    Maybe I’m being a bit dramatic, yeah, but we’re living in really dramatic times.

    we’re never annexing Canada or your minerals

    I mean, a lot of people didn’t expect Trump to tear down the American government within months of getting into power either. With Trump stating that he wants to annex Canada “through economic means” and then immediately attacking us with ridiculous tariffs, it seems like he’s following through on that. I don’t think he’ll hurt us as bad economically as he’s hoping though, so I don’t think him declaring actual war on us out of the picture. It honestly seems like he’s already trying to warm his base up to the idea with us being “a national security threat” and “overrun by cartels”.

    Idk, just try to picture the POTUS repeatedly saying he’s going to annex your home for months on end, and then try not to get a little bit on edge.

    Edit:

    America having a civil war [will] make your life as a Canadian objectively worse

    Yeah I admit you’re most definitely right about this. It really wouldn’t be a good time
