I think this bears repeating.
We will make you forget Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan. The insurrection will be continent wide and we will just walk over the border and start looting weapons.
We are tougher than anyone thinks and can survive just fine pretending to be homeless or just in your woods or in a looted home.
We will live among you indistinguishable until something good to blow up comes along, or an American needs tied to a tree with their dick in their mouth.
You’ll never feel safe. You’ll never be safe.
Promise.

Not to mention us Americans who would fight and sabotage for Canadian forces.
If a Canadian tank rolled down the street the next day, I would run out asking to go with them
You’re making it sound way harder than it is, The US has like 4? substations that if they all went down at once it would cascade fail about 90% of the grid, they aren’t in bunkers or surrounded by armed guards or anything, they’re random ass substations with chain link fences around them.
Canadian living in Colorado taking notes
Just a reminder to non-canadians that a core part of Canadian identity has always been not being American. It’s a quasi-colonized pov. Make it real and it will be life-or-death for many many folk.
We’re not always great a describing who we are, but we sure as fuck know who we are not.
Russia Ukraine vibes
Yep, I frequently hear people bitching about the state of things in Canada and someone almost always follows up with “eh it could be worse, at least we’re not murican”
Fuck murica.
Yeah, there would be war crimes.
I think that we Canadians would be more than happy to add to the Geneva checklist should it come to this.
doom music slowly increases in volume…
Hopefully the Canadians will team up with blue states and we can fight any war he tries inflicting on Canada. I am moving from Texas if we ever invade Canada, most likely Washington
dont worry, the Police , Red State Military, and Private Militias will already have arrested , put a gun to the head of, or straight up killed any potential blue state rebel figureheads before they make a move like invading Canada or Mexico.
this is black and white, a Fascist coup that has taken over America.
IEDs. Just sayin’.
The Geneva Convention did need an update
Geneva Checklist.
Gooning to a theoretical war is wild.
Please don’t view AMERICA as your enemy, just MAGA. They may be in control of the government at the moment, but they don’t control us.
Remember that HitlerPig’s following is only about 1/3 of the country, and they are breath-takingly stupid. MOST of Americans are your allies, and will happily fight alongside you to take both of our countries back from the Nazis.
I hear ya, and mean this with all due respect and just as a counterpoint.
I think the world, and especially Canada, aren’t wrong to expect Americans as a whole to not let it get to that point - democratically, seriously. We have been, happily and willingly, consuming an entire culture of freedom and defence against tyranny. Your news is our news, including all of the violence and rationalization of it - defence of freedom.
We know your massive protests and hard won civil rights because your media is our media just like your products are our bilateral lifelines.
If it gets to the point of invasion I think it’s fair to consider all of America having stabbed us in the back.
Edit: just to try and be lighter about it - it’s like we all took in your movies and books and documentaries but America themselves in a staggering ratio seem to have missed the point or identified the wrong protagonist.
If it gets to the point of invasion I think it’s fair to consider all of America having stabbed us in the back.
Please rethink that. MAGA represents a small and shrinking number of Americans. Many millions of us voted against them, and yet they used their nefarious resources to rig the election and take power. We have been stabbed in the back as much as you would be.
If the MAGA Nazis decide to invade Canada, you can double your forces by calling on the Patriotic Americans who want the Nazis out as much as you do.
AMERICA is not your enemy, MAGA is. Please remember that, we are on YOUR side, and want to assist you in defeating MAGA. If it comes down to an invasion of Canada, MAGA will have an Army, and Canada will have an Army, and the American Patriots will have motivated fighters who will enthusiastically assist the Canadian army to defend your sovereignty, and we are spread all over America. Make use of that valuable resource, and your defeat of MAGA will be much easier.
Yes, I was thinking a lot of us would be valuable in guerilla warfare. Which side would be taken by individuals depends on the individuals.
Guerilla warfare has been extremely effective against the US military for decades.
