Donald Trump has securing Canada’s resource wealth on his mind, and “one of the easiest ways of doing that is absorbing our country. And it is a real thing.”
People are more stupid than you think. I brought up this exact topic on another platform (that the USA wants Canada for its resources include fresh water), and many US responders laughed like it was the stupidest thing I could have concocted. I explained that I didn’t come up with it it has been an ongoing thing since the 60s where US wanted a trench from Canada to the USA as a water feed, etc. People already believed their own conclusion and citing sources didn’t change their mind on Trumps ulterior motive.
It has been a concern for a long time that as drought bites in the USA and the Arctic becomes a strategic waterway, the USA will want what Canada has in its lakes, its coasts, its farmable land and its other natural resources. It’s just that Trump is accelerating the process, trying to get it done before Canada has a chance to prepare any resistance, and before many Canadians twig what’s going on. I’m quite sure he’s serious, and quite sure he isn’t the only one.
Meanwhile Canadians are about to elect the most incompetent PM ever, whose only goal is to look tough and bigoted while screwing the little people, like Trump.
