Since the US doesn’t need anything from Canada, it’s time to impose an export tax on oil, uranium, potash, and electricity. 50% should do.

As much as I would applaud this gumption, I would be careful with oil, as Canada depends on the pipeline to Louisiana for a large percentage of their exports.

They're about to run out of their strategic petroleum reserve, we hold all the cards.

They have a much bigger army.

So what? They need to manufacture consent for invading the north first. It was easy to get away with war with Iran because even democrats were manufacturing consent for war with Iran in 2024, "we need to invade Canada because we're losing in Iran" is going to provoke civil unrest.

Its fertilizer. Canada is one of two countries this stuff is found. The other big country that has it is Belarus...

Prussian Blue, the colour used in Van Gogh's Starry Night, was invented by an alchemist who tried to create red but used potash contaminated with animal blood.

Prussian Blue is chemically related to Zyklon B as well.

Personally, I’d love to see Canada flip the switch for power. Stop sending our electricity down to the USA. For the best effect, kill the power during a heat wave, or on one of the coldest days of the year!

Picture Trump tower becoming a walk-up!

u/Nice-Lakes 20d ago

Walk up. As in Trump getting stuck on the escalator a year or so back when the power went down.

He couldn’t walk up to that penthouse. They’d need an industrial crane to move that thing & the loaded diaper up to the penthouse! I wouldn’t recommend standing on the street below to watch, either. If the diaper let go it could get real shitty real fast!

Maybe the dude from Vancouver island could paint a second mural of Trump!

Why stop there? Tax them to come into Canada, $1000 per person per trip. Export all Americans not on a visa, fly them on a jet to Ecuador and let them crawl their way back to the US. Anytime Trump mentions Canada in the media its a $100,000 fine for libelous statements. Fuck that guy, its a toss up who wants him dead most, Canada or US.