There are also a LOT of people still working within the government who do not support their current leadership. They can’t ALL be replaced by loyalists, and with every replacement they get weaker, and the Resistance gains another experienced insider.
Resistance Guerillas don’t all have to carry guns and be fighters. Those disgruntled federal employees are perfectly placed to cause all sorts of chaos, leaks, sabotage, weaponized incompetence, malicious compliance, etc. They will be as important to the fight as those willing to commit violence.
Just the South, and they have been the enemy of humanity for centuries, because they care far less about America than they do about their own racism, so much so that they went to war with America in the name of racism.
Ignorance and authoritarian sympathies aren’t drawn on an east west or north south basis anymore.
No, but they originated from the South.
I grew up in a lovely midwestern town, then nafta ended and the vile filth infested us and brought their crime and drugs with them, my town became a nightmare in 2 years.
The rest of the country didn’t want slavery, they didn’t want Jim Crow, they didn’t try to elect segregationists.
Our evil was very, VERY centralized, and it was our mistake for not dealing with them properly after the civil war and preventing their pestilence from spreading.
No, but they originated from the South.
FFS, how do you think Jim Crow ended?
If Southern anti-segregationists and civil rights groups had not stood firm against discrimination, Jim Crow would have never ended.
“Southerners” is not a synonym for ex-slaveowners and segregationists. Denigrating the entirety of the South for the actions of a few is gross.
Also, your remarks have lead me to believe that you seem to think racism simply never existed in the North, which is just an entirely laughable concept.
Some of the most violent resistance to the civil rights movement, was in Chicago, a lovely Midwestern town as you might put it.
If Southern anti-segregationists and civil rights groups had not stood firm against discrimination, Jim Crow would have never ended.
Please, the south stood firm for discrimination, they stood so firm the south switched parties en masse in reaction to civil rights.
Just like 100 years earlier the south had to be drug to decency at gunpoint.
Also, your remarks have lead me to believe that you seem to think racism simply never existed in the North, which is just an entirely laughable concept.
I am brown, and partly grew up in the south, and Midwest, and the coasts.
PLEASE!!! Lecture me on how racism is equal everywhere and not just massively and brutally expressed in the south.
I am DYING to hear how my experiences were all a lie.
Many of us have reason to hate the south, just like I’m sure a lot of Jews had bad feelings about the nazis.
And the nazis actually copied many of their policies from the south verbatim, particularly the Nuremberg Laws from Jim crow.
If the south had a single grain of decency and shame within them, they’d spontaneously combust, lucky for them they don’t.
A geographical region is not uniform in it’s beliefs. You can dislike an area without claiming everyone who lives there is evil.
It is idiotic (and fascistic) to say that the ENTIRE population of an ENTIRE geographic region are ALL demons. It’s simply not true.
If you grew up in the south, you are literally self-deprecating by saying such things.
Except those of us stuck here with no means of escape.
I’m sorry, it is unimaginable to be stuck there.
But the filth is no longer contained, it is destroying even the best parts of America and threatening to destroy the world.
This is now a question of self-preservation.
So many of us have friends and family across the border. We know American people are fellow humans like anyone else and that the enemy is MAGA fascism.
Any American I see traveling in Canada without a MAGA hat will be welcomed by me with open arms. Canadians have a degree of empathy for what you’re dealing with because we feel threatened by the fascist takeover too.
Canadians and Americans who give a damn about respecting peoples’ dignity, no matter their gender or race, will stand in solidarity.
Thanks, I appreciate that. We already have brutal enemies within our own country, we don’t need our neighbors hating us for the actions of those enemies. If America falls to the Maga Nazis, so will Canada. We have to band together to crush and purge them.
Every Soldier in the Wehrmact who was in Allied territory, was an enemy, regardless of his opinion of Hitler and the party
Every Soldier in the Russian Army, or shitbag Mercenary who is in Ukraine, is an enemy, regardless of their opinion of Putin and Russkiy Mir
Any American who decides to just go along with orders of an invasion of an allied country , will be treated as such. An illegal occupant, an enemy combatant, a legitimate target.
