians because both are Canadians. And you can expect Quebec to be like no other jurisdiction in North America, Canadian or American; not even those it is right next door to.
I agree that it is not going to happen anyway. Trump’s expansionist plans have so far failed regarding Panama and Greenland; and I see no reason why they would fail regarding Canada as well. It is just too big, and Canadians have no interest in joining the US. Hell, thanks to Trump, a lot of Canadians don’t even have any interest in vacationing in the US any more.
Since 2024, there has been a jaw-dropping 91 percent decline in U.S. wine sales to Canada. In just October of last year, there was an 84 percent year-over-year drop in wine sales compared to the prior year and a 56 percent drop in distilled spirit sales. Prior to the boycott, Canada was one of the primary export markets for American wine.
As reported by The Independent, large distilling companies like Brown-Forman Corporation (producer of Jack Daniel’s) have seen their organic net sales to Canada plummet by 60 percent in the first half of the 2026 fiscal year. Jim Beam faced such a significant drop in sales from both the Canadian boycott and the general drying up of its international markets on account of the tariff wars that it suspended production entirely at its flagship plant.
Trump hasn’t been able to enact regime change in Venezuela or Iran. “Conquering” Canada with this lot of incompetent boobs is out of the question.
Meanwhile, CNN asks; does Trump actually have any idea what’s going on anywhere with anything?
On Monday, he admitted he basically had no idea what he was talking about when he said that, then went on to suggest other countries, including Iran, use Tomahawk missiles, the type of munition that appears to have hit the school. Iran does not have Tomahawks.
When pressed at a news conference why nobody else in his administration was making the same claim about Iran being responsible (and instead pointing to an investigation), Trump said,“Because I just don’t know enough about it.”
He added that he would respect the findings of the investigation.
Just to put a fine point on that: Trump not only says he shared this claim despite appearing to know little about the situation; he’s also saying he didn’t know much about perhaps the single most controversial strike of the war.
Trump often seems to be residing in an elaborately crafted alternate reality.
But it’s one thing to do that with domestic policy; it’s another to appear so disconnected from reality when you are waging war in a highly combustible region.
Yet that seems to be the state of play, with no signs that Trump’s decisions will be grounded in reality any time soon.
Maybe. Even so, that doesn’t mean he wouldn’t try something like another Venezuela. Attack Ottawa, kidnap or assassinate Prime Minister Mark Carney, declare Canada to now be American territory.
It wouldn’t work, but Venezuela demonstrates that he might actually decide to try it anyway. I wouldn’t even try to guess the outcome, besides it being a disaster.
Donald Trump has demanded free transit for American commercial and military ships through the Panama and Suez canals, tasking his secretary of state with making progress “immediately”.
Trump has for months been calling for the United States to take control of the Panama canal but his social media post also shifted focus on to the vital Suez route. “American ships, both military and commercial, should be allowed to travel, free of charge, through the Panama and Suez canals!” Trump posted on Saturday.
Next will be that American planes, both military and commercial, should be free from paying airport taxes and navigation charges, and that the cost of American military bases should be borne by the “host” nation. Plus a small % off the top paid direct to Trump Inc as a facilitation fee.
First off, WTF is “the international hand signal for help”? Next, I don’t think these women are enemies. But let’s remember what rationale the felon used to deny asylum to many migrants: enemy aliens act.
Yeah, that’s what I want! I really want the people preparing my food to not use gloves after they take a dump and not use soap. Yeah. That e. coli really gives the food that ol’ Trump taste!
UFC fighters are going to train the FBI’s field agents in MMA, because unarmed strikes and submission grappling is how you solve crimes according to Kash Patel.
Lindsey is on a roll. Last week he bragged about how the U.S. was going to make a ton of money off the “new” Middle East, now he’s bragging about killing the right people. America! Fuck yeah!
