    VR46 China don’t want war, of any kind. Xi has said this a couple of times. When everyone was talking about nukes it was Xi that de escalated the situation

        VR46 I hope 303 wouldn’t be a deserter

        I’ve never even held a gun, but if the US actually tried to invade Canada (which I would like to assume is very unlikely), I’d learn guerrilla warfare that day.

              303abuser Ask someone who knows someone in Hamas…. They’re the current masters at it.

                  VR46 I think the world views Canada as being no different than the states, but we’re culturally different. Far more of a multi-cultural society, which lends to being less overtly patriotic, but when the shit hits the fan, we’ll all stand up to defend our country. Canada has a rich history of standing by our allies in major conflicts, along with peacekeeping missions.

                    Dan Pretty much. The Americans don’t have a great record invading foreign soil and much like Napoleon and Hitler found out trying to invade Russia, winter is a bitch.

                          303abuser Agreed.
                          Kudos to the Russian’s as every man and woman fought like dogs for their country.

                            Yeah, scorched earth is one hell of a policy.

                              Homegrove So far the unemployment has skyrocketed, as has people on welfare. And we also have homeless people now, which has never really been an issue here.

                              Giving in to Putin is a similar solution.

                              This is a remarkable piece of political analysis.

                                  bosstrabs I very much doubt anyone would come for me for political analysis, nor should they.

                                      Its hilarious watching Trump fumble about because he boxed himself in as the self styled greatest deal maker in history. His 2 weapons, tariffs and bullying, and hes failed at both so far. A reporter aaked him how he was going to shield consumers from price gouging if he continues with the tariff fiasco, his response, attack Biden for not getting any DEALS done. He’s in way over his head, a conman like this will get found out pretty quickly when it comes to high level diplomacy, evidence of which we’ve just witnessed.

                                      Definitely not a conflict of interest though.

                                      Anyone surprised he’s cut off military aid? No. Thought not. I’m sure funky will have a wonderful excuse for this around how it ‘forces Zelensky to the table’ or some such bollocks. The most excruciating part is Trump is still polling relatively well inside the insulated mess that is America.

                                        All of this could have been avoided if Zelensky had said thank you.

                                        Millsy the deal with Putin is already done - Zelensky has put a fly in the ointment by not playing ball - it’s so painfully obvious and set up. That Friday press confeeence was like something from Jerry Springer
