This isn't a trade dispute. Trump wants to actually annex Canada (lemmy.ca)

Canada cannot win a trade war with the US. When we are on our knees he's going to ask for Yukon, nwt and nunavut. Saying basically nobody lives there and we don't need it. He can easily buy out northern Canadians by offering lots of money or citizenship and the other 39 million Canadians will reluctantly agree it's the best compromise.

He knows climate change is real and it makes the north more and more viable every day due to its resources and shipping route.

Another obvious hint at this was traitor Danielle Smith suggesting US military bases in the north just last week.

I vote we put the United States on a time out.

Every night, we turn off their power for half an hour until they smarten up. And increase the time if they continue to act like toddlers.

And I want Trudeau to announce it exactly like that. "We are putting you under a time out every night because if you're president wants to act like an unruly toddler, he'll be treated like one."

Don't do it at night. Do it at 8AM and stop at 5PM.

Turning off power at night hurts the common person. Turning off power during the day shuts down the businesses that overwhelmingly stumped for Trump to get a slightly lower tax rate.
