“It also means we won’t stop when you ask. We stop when the job is finished. That’s the part the last two guys who tested us never understood. There’s a reason Crerar had to write that order in 1944. It isn’t in us to let up once we’ve decided you’re the enemy, and Trump spent eighteen months making sure we decided. Angus Reid’s July numbers showed that 65 percent of Canadians told their government to treat the United States as a threat or an enemy before this weekend even happened. That number is going one direction.
Canadians give no quarter. It’s not a slogan. It’s a documented finding by the senior historian of our national war museum and my fucking blood type.”
“This might be the thing that saves you
I mean this next part with everything I have, because I’ve got family and friends and forty years of memories on the other side of that border, and I know most of you didn’t sign up for this any more than we did.
Canada didn’t go to war in 1939 because we hated Germans. We went because someone had to hold the line until America was ready to show up, and it took two years and a Japanese fleet to get you there. We held it. Then you came, and together we ended it, and the world you built after 1945 was the best one it’s ever had.“

“Trump has spent a year and a half trying to burn that world down, and his own country hasn’t been able to stop him. The courts haven’t. Congress hasn’t. Forty trillion dollars in debt hasn’t. So maybe the thing that finally does it is a 40-million-person country with a two-war reputation for not stopping, quietly turning the American economy into a lesson about what a friend costs once you’ve made him an enemy. Maybe it takes the North freezing him out for Americans to remember what he’s cost them. We’ll take that job. We’ve taken worse ones for you.
You’re welcome, in advance.”

“To Trump, and to the people cheering him on: you have picked a fight with the one neighbour on earth whose entire military history is a warning against picking that fight. We show up smiling. We show up in shorts. We show up with a case of beer, a snowblower, and a genuine hope that this all gets fixed on a handshake. And if it doesn’t, we show up the other way, and there is no historical record, anywhere, of that going well for the people across from us.“

Trump just declared economic war on the one country that has never, in two world wars, learned how to quit or lost. A BRUTAL history lesson for MAGAmerica, written with love, from Canada.”

Every American needs to read this to understand who they are fucking with.
And the number he is looking for is 46.
4 Canadian divisions destroyed 46 German divisions in 100 days.

@fsinn Canadians are famously polite and apologetic
Imagine how much pent up bullshit they let out when you make them fight a war

@marcwithac We’d heard about this clown when he hit dirty across town but 18 months ago he showed up at our rink, and we’ve been very, very, politely dodging as he tried to run us into the boards, until now.

@fsinn Yes, but have you considered that you are dealing with a self described "Goliath"?
Or maybe you're up against "The Death Star"? Or maybe you're up against a "Napoleon"? Or maybe you're up against literally "The Confederate South"? Or you're up against Elmer Fudd?
Oh yeah, you're doomed for sure.

Dean Blundell is a piece of shit and a clickbait hypester. Maybe don't give him oxygen.
