9/11: 🇨🇦 protected 🇺🇸 (40k troops)

Since 1954, 🇨🇦 protected countries around the world (125k troops)

Trump: "Canada has been very bad to us on trade, but now Canada is gonna have to start paying up ... they think we're gonna protect them, with our military, which is unfair ... Canada is gonna be a very serious contender to be our 51st state."

The convicted felon has lost his credibility again and again. But then his track record shows he has been a loser all his life and now the president?

fieryone4.bsky.social•8 days ago

So we’ve been helping build their military?

maryfernando.bsky.social•8 days ago

Yes. And he wants more of our money and to build up his military while threatening to overtake us with that military. 🫠

*coughs* Maybe it's time Canada enforce borders? I dunno, Canada could always push that border west... https://www.nationalgeographic.com/culture/article/grey-zone-disputed-border-us-canada-news

Canada needs to increase military spending to protect itself from its crazy southern neighbor. We receive no "subsidies" from the US. Americans buy our products because they're better. No one forces them to buy Canadian products. Stop the whining Don.

jasonvantaco.bsky.social•8 days ago

We're in NATO.

maryfernando.bsky.social•8 days ago

Yes. And we have article 5 and 8.

I wrote about that.

The only thing Canada needs protecting from is the United States.

Canada understands the mission

maryfernando.bsky.social•8 days ago

2/ more #misinformation stating that, for Canada to become the 51st state, Congress must approve it - Congress has no jurisdiction over 🇨🇦

So, Canadians please call out all misinformation including that we will go along with whatever inane things Trump says.

3/ Thank you @markcarneyforpm.bsky.social for correcting this #misinformation

Trump pretends we need to spend more to defend ourselves while he really wants us to hand him more money.

Buying the weapons we can't build here from Europe would likely help increase our trading relationship.

maryfernando.bsky.social•8 days ago

💯 or also build them in Canada - we have to start doing that, too.

jason500550.bsky.social•8 days ago

I think we should build what we can in Canada. We also can't wait to develop an industry in Canada for certain things we need now. Fighter jets and submarines come immediately to mind.

maryfernando.bsky.social•8 days ago

Agreed.

cindyricecakes.bsky.social•8 days ago

Yes! 👏🏻

maryfernando.bsky.social•8 days ago

Why would Canada increase the military equipment of the country that’s threatening us rather than building that equipment here in Canada? https://bsky.app/profile/maryfernando.bsky.social/post/3li4z6f44hs2o

maryfernando.bsky.social•8 days ago

5/ For those of us who spent a lot of time correcting #misinformation about vaccines and masks to save lives, is it any wonder many of us are now correcting political misinformation meant to harm or kill?

Same goal, different game.

Canada needs to vote for an individual who truly, deeply cares about Canada and its people, not only interested in lining their own pockets, vote in your own best interests, votes have consequences!!!!!!

Well said, and I agree 100%👍👍

mike.doughney.net•8 days ago

The only thing that will drive anything into that brainless orange twat's head is the death of US soldiers at the hands of Canadians. You heard it here first.

mike.doughney.net•8 days ago

And then, of course, only maybe, if he fully follows in Putin's footsteps.

ellaminnow.bsky.social•8 days ago

Can anyone explain what trump means when he says they are subsidizing Canada? Is it via military spending?

deanthesavage.bsky.social•8 days ago

He is too dumb to understand how trade works between a larger and smaller market. He thinks because his larger market imports more from us that is somehow subsidizing us. I mean he still doesn't quite grasp that tariffs are a tax on his own people. Elect a clown, expect a circus.

ellaminnow.bsky.social•8 days ago

Thanks for this- it’s hard to wrap my head around what seemingly makes no sense.

deanthesavage.bsky.social•8 days ago

Trump is every negative stereotype of an American you've ever had personified in one person.

firemanswife.bsky.social•7 days ago

Well said 🤡

firemanswife.bsky.social•7 days ago

Good question

tryangregory.bsky.social•8 days ago

Exactly one nation has ever threatened our sovereignty.

maryfernando.bsky.social•8 days ago

Nailed it.

turtlemapper.bsky.social•7 days ago

Don’t forget all the trans Atlantic planes that landed in Canada because the USA wouldn’t take them - guess we were just supposed to send Americans to death n the sea

Don’t listen to the Dotard FOTUS. He’s just a booger eating distraction from ethnic cleansing.

maryfernando.bsky.social•8 days ago

Taking over Canada isn’t a distraction- he’s been drumming this drum for years. He’s serious and flooding the air with misinformation to make his next move.

drpwilliams.bsky.social•8 days ago

When ever any says “Oh, he wouldn’t do that ….”

Nope, he’d do that and more - at least he’s going to try

He is serious about expanding the empire

His sycophants will enable him

kateculliton.bsky.social•8 days ago

😵‍💫 I had no idea.

I thought it was his latest descent into madness

We are very sorry.

maryfernando.bsky.social•8 days ago

Thank you!

fagankara.bsky.social•8 days ago

America has let him do everything he wants and he wants to take our country. He’ll never get it.

debkujawa.bsky.social•8 days ago

Either Trump is an absolute idiot in saying the things he says, or it is calculated misinformation designed to confuse and alter reality. In any case, he has absolutely no business serving as president of this country. He is a pathetic and evil excuse for a human. Devoid of humanity.

damediana.bsky.social•8 days ago

So true, and we will protect ourselves from the US now. No longer an ally.
