What will you do when Trump's troops invade?

What will you do, when President Trump orders his troops to invade Canada?

[...]

Canada is a country worthy of invasion. Canada has abundant resources of fresh water, oil, coal and timber, all of which will be increasingly important as climate change continues its death march across history. The longer we scorch the Earth, the more valuable Canada’s resources become.

[...]

Besides, we all know how Trump feels about oil resources. “It used to be ‘to the victor belong the spoils,’ ” he said when asked about Iraq at the NBC Commander in Chief Forum, adding “Now, there was no victor there, believe me. There was no victor. But I always said: Take the oil.” How would President Trump feel, if he learned that Canada is second only to Saudi Arabia in its available oil reserves, and that its oil is less costly to produce than that of other suppliers?

Would President Trump wait for a pipeline? No. Waiting for a safe and legal pipeline takes too much time. Annexations for oil resources are much simpler. Just ask Ukraine. Given Trump’s connections to Putin via ex-adviser Paul Manafort, and his pro-Kremlin foreign policy positions, it’s not a daring leap of imagination to consider that Trump might put Putin’s tactics to use regarding Canada.

So, what would Canada do in the event of an invasion?

I wouldn’t do squat, but your country, Madeline, couldn’t do squat either just because you’ve sponged off the US military since after WW II.

I’ve got real experience invading a county. What’s one more country. Bound to be better than Iraq 91. :)

I’d gladly share it! But only if Trump comes up here and makes Trudeau cry like a baby. Plus, you have to keep your crazy lefties in your own country. We’re swimming in them already.

The last time he posted was back in 2008 which made him an 8 year old back then.

Maybe he only surfaces for elections.

LOL, Hi Judy!

I think when Trump is elected PM Trudeau will cry like a baby.

As far as America's liberals are concerned, off to reeducation camps with them! :-)

“We actually have a history of plans to invade one another, none of which are particularly strategically impressive.”

One of them, however, is one of my favorite conflicts. That’s the less-than-famous “Pig War” of 1859.

From Wiki:

“The Pig War was a confrontation in 1859 between the United States and Great Britain over the Canada-U.S. border in the San Juan Islands, between Vancouver Island and the mainland. The Pig War, so called because it was triggered by the shooting of a pig, is also called the Pig Episode, the Pig and Potato War, the San Juan Boundary Dispute or the Northwestern Boundary Dispute. With no shots exchanged and no human casualties, this dispute was a bloodless conflict.”

Oh my gosh - this is exactly like the talk about Reagan in ‘80.

Probably my favorite war.

Rear Adm. R. Lambert Baynes, commander of British naval forces in the east Pacific. Baynes, appalled at the situation, advised Douglas that he would not "involve two great nations in a war over a squabble about a pig."

I admire the sentiment, but dang it, it's all we had.

Why would we invade a country we could simply buy?

Talk about an inferiority complex! I guess they will cower as we stampede their women and rape their cattle.
