well that’s nine anyways
Canada Ping!
“Canada is being firmer with Russia than ObamaCarter is. “
I’d take Harper in the White Hut in a heartbeat over the turd we have.
The McDonald’s in Russia is actually a subsidiary of McDonald’s of Canada. Russia may start playing games too.
Harper knows that the Russians are only 45 minutes away from Canada’s Northern Reaches, where they are poised to violate Canada’s Sovereignty, and claim the oil resources under the ice.
And Harper has no military to protect Canada.( 100,000 men and women in the Canadian Armed Forces in a population of 30 million plus, not enough even to protect Ottawa). And will Obama help Canada .......NOPE....all former alliances with the USA are OFF and up for “Obama” redefinition.
Harper is nervous , as he should be. Damned right he is kicking Ivan’s ass. He has very little else he can do. In 5 years Canada could be speaking Russian as its official language, just like Poland could be.
We are on the brink of harvesting the gross stupidy of the Trudeau years which caused the Canadian Military to become just another collective of civil servants, and the gradual transmorgrification of the Canadian Mlitary into a bilingual force prepared to die wholesale in 2 languages
in defence of a nation where solialized medicine health care consumes 50% of the federal budget, far outstripping the military budget.
That bird of Canada’s military reductionism is about to come home to roost. It could cause the deaths of millions of Canadians and a loss of the Northwest Territories , and the Yukon, or maybe the whole nation.
Canada does not even have its own nukes!
All Harper CAN do is send Ivan home from Base Gagetown, besides hautily refusing the Russians heated latrines at latitude 5 degrees.
In all fairness to Obama, only Canada and the U.S. have announced that they won’t be attending the G-8. Only Canada and U.S. have taken any steps sanctioning Russia for its actions. Europe is the one who is rolling over for Putin.
Wow. This is getting cereal.
