Yeah… but we need a much bigger navy 🤣 Canadian Navy is about 8,400 sailors; the US Coast Guard alone is nearly 45,000, with US Navy at 500,000 😬
I would really like to see the Carney government bolster Canadian military, but ALSO get NATO assets on-shore. But that’s just my tin-foil hat talking.
Russia has been sending their troops in North Korea. I think we are safe from a few men who want to rule the world by plundering it for resources. The Law of Nature has been speaking up. All the denied FEMA claims can verify this. We are in the thick of FAFO season.
Pfft. Shows what you know. If they don't get in on the deal soon, they'll be outside of the dome, and any missiles that are aimed at us will bounce off it, right into Winnipeg.
Carney knows Trump isn’t gonna love long enough to see his silly dome leave the planning phase. He’s literally jingling a shiny object to keep Trump occupied.
Well, the Golden Dome is basically rewarmed SDI or "Star Wars", so it's supposed to be for protection from ICBMs and such. If such protection were actually feasible, then Canada might be interested. Emphasis on the "if", though.
Canadians are famously respected worldwide, why would they feel the need to pay for a missile defense system, unless of course this is some protection racket from the new mafia US gov
How does the system work without the Distant Early Warning line of radars in Canada? They are how any missile from Russia, China, or North Korea can be detected.
Honestly Trump should be begging that our largest land border isn't a bunch of mounties saying "yeah fuck'em go ahead" to whatever enemy wants access to the US
Sorry for plugging here I’m trying to reach out to allys for any possible support, i desperately need to get my sickle cell medication I’ve been sick and can’t work without it. I can verify whatever needed, pls be kind obviously im desperate and have no other options 💔
Guaranteed that any missile coming into Canada is coming from the US since they’re the only country to ever try to invade us or threaten to invade us
Asking the US protect us is like asking the fox to protect the henhouse
#ElbowsUp
The whole "you need our protection" thing always reminded me of the mafia goons shaking down the bodega owner for money to protect his shop from the mafia goons.
Just like time the US invaded Mexico to protect the Confederate immigrants into Texas upset that they couldn’t have slaves because Mexico abolished slavery more than 10 years before. Yeah US protection had never been reliable for any country in this side of the world. Imperialism Yankee
And domestic violence cases as well. An abuser husband proclaiming he’s “protecting” his wife when he — and other men — are the person committing the very acts of violence necessitating protection.
Then it’s just East to West wind currents after the strike. Jet stream has been pretty odd mostly pushing the Canada cold down on the states so possibly no concerns.
The only entities we need protection from in Canada are Russia because it's just above us over the curve of the Earth. And the United fucking States under fucking Trump.
Plus the "cherished" crap is a tell. His plan is to make us a territory like American Samoa. His minions have said so.
Just look at how he “cherishes” American states. He denied DEMA funding and goes after them. Even those that voted for him. You will not be cherished and you’ll just be abused like us.
Until you get rid of him and the rest of the MAGA idiots, I want the CBSA to take a long hard look at your passport, criminal record, trunk of your car, bags, and your travel plans.
Sorry but we have to be careful.
It's almost like we cocked up what was objectively a fantastic relationship because our president is an imperialist brute who wanted to annex our trusted neighbors.
We pretty much were, between NAFTA and an open border; until Bush II decided The Terrorism™ meant the border had to close, and then Trump decided to upend the trade agreements.
Do you remember Reagan’s Star Wars Program? I can’t begin to guess if he was serious, but the end result was a $60-$100 billion boondoggle. I guess it supported arms manufacturers during a rare period of few ground wars. Let’s don’t do that again.
Just like the scumbag that paved the way for him...another senile old man and his multimillion dollar Star Wars defense system that was just a handout to defense contractors.
clearly trump never read stephen kings book “under the dome”… well, it’s not a pop up book, so of course he didn’t. as if he did, he’d realize that a domed environment NEVER bodes well. and we will all die.
