"to appease Trump"

Typical of Roto-Reuters...blame Trump for Canada's failures.

Yes, the old Spectre Gunships. Terror in the sky; I’ve seen YouTube videos of them taking out terrorist groups in Iraq, Afghanistan, or somewhere. Once they see you, running or hiding is just a waste of time.

Yes, the old Spectre Gunships.

Spectre has been retired for decades; the AC-130J is far more lethal:

Armament: Precision Strike Package with 30mm and 105mm cannons and Standoff Precision Guided Munitions (i.e. GBU-39 Small Diameter Bomb, GBU-69 Small Glide Munition, AGM-114 Hellfire missile and AGM-176 Griffin missile)

Years ago (about 2010) I had an experience with Canadian border guards. I was entering Canada at the station where I-29 ends in North Dakota. They pulled me over...tore my car apart,demanded the password to my laptop and they asked me a million questions about firearms.

I was stunned by what was happening because I had already traveled the world (check my profile page if you're curious) and never experienced anything like it before.They weren't rude but they made it clear that they were in charge and that I wasn't free to go.

After about 90 minutes they let me in and I haven't had a bit of trouble since with any of my entries.

But when entering Canada from Alaska they probably expect people to have guns...and there's *no* 2nd Amendment up north.

Wonder if that will affect the Mohawk nation’s booming business smuggling low-tax Canadian cigarettes across the border.

I agree entirely.

My Canadian daughter-in-law's mother is moving here.

Snooty old broad used to love to go on about her ‘’wonderful Canadian health care’’. Ain't so swell now i it , eh?
