Three guesses on who will have to defend them and the first two that aren't America don't count.

Pretty sad when your country is vulnerable to an armed takeover by the military forces of Chad or Guyana.
Oh wait, they can always count on the American taxpayer to save their ass.
It's like we have an unemployable brother-in-law living in our attic.

cannot carry out enough patrols of Canadian waters to comply with agreements with other government departments such as Immigration Canada In other words, either the U.S. Navy is going to have to start patrolling the Canadian coast or the U.S. Army is going to have to start patrolling the U.S./Canadian border.

If they hadn't passed C-68 and started the $1 billion gun registry, they'd still have money. Odd that they only meant to disarm the civilians.

What is the American taxpayer supposed to save our ass from? We have never asked you for anything to my knowledge. The libs decided to spend all the tax money on gun control and Quebec payola and now the chickens are coming home to roost and the Armed Forcess who hate the libs are building some nice big perches for the chickens to sit on. It is all about the coming election and about kicking the Liberals out on thier fat asses.

What is the American taxpayer supposed to save our ass from? We have never asked you for anything to my knowledge. Not yet. But if threatened by a superior military (like that of, say, Tuvalu), do you think it will be Germany, France or the US who will volunteer to help you resist the Tuvaluan hordes?
Good luck getting your liberals out of office and restoring your military, but until then, we got your back.