No matter how anyone wants to spin it. Soldiers have options, they may be thrown in the brig for insubordination, they may be forced to frag their officer and go AWOL. But choosing to just go along with your orders, Illegal or otherwise, is complicit guilt in the crime.
I’m not talking about an invading army. By all means, you should treat them with as much lethal force as you can muster. But the vast majority of Americans are as against that invading army as you are. Any American soldier who does not respond to orders to invade by defecting, is considered a MAGA traitor, and is fair game, by both Canada and American Patriots.
“Just following orders” is never a justification. Following illegal orders is illegal.
We’re waiting with bated breath.
We are, too. The tipping point is coming, but it is always impossible to predict how or when that will happen. But make no mistake, it WILL happen.
I love the energy. But if you’re gonna compare Canada to Vietnam I have to point out the obvious geographic and climate differences; along with its proximity and distance from the US.
Get nukes Canada. Seriously, how do you guys not have fucking nukes?
You might consider being the Cuba/USSR with China of this generation. Not even kidding.
We produce uranium. We can have nukes in 6 months if we want. In the meantime, we have France’s.
6 months is a long time. I’d get to work.
All I’ll say is I’ll be watching where fire bans are in effect if it ever comes to that.
Not to mention we are FINE with snow, cold and winter. That’s shorts & t shirt weather for us. Pussy Americans can suck balls.
Hey, just a lone Canuck on a 10 state fire season careless smoking tour of the wests national forests oughta do it. People forget that we’re largely upwind.
And upstream, but that’s a whole other level of sabotage.
Its funny, we use “eh” here in Australia but spell it “A” or “aye”. Wild how a letter can have an accent in text
How did Canada come up with its country name?
C “eh” N “eh” D “eh”
I’ll show myself out
Not everyone knows that “the Fonz” was Canadian.
The word means “Come meet the villagers” In native Algonquin tounge.
guys I think it’s important to remember that the lot of us do not support this idiot in fact a lot of his own supporters have been turning on him in waves he’s got the lowest approval rating of anyone and before you say but you voted him in our voting system is electoral based a lot of us did not vote him in a lot of us live in blue states you know what I mean like we do not support this guy we are a country over your 370 million people so I guess I just get tired of being grouped with all the a****** idiots who actually voted this guy in
So what actions have you taken? “Not supporting” can be pretty fucking passive, and I for one will absolutely keep lumping you in with the other assholes until it upsets you enough to do more than whine on the Internet about it.
Democracy is about more than just voting, especially in the US, where the vote is so weak and pathetic. The end of segregation wasn’t decided by any vote.
That’s not going to matter when the shooting starts.
Yeah sorry. If Americans invade Im not differentiating between who supported it and who didnt. You gonna die in a very unpleasant way.
A drunk and his goons just took over your bus and it’s headed right for a school, I get it, you didn’t do it! …even though everyone saw them standing on the curb with tommyguns and shitty fedoras before they boarded, but OK.
Whatever happens from this point on is entirely on you and yours, now, though. History is watching.
What cards does this nipple have? None.
Canada has freedom. America doesn’t anymore. Canadians are never going to agree to rolling back their rights and freedoms for a has been country headed by a fucking dictator wannabe. Canadians will die before anything like that comes to pass. Canada may be no match militarily, but now that Canadians are aware of the dangers … that won’t be the case forever. Unless of course they decide to invade Canada right now… Not likely.
Canada simply can’t afford to match America in conventional warfare. America has a more powerful military than the next 5 countries combined, and Canada isn’t one of those. Unconventional warfare, on the other hand. I can’t think of anything stupider than starting an unconventional war with a neighboring country with an incredibly long, weakly inhabited, border and a population that looks and sounds mostly like your own citizens. If even 1% of Canadians had a problem with that, there would be half a million insurgents that couldn’t be easily identified.
