Can't we like, globally cut off any and all ties with the US and leave them to fester in their own hellhole? Hell, we'll build the walls AND pay for them!
- Know how Vietnam lost in the end? It wasn't the ground war. It was the global trade war.
  
  Did you drop your /s? Cause I recall Vietnam winning both wars against the us and french.
  
  They didn’t?
  
  They didn’t?
- I'll tell my Canadian wife and all of the millions of protestors about your warm and inviting attitude
  Shut up or help. Eos
  
  not my pig not my farm
  
  Shut up or help
  They are trying to help the people who are making the mistake of traveling to the US.
So we're now at the stage where people risk being arrested without a charge by goons unwilling to properly identify themselves and then being killed because of that?
The current situation in the United States is eerily similar to 1930s Germany in my opinion. We're probably just a few months away from political opponents being picked up on made up charges or even disappeared straight up.
- You can really see how Hitler happened when there was no free information flow like the internet. Even now people are confused but imagine if all you had is literally just hearsay and the newspaper says nothing bad is happening and there are no goons kidnapping people.
  
  I even understand much better why Germany fell prey to fascism at the time. Germans had gone through two million KIA, major territorial losses, a once in a century pandemic, hyperinflation, crippling economic war reparations and a once in a century economic depression in the span of less than twenty years and yet only a third of them voted for the fascist in the last free election. Keep in mind that democratic tradition was not firmly established in Germany by that point. Meanwhile US citizens have gone through a major economic crisis in 2008/9, a major pandemic and and increase in egg prices and suddenly more than half of voters there chose the fascist.
- This person was actually convicted of trafficking opioids in an actual court in 2022, so it's not a random Canadian plucked off the street.
  That being said prisoners do still deserve basic human rights like healthcare and with people being arrested without due process now, just coming to the US shouldn't mean risking your life.
- I think you've already had that happen, haven't you?
- Months. Look at NY. Theballoys aren't even drying the GOP wants to revoke citize ship of rhw Democratic nominee....
How many international incidents are we up to now?
Spoiler Alert, he was killed by the Trump regime and New American Fascism.
Time to call our citizens back and close the border, or at the very least mark the US as one of the most dangerous, if not most dangerous, places in the world. Cancel that deal they just signed with that scammy US co (saw the article earlier but forget where it was).
- Close the border, build a wall, and make the US pay for it.
  
  Border walls are pointless (look at the southern US border they climb over, through, and even under), but a beautiful hedge running from coast to coast would be nice
- My parents have dual Canadian and US citizenship I'm desperately trying to get them to back here to Canada. I'm really worried about them right now because any day now ICE or someone could tell them their US Citizenship means jack shit.
- I agree with you, for the good of your nation and people the border should be closed, but there goes my calamity escape plan.
Canada Needs Nukes!
Fuck the USA. Close the borders.
- We should just drop the entire global nuclear arsenal simultaneously into the Mariana trench and end it all, Tansume style.
  
  We should ask Randall Munroe what would happen if we did this.
What a soft response to such a serious crime. They don't do that when citizens dies or are kidnapped in other non allied countries
I assume he was too brown for the average canadian....
- Nah, photos show a white guy. He probably had memes on his phone or sassed an ICE agent.
Would you accept lies and obfuscation instead?
Recall the ambassador.
Blink the lights.
Wait for them to call.
Apparently he had some criminal charges on him. Still not good though.
He abandoned Canada 3 decades ago, never came back. I say, f' em.
