Full political and economic support of the US’s invasion? Not even ruling out Canadian military involvement in the future? Oh sorry, “regrettable” full support. Like that makes it okay. As a Canadian, Canada’s response to this has been disgusting. And especially ironic for a country whose sovereignty the US is also threatening, but I’m sure if you help the leopard hunt other prey they won’t turn around and eat your face after.
In what way is Canada supporting the invasion other than saying “you do you” so that we don’t have to deal with Trumps idiotic tariff war and petty threat bullshit again? What exactly has Canada done so far that has been disgusting? Like actual examples or articles, something.
Canada and every other Western country should be raising hell over this and isolating the US for its unprovoked invasion of another country. Canada got so high and mighty about sanctioning Russia for Ukraine, what makes this different? God forbid you expect moral standards your country has been on a high horse about for the last several years to be equally applied to the West.
Buddy if things worked like that, we wouldn’t live in a shithole of a world. Wake up dude, putin has been invading ukraine for 4 years, there’s solid proof of thousands of pedos and likely nothing will happen to the majority of them, whistleblowers get disappeared. You think Carney is going to say “nah bruh that’s not chill” and Trump will respond with “aigh dawg, I see your point”?
So are you saying Canada shouldn’t be sanctioning Russia because it hasn’t stopped the war in Ukraine? If not, what makes it okay for Canada to not sanction the US? How are the situations different where one warrants sanctioning yet me even suggesting sanctioning the other is a sign that I’m an idiot who needs to “wake up?” Also, spare me the “wake up” talk in general, we live in this shithole world because the most powerful countries in the world are in a cabal where they ignore each other’s atrocities while claiming to be a bastion of human rights. And no, I don’t think we can just magically solve it by talking it out, which is why I’m calling for sanctioning and economic/political isolation of the perpetrator because that is the step after talking. Canada and other Western governments went on record to say that part of the goal of sanctioning Russia is to make it as hard as possible for them to function in general, and by extension making the war effort difficult. Regardless of whether that works in practice, that’s not even a possibility being considered for one of the West’s own. Why?
The point isn’t that Carney can fix it, but that they’re not interested in actually opposing the US despite his recent speech on US imperialism. We get it, your economy is extremely tied to the US and you’d be hit hard if you actually took a stance, but Iran is being bombed because they took a stance, Venezuela got their president kidnapped for taking a stance, and so on. Not opposing imperialism is obviously the path of least resistance, but it doesn’t make it the path we should be taking, considering people die every day for this bs even in peacetime.
Cut off the oil supply. The US is a wasteful shithole that blows through 20 million barrels/day, but only produces 13. The majority of the rest comes from Canada.
Do you know what happens after that? Trump eases sanctions on Russian oil, exactly like he did last week to ease the oil crisis they’re having now. The difference is if Canada outright cuts the states off then Trump would be spouting his stupid 51st state bullshit again. So what’s the next move after oil?
They could stop being yet another oppressive western nation and discontinue bending over for Trump/the US. This isn’t new behavior, Canada’s a removed.

You’re either young or delusional
Alright if you think so
This is what people say to cope when they know deep down they’re siding with their own selfish imperial-aligned interest over the good of humankind.
Lol no, this is what people say when they have lived long enough to understand the world has always been broken
Mystical-sounding fatalist claptrap that falls apart under scientific scrutiny

Tell me realistically, what can Canada do to stop Trump?