I’m gonna be brutally honest here: unless it’s possible to reverse climate change impacts, the US was always going to invade and annex Canada. Even if we had a string of only progressive Presidents leading up to that point. The southern half of our country is about to become agriculturally useless and nearly uninhabitable. The only place for the US to go is north.
Or, the southern part of the US dies the fuck off, and the average IQ of the US increases at the same time.
Did you notice even the last Top Gun movie had Tom Cruise dropping bombs and stealing planes from a country that looks VERY MUCH like Canada?
Hi, you’re not invading us. If you do - everyone dies. Canadians are extremely fucking petty. If we can’t have what belongs to us - no one is getting it. We’ll uranium the waterways, and burn our own power stations. We will burn our earth and torch the sky before Yanks take one square centimetre from us. You will see.
As an American, just let me know how I can help.
Depose your dictator.
Words are meaningless.
I absolutely support this response. The US shouldn’t be allowed to swing its military might around to extort or absorb its neighbors. That said, it absolutely will and I hope it pays dearly for it.
The US can flatten our cities in 5 mins but there’s a lot more to Canada besides the cities. We would torch it all before letting the fucking Yanks take it.
Many of us are already prepping for this circumstance. Just try…
Because the US is inherently a “murder and pillage” kind of nation, right? You’re certainly not saying things couldn’t be worked out in the long run between understanding and humane people, right?
The U.S. IS inherently a “murder and pillage” kind of nation, yes. It’s kind of the only thing we’ve ever done. If you’re from the U.S. (like me) and you keep asking yourself “how did we get here?” Or “what happened to the America of my youth”, then reading a little bit about history could be helpful. Or shit, talk to any Native about what their history, culture, language is, and then follow up with “What happened to them?”.
The United States of America is a failed experiment. It’s time to put it down.
My soul is rock hard after reading your reply. Having said that, I wish those who are more ignorant than evil could be saved from the coming shitstorm. 😔
Once again: not “Trump”. It’s “Republican Party” planning and doing all this
“In fact, we don’t want them to make cars for us. We want to make our own cars. We don’t need their lumber. We don’t need their energy. We don’t need anything from Canada. And I say the only way this thing really works is for Canada to become a state.”
So he DOES need things from us. If he didn’t need us he’d just walk away and not trade with us. But why would he he want us as a state if we didn’t have something he wanted?
He DOES need us, our workers, and our resources but he doesn’t like that we’re our own sovereign nation. He needs us but he wants us enslaved and controlled.
I like to idly game this out because it truly reflects how narcissistic and uninformed he is. So, he’s talking about admitting Canada as a single state. Lets assume somehow that happens, even though the Canadians themselves would undoubtedly push for as many states as possible if joining the US were the only option.
You’ve now got a new largest state by both population and area, and one that has ridiculous reserves of resources and a coast-to-coast infrastructure. It instantly becomes the most important state. It’s also full of millions of people who didn’t want to be Americans and who’ve had a hundred years of more progressive governance than the US. Congratulations, Republicans, you’ve just skewed the Senate and completely fucked yourself in the House for a generation or more. You’ve also got 8 or 9 million Francophones who weren’t even entirely sure they wanted to be CANADIANS, much less Americans, to say nothing of being Americans in a MAGA world. This is how real troubles begin.
So, in return for dubious “improvements” to the trade deficit, and certain (what?) administrative conveniences (I guess) for a military that already had basically all the access anyone would ever need, as well as a giant buffer territory you’re not politically committed to defending with the same gusto you would your own soil, you completely upset the balance of power in Congress to your own party’s detriment and add a huge population that hates their situation. Brilliant.
Although, I guess if you’re just done with free and fair elections then a lot of these concerns evaporate…
This is how real troubles begin.
Echos of Ireland.
We’d be joined through the Puerto Rico route, as a territory. No representation. The 51 state is just a ruse to get the 17th territory, or whatever the number is.