This fuckin’ buffoon is putting crap like this out there because he’s desperately trying to convince his band of moronic followers that this is the truth. His very existence is one big lie, and it’s so sad that people are so gullible to believe this bullshit!
No, while you're right that Canada will never join the USA, we are not part of the "British Commonwealth" or any empire. We are an independent country. We are an equal member of the Commonwealth of Nations (equal to Britain and all other members). The King has no say in what we do as a country.
Exactly. It is not the British Commonwealth anymore. It's a Commonwealth of Nations. The King is head of the Commonwealth, but almost all member countries has removed the monarchy as their Heads of State, as I hope Canada will do one day.
It is a club of countries that is increasingly irrelevant as most members share very little common values with Canada. India, one of the most prominent members of the Commonwealth sent assassins to kill a Canadian on Canadian soil and the Commonwealth did nothing. Not even a statement. We can leave.
The King is the Head of State of Canada. I dislike that immensely, but we have to understand that he is the King of Canada here, and not the King of Britain. We have chosen to retain the monarchy to be our Head of State, but it's the Canadian monarchy here. Dumb as it is.
King Charles has no say in what Canadians or the the Canadian government decide to do with our country. We are not part of an Empire anymore. We deal with Britain on an equal basis and we are completely independent.
Canada is a Federal Parliamentary Constitutional Monarchy.
I suspect King Charles influence is minor if at all. He probably chooses to stand back completely. However, if you have another nation attempting to usurp one of his, he's going to be involved. He'll have a big say.
He won't have much to say at all. He says what the PM says and he stays out of the political fray. I don't oppose him making the Throne Speech today but it wasn't that important. Canada can stand up with its true allies. The EU is a lot more relevant to Canada these days.
For instance, a monarch would call it an Greement, or Mutual Agreement. Never such a crude term such as deal. King Charles knows he's dealing with a low information cretin who just wants 'deals' he won't stand behind anyway.
Not quite. The King is only a titular head of state. In reality, he has no decision-making powers and can only offer moral support if allowed to do so by the British PM.
I’d like to see the abolition of the monarchy, for a stack of reasons but I’ve been genuinely amused to watch Charles meeting with Zelenskyy straight after the debacle with Trump, and his comments on his Canada trip. I think we can clearly infer what he thinks of Trump.
Trump, being a deluded misogynist bore and bloviating piece of shit, said some pretty crass things about Princesses Diana (Stern interview) and Catherine (paparazzi/Closer pictures).
What Charles (and his sons) think of Trump requires decidedly "unroyal" language to articulate.
At least you can watch from next door. We have to watch him destroy our country and our relations with other countries, and all the selfish deadbeats who are supposed to be representing us fold up like a cheap suit and send "strongly worded letters" while they vote against our best interests.🙄
No means no. Period.
Canada's looking into F-35 contract, since US isn't a reliable allie anymore. That's after protecting US for decades, since being the buffer zone between USSR/Russia & US. RCAF was chasing Migs in the Canadian Arctic, in the 1970's-1980's. Red star on the tail, couldn't miss it.
Sweden even took time to Photoshop a Canadian flag on their ad. Gripen does look good & it's probably built to withstands Canadian winter better than F-35. Who'd trust US electronics, when a kill switch - like on its stealth mode feature - can be part of the package? https://hushkit.net/2025/03/14/f-35-versus-gripen-e-a-deep-deep-dive/
Look, the fool doesn’t know when no means No!
Maybe if we moon the stupid arsehole when he shows up for G7 next month, stretching arse cheeks apart to reveal depth of feeling, so that he understands it better as a visual representation of his own arsehole self?
[apologies for extreme crudity!]
I’m starting to think the adjudicated rapist, with countless rape allegations and an ex-wife who testified under oath that he beat and raped her, has a hard time understanding the word “no.”
Well, they might be considering renting US the sites for radar installations in the arctic (without which is the system dysfunctional and useless) for 65 billion ...
