Canada isn’t the mighty hero everyone (including Canadians, including myself) want us to be. We do push back already. We are trying to be a leader in resistance and doing everything we reasonably can to undermine this evil movement. But if we push back too hard and too directly against them, we will get stomped. The things that have been going on make me worried we may get occupied eventually anyway no matter what we do, they’ve already started building the case and making the noises.
Canada is tough enough that we have traditionally, and figure we still can, get away with poking the bear on a regular basis, as long as we don’t poke any sensitive areas or cause any real damage. And we do, and it aggravates them, and that’s probably fine, and when they swing back at us they leave us with a few scars we are justifiably proud of and maybe a little resentful for and life goes on. But that’s as far as we can go. If we ever start knifing them instead of just poking, targeting sensitive areas and causing actual wounds, they are going to kill us with a single swipe of their claws and there will be no more scars just a casket, “Here lies Canada, who thought their vast territory and vast resources and plucky determination would protect them forever from being a constant aggravation to the biggest military and economy on Earth”.
It’s all in good fun as long as they also think it’s good fun. Now that we know they don’t, we’re just handing them more reasons to turn against us. We need to stop acting like we’re invulnerable. We aren’t, we’re actually extremely vulnerable.