Yeah, I guess just assuming ill intent and fascism makes it a simpler discussion that’s still perfectly reasonable.
I’m so fucking tired of Americans saying shit like “omg Canada as the 51st state would totally skew our elections Democrat, get owned Trump!”
The reality is, in any scenario where Canada gets annexed by the US, American democracy will not exist anymore by then. Even if there are fake elections, we’d most likely not be allowed to vote (à la Puerto Rico, as you point out).
I do appreciate someone pointing out how utterly enraged us Francophones would be if subjected to US rule.
Doesn’t matter. He wants Canada because it is big on the map and if America had it then America would look bigger on the map and if it was at its biggest when Trump was president that would mean Trump was the best US president ever in every history book for all time. Same thing with Greenland.
I do unironically believe the Mercator projection has influenced how much he talks about Greenland.
In school I remember them teaching us that it had a psychological effect that we think Northern countries are more important than Southern ones because they’re bigger and on top and I am totally 100% on board with that line of thought
You’re not wrong. It looks so much bigger than the 2.1m sq km that it is. In fact, it’s 100k smaller than the Democratic Republic of the Congo. When you look at a Mercator map, Greenland looks comparable to the entire continent of Africa.
It’s actually useful to note that Canada+USA together (19.8 sq km) is bigger than Russia (17m sq km) by about an India (3m sq km), but still short of the former USSR (22m sq km). But add in Greenland (2.3)? Now you’ve got the biggest country that ever existed.
You’re right, making an America that is the largest country on earth is precisely what his ego is after.
I have the incredible, uncontrollable urge to shout, “Gulf of Mexico!” suddenly.
Make sure you talk about this stuff and how unacceptable it is in public.
I ain’t going to El Salvador
How is election security in Canada? There was fuckery in the last presidential election here, and I don’t doubt they’ll try it in Canada too.
Christopher Tidus just did two hour and a half long podcasts with a guest. He never has guests. The guest is a veteran that has teamed up with a data analyst and a computer geek. They have the data. The election was stolen. They used every single method from kicking voters off the eligible elector list, to vote switching, to ballot box stuffing. The election was a sham that shows a clear Russian Tail.
Commenting for later viewing.
Honestly? I know who Chris Titus is. Never figured he’d not be a Trump supporter. Know nothing about him really, and I guess my impression of him was completely wrong. So…uhmmmmm…cool! Thanks for sharing!
I’m about 10 minutes into the first part. And, yeah, this is really really…idfk…fuck. Thanks. I’m really glad you shared this.
Edit:
The “mildly tangential ranting” on this comment I made yesterday I think is kinda relevant to this…if only tangentially…
I refer to him as a left leaning Dennis Leary. I can understand why you’d think he was right leaning. He’s got the “middle aged white man funny rant” style of comedy down pat.
I remember his network show and stand up specials, always been a fan
This guy seems like he might know what he’s talking about but is there a version that isn’t a 3 hour video?
Like an article or something?
https://electiontruthalliance.org/eta
That’s the organization that the guy founded. You can find a fair bit there.
Thanks to Elections Canada it’s actually a lot better than the states. We also get answers sooner. There’s nothing like an American election to make Canadians thankful for Elections Canada.
Yeah, our Elections Canada is quite solid.
The influencing of support for our right-wing party endorsed by Elon Musk/Trump/Jordan Peterson via X, Facebook, and campaign financing is the real issue imo.
Wait wait, I’ve seen this one before!
He’s so eloquent when he speaks, like listening to a butterfly’s wings wafting over a boiling toilet
Yes he is. It’s the sleight of hand you’re supposed to be watching while the other one is in your pocket looking for everything you’ve got.
It’s trolling til it’s not. He plants seeds and they fester in our angry wounds and suddenly it becomes the cure.
Truly the dumbest timeline
This didn’t work out well for the US last time.