The universal language is "fuck off". Donnie, fuck off, fuck all the way off, keep fucking off until you are at the end of the earth. And then fuck off some more. Asshole
I don't believe we did. I'd like to know why trump keeps bragging about Elon getting the election for him because "he's a genius with computers." The DOGE boys are all hackers.
I blame the media. They didn’t have to give him the attention. And of course the republicans are so power hungry that they waived the requirement of participating in the debates for the fascist.
Don't forget to blame the Democratic party. Without their mistakes and their misjudgement if who their voters are and what they wanted he would had 0% chance.
But when their candidate openly calls their core demographic a "basket of deplorables", even Donald Trump can manage to win.
What. Clinton called the paranoid racists who make up what she generously called “50 percent” of Trump voters deplorables. She was being kind. This is entirely the voters fault. Treating them like children and blaming Democrats for Republican actions is dumb.
I don’t think anyone wants to bomb us specifically but we might want to shield ourselves from those who want to bomb the US from the north because we’re in the way and don’t want to catch shit aimed at our neighbours. XD
But tbh the US should fucking pay us for acting as a northern line of defense.
If I were Canada, I would reject the offer. If Trump wants to build a golden dome for the USA, fine. If it also helps out Canada, than we are magnanimously assisting our neighbor to the north.
I’m stuck here and keep waiting for the same thing. I think he’s made some kind of pact with the devil to never die. However, we have lots of guns and lots of violent people here, so….
Tell the orange plug to take it out of the US debt that Canada is carrying (to the tune of 378B) for his golden dome idea. And otherwise, trump can F himself... his inflammatory words are going to hurt the US economy more than they will Canada's.. because we aren't buying US products anytime soon.
Maybe Canada should consider $97b/yr for their crude oil to the U.S. is way too low. Add another $61b/yr to that and let’s see how Cheetolini responds.
The same people that came up with his tariff numbers are the people that put together the projected budget for this Golden Dome. Straight out of someone's ass. It can't be built at any price. More like Golden Showers.
And for you my friend, 61 Billion dollars (American). Cash up front. Any you will get to attend a dinner with the President himself. For another million. You know where he can put his Golden Dome and his 51st statehood.
The Golden Dome is a golden fraud. It envisions a technology that can't be built at any price. Don't get gaslighted by anyone who says they need Canada to build this dome. It is Reagan's SDI all over again but with more corruption. The numbers are coming out of someone's ass.
Fan fiction: The only "offer" Canada is considering is adding the IS West Coast, Northeast area &, NM, CO, MN & IL as CANADIAN provinces. Greenland gets the second pick in the US draft.
If Trump & Co won't follow the Constitution, the US might as well dissolve. He can be president of nothing.
“Donald Canada”. Looks almost exactly like the fugly guy in his mirror. Has all the best ideas. He gets a little fuzzy without enough Adderall, but he doesn’t complain about the constant poo smell around Trump like everyone else does. Really, his best and closest friend.
😍🪞🤩
Prime Minister Mark Carney signalled he hopes Canada will be able to sign on to a major European defence rearmament plan by July 1, a step toward reducing the country's dependency on the United States for weapons and munitions.
I also think at this point you guys and Europe should work together more in all fields from science to Defence and trade. The remaining countries with reasonable leaders should work together. Greetings from Europe 🇪🇺 🇩🇪
With this criminal administration our enemies won’t be targeting Canada or anyone else because the Felon President is causing ever other country to look for alternative agreements with other countries .
Trump really is a delusional idiot. He probably believes if he keeps saying something then it must be true. Why the F would Canada ever want to be a state with him as their president?
He knows that if he keeps saying a lie eventually preppie start to believe it. It’s from the authoritarian playbook. Check it out. Everything he says is like that. Even the year of the deadly influenza, he got that wrong too. Over and over again.
I think Trump is actively gas-lighting Canada, trying to build a case that our neighbor to the north is desperate to be included in the Golden Dome fairytale. Nice try, Donald but you fell face-down over your attempt to goad Canada into the American diaspora.
