Canada is like Austria in 1938, watching the huge country on their border circle the drain.

If anyone ever asks me why I care, it's because history repeats itself. Anschluss anyone?

1. I hope a plurality of Canadians are smart enough to stop the contagion at the border.

2. Austrians

Austria a had many cultural ties with the Germans, and welcomed them with open arms.

3. We have our share of rightwing nuts up here (We call them Maplemaga) but their numbers are around 15%

People are stupid everywhere.

4. It is more likely that some US states would secede or join Canada rather than any part of Canada joining US. . . . nt

[Fiendish Thingy]

5. Any Anschluss across the 49th parallel will result in a whole lot of dead American troops

Canada may not be able to defeat an American invasion militarily, but Canadians can and will kill American occupiers until the last one leaves Canadian soil.

We would make the troubles in Ireland look like a tea party.

That’s why it’s not going to happen - Trump knows he would be impeached and removed when thousands of Red State troops start coming home in body bags,

6. Well, Trump has been trying to annex Canada...

but Canada seems to have the upper hand there.

[newdeal2]

7. There is a MAGA and racist element in Canada

UK and Europe too. Don’t fool yourselves.
