How’s that Canadian dollar roller-coaster working out with the expanded social program agenda, Canada? Miss those horrible conservatives and the dollar parity you had?

They still got the oil sands so Canada should be all right. Even if they become more socialist.

In years gone by Canada was a powerful ally in NATO. Now they are nothing. They were experts at ASW and keeping the sea lanes open.
Now we provide all the rescue helo’s for the west coast and their subs are tied to a pier. They have been pussified.

Venezuela’s an extreme case. Just like the former Soviet Union.

Don’t forget that by the end of WW2, Canada had the 4th largest naval fleet in the world. Today? Why pay for Defense when USA will protect them no matter what?

They literally are “America’s Hat” now. Token contributions in our poorly-done occupations and that’s it; between extremely virulent liberal-socialism* and economic monkeyshines they literally CAN’T do more.

*My church is on the verge of classifying them as ‘a nation hostile to the beliefs and teaching of Christianity’...a status normally reserved for 3rd-world nations that will literally throw you to the lions.

We should basically tell Somali Pirates that it’s open season on Canadian cargo ships. Feel free to raid those ships as long as you leave the American ones alone.

It’s long past time for America to withdraw her protection from ‘allies’ that aren’t.
