    Again, they can clean their own backyard. We have our own problems which you have cited regarding sympathetic Canadian assets.

    If you want to say it is not 1812 and we don’t have British Empire support, you cannot ignore the fact that we have far more in way of support from other countries than we did back then.

    In regards to sanctions, those have been in place long before Trump and he isn’t waiting around and taking it slow. He is openly threatening Sovereign nations, and Territories, with military force including NATO allies. He is not going to wait to break economies for 20 years. The real threat is force, and ignoring it to talk Economics is a waste of time.