I guess dumbass trump didn't get the Settle hint from King Charles . The Royal Highness King Charles will have to draw trump a picture he can understand .

Aware Canada ditched theirs.👍🏼
Men especially hate coins.
Waiting behind a person, always an older woman, slowing poking through her coin purse blows my blood pressure.
After a day shopping in Canada I have over $10 of your $1 & $2 coins.
Lol. Likely not an issue for us, and I can't speak for everyone, but I haven't used cash in 10 years. I have one exception. I'll take a roll of toonies out of the bank to give them to the transit buskers. With inflation, I may be switching that to 5s, though.
That was back of the envelope but it should make the point
Provincial debt is generally higher than US States
DEM states NY & MA have better economies & services, esp education & higher debt than GOP states
Why would any sane person want to be “annexed” by the US now?
Donald runs our national interests defense establishment like “an outer-boroughs mafia don” protection racket. He is not a smart man. And he’s mentally defective.
I don't believe that for one minute. The U.S. doesn't a golden dome and Canada doesn't need one either and I think they know it. I bet he tried to get them to pay us for one and they turned him down.
Darth Syphillis is too stupid to realise that people see through all of his BS. He doesnt even have such a system in place but now plays as if the US will protect Canada as long as they submit.
I will be this system doesnt even get off the ground as the US already has air defence systems.
Maybe "golden dome" is code for "donny's head" and he's just going to keep filling it up with hot air until it's so big there is no other target remaining for these theoretical enemies.
I guess he wasn’t impressed with King Charles opening the new Canadian Parliament.
The United Kingdom already has a king. They don’t need wannabe king Trump.
I hope they tell him to fuck all the way off. But in a nice Canadian way. They could insult him but make it sound like a compliment & he would have no idea. Not like he has a brain cell left in his body anyway.
You know, it used to be that we could tell someone to F off in a polite way, but it doesn’t matter with Dementia Don. The filter in his pea brain is always set to the “I’m not listening “ mode.
They need a different tactic. At his face & pointing directly at him would be more effective. He’s the dullest pencil in the bunch. The other MAgas aren’t exactly sharp either.
It will soon start to happen economically in the US. Still running on Biden Fumes! Things about to change! Best way to hurt a Yank is in Their Wallets! 🍊💩🤡
No we're not! Give your head a shake Trump! Canada doesn't need you! We might need the people in America. But not you. I Love the United States and I Always will. Dream On Trump! Canada Will Never Ever be the 51st State! I Like To Dedicate This Song To Donald Trump: https://youtu.be/JojwHc1MKag?si=y0tn4KRD_QzqPrwR

His ENTIRE strategy in business is to threaten to do the worst possible thing so they'll agree to a "less bad" deal
Everything is a shakedown with him. Sad.
Plus the "cherished" crap is a tell. His plan is to make us a territory like American Samoa. His minions have said so.
But it would be on brand to say in a deadpan way "I'll consider that offer" meaning "holy shit that is the dumbest thing I have ever heard"🤭
But with our nutjobs in charge, I wouldn't wish it upon you.
Sorry but we have to be careful.
Then this shit.
I don't expect to see closer ties anytime soon.
We are going to go our own way.
We, Canadians, ought to instead prioritize welcoming U.S. political refugees — and informal refugee migration here has already begun.
He is pathetic and grasping. He is so jealous with King Charles in Canada right now.
The dumbest man alive.
What a classless, tasteless, gaudy-ass bitch of a president
No one wants your fake dome boondoggle.
The military defense budget is almost a trillion dollars a year for the last 15 yrs.
The draft dodger in the White House has figured out a way to steal from that fund. A Golden Dome.
He couldn't be more full of s*it.

She called decades long blue states a basket of deplorables, didn't she?
People are not a basket?
Even if you didn't get it, it seemed they did.
Oh, and it probably did not help they didn't even campaign much there.
Not like they are destroying the World Environment, World Economy or turning into a FASCIST DICTATORSHIP.
