Does anybody have the remotest notion why trump said he was going to send troops? Apparently he changed his mind, but why would he have done it to begin with?Because he's a dumbass. Zero Canadians want to sneak into a country which is the planetary hot zone, and where you have to PAY for healthcare.

What? I'm the only one who heard trump say he was putting troops on the Canadian border? I'm the only one who thought it was a nutso notion? I'm the only one who read Trudeau's response? Nobody else even gave this a thought? I posted about it. Remember? This is only Canadian they're bound to catch crossing illegally at the border.

I think it's because we said we are going to stop the asylum seekers from crossing into Canada. We've been pretty lax about it up until now.

FWIW: I wouldn't be surprised if Trump took something he heard in the White House about giving some 'military personal' a 'safe' job as far away from Covid19 risk as possible and perhaps this entailed jobs along the Canadian border.
I'm pretty sure we all know the relatives/kids/friends of important people in the government and military can get special treatment from pressure applied by their "important people" relatives. I'm am NOT complaining about this. Just stating that it has happened in the past and I'm sure it still happens.

What's your point? You think what the USA does, doesn't affect Canada? From steel tariffs to NAFTA to this idiocy....I should just shut up? In your dreams. Feel free to complain to the mods.

From steel tariffs to NAFTA to this idiocy....I should just shut up? In your dreams. I think it's mentally healthier for hats to focus on how they can be the best hat possible and find ways to find meaning in being a hat. It's not healthy for a hat to always be wishing it was the head instead. If all the hat ever does is complain about the haircut it's covering, it'll never be happy. "It's a country I used to live in"...yes, it's your ex. Your obsession with your ex is unhealthy, even if your family and friends still hang out with them. The goal when you see your ex out at a bar should be to continue on with your life, not thirst after it obsessively.

Neither are you, with the thirsty chick at a bar analogy. When the mods tell me to stop posting here, I will. Until them...... I'll post whenever and however the fuck I want. Have a good day, sir.

Now, now, clearly you two have had too much together time during this pandemic - please go to your separate rooms until you can be civil to each other!
-----this is the talk I gave my kids yesterday; today they are playing together so well I'm worried that they may be conspiring against me. Even my husband noticed LOL.

You can post anything you want, just like you can facebook stalk an ex until the end of time. That doesn't mean it's healthy behavior. Why would a mod tell you stop posting? You're among the 5 funniest posters to read when you're really off the mental rails and ranting. It's just that at some points, it feels like someone has the responsibility to at least tell you when your thirst has gone into another realm. At that point it feels fine to sit back and watch the thirsty chick stalking her ex and enjoy the show. It's funny when you're facebook stalking your ex...it's less funny when your ex consumes all your mental energy to the point you're making a fool of yourself publicly. "I don't want my ex back, but let me spend all of my time and energy stalking them to show them how much I don't want them" lol. You're not fooling anyone here kid.

If any other country had such a stupid, infantile, boorish, incompetent leader as ours, who spent so much of their time f****** up the rest of the world as he does, you can bet we'd be commenting. That is true even though they would actually have little effect on our day-to-day lives as Americans. The U.S. dwarfs Canada, both in population and in economic and cultural effect. What this country does has an effect on Canadians. Why should they not be speaking out?
There is a very easy way to make Canadians stop criticizing our government. Stop giving them so many f****** reasons to criticize our government! Donald Trump is the worst president in history and one of the worst leaders in the developed world. It is not just this country who deserves better. The world deserves better, and they have every right to say so.

If Canadians aren't allowed to post on a thread about another nation placing their armed forces on our joint border, what the fuck do people in the United States think Canada should be allowed to post about. Seriously, fight with Weltz on thread that doesn't directly affect Canada.

FINALLY someone addresses Weltschmerz' constant and ongoing snarky comments against the U.S. Always getting the digs in - been going on FOREVER. It's like the north visiting and making friends with the south, then slamming the south. I mean really? If you don't like the U.S., why are you here on this board, where the MAJORITY are from the U.S., giving us CRAP all the time and spreading your hatred regarding our country? Like, WTH? It's rude, unwarranted, doesn't make you look good, and you kinda sound envious. I don't see posters slamming your country, so knock it off. It doesn't make Canadians look good.

My "hatred" pertains only to Trump and his ignorant followers. I'm not saying anything worse than other democratic Americans on here. If it bothers you so much, snowflake, put me on ignore. Problem solved!

I'm damned upset with trump too. He is worthless and what he is doing to this country is horrible and its effecting the whole world in a bad way.
You don't bother me at all. And if Canada wasn't so cold it would probably be a better choice. I'm like hubs he said the world probably forgave us one like bush. Then we vote in one like trump, if he gets in again we think the world will stop looking up to us and believe we really follow something like that. I'm so upset over him it drives me crazy at times. I cannot believe we have an incompetent, stupid, crazy person like him as president.

There are countries out there where the leaders are committing full on human atrocities...we don't see threads on them at all. When's the last time you saw people en masse starting threads on China's leadership and the way they treat humans? But if you do want to comment, it should at least bear some semblance to fact. This poster spends pretty much all their posts with "I hate the US...why? Because they suck and I hate them." And then cries anytime someone disagrees with their nonsensical ramblings. In fact, anytime facts are brought up, the poster pretends not to see them. And anytime they are pressed for facts, they change topics lol. There's a difference between making factual arguments, and people who are bitter and jealous.

Seriously, fight with Weltz on thread that doesn't directly affect Canada. It's actually a thread about how they are NOT going to send troops to the border. So...nothing is happening. That's precisely what this poster does...starts threads about nothing because they just want to whine and moan. And I said nothing, until that same poster got her panties in a twist when someone responded to them.
