All I'm saying is that Canada and Mexico are going to need to step up their border defense game, just in case
Is this the long con to get Mexico to pay for the wall?
That's gonna suck all around; America already does poorly with insurgencies, let's see them fight one against their closest neighbour, who speak the same language, look the same, and follow most of the same culture.
I know that part of the Canada defence plan involves a bunch of people putting on american hats and some maps of critical us infrastructure.
Don't think that we have the same culture, ours revolves around not being americans.
It's an interesting conundrum. They come in and say they're from Canada, a good chunk of the US population would just say "I didn't see nothing"
Already burned the White House down once, can burn it down again.
I would like a certain jet to be burned as well.
Also that started with some militia red necks thinking they could invade.
We consume much of the same culture, courtesy of Hollywood, which makes it easier for us to blend in
"How do you do fellow americans"
"Don't worry about the anfo, by the way happen to know how well guarded the local power station is?"
