Curious: does anybody _not_ pronounce that “bomb a deer”?

Seriously, it’s so pretentious of those francophone Quebecois to insist on pronouncing all these English names with a French accent. Learn to speak Canadian already!

Come to Newfoundland, they pronounce them the Proper Way. My grandmother was born a Cormier, pronounced Corm-yer. Then there’s the Fillier family, filly-er.

And don’t even get me started on [Bay Despair](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bay_d'Espoir#Name).

There are a lot of people like me who grew up with very fond feelings for our friendly sister in the north. You think the Vietnam protests were intense? Those were for a nation on the other side of the world that we didn’t even know. If Trump invaded Canada, the protestors would number in the millions.

Yes, it is. The USA is in for a very long darkness.

Reality is no longer legal tender in the USA; half the country really, truly beleives “Antifa” is burning cities to the ground. And they’re going to be one hundred percent behind the US government taking people in the night and engaging in extrajudicial killings to stop the phantom enemy.

Within a few years, the Trump regime will start arresting Democratic politicians.

I refuse to accept Putin as an “example” because he is the dictator of an evil empire, not the president of a democratic nation. I REFUSE to accept Netanyahu as an “example” because he is responding to rocket attacks on his nation. If Canadians crossed the border, fired rockets at Minneapolis, and then ran back across the border, I’d invade, too.

I think you mean “months” here. He’s already declared that anyone who opposes him is an “insurrectionist.”

How about Cleveland? Can we fire rockets at Cleveland?

It would be longer trip for them. On the other hand, they could quietly travel on missile barges during the cover of darkness. But then, again, they’d never be able to get back before we caught them.

We are watching the death of MAGA because Trump IS MAGA and there is no MAGA without him. This has been blatantly obvious since 2016. Republicans can’t win without Trump.
