Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.

Okay, but what's your idea
Americans regain control of their country from the fascists who are currently running the place?
The rest of the world isn't coming to rescue them from your own self-inflicted wannabe dictatorship.
At least not until we are forced to do it for our own survival.
Okay but I'm Canadian, they are gunning for us, not the other way around, I just don't see a plan here
So am I (if my username didn't give it away).
Yes they are hoping to wear us down and take us over, but our citizens led boycotts are helping to hurt them more than they expected or are willing to admit.
And the "buy Canadian" movement is also helping blunt the damage their tariffs are causing.
As for a plan, the federal government has been strengening ties with the rest of the world ever since Trump first pulled the 51st state bullshit out of his ass. And that continues. For example, Carney led a delegation to meetings with EU partners over the last 72 hours, where they were specifically discussing international security cooperation.
Initially the meetings were planned to discuss helping Ukraine, but they also has a lot of discussion about Trump's latest atrocity in Venezuela and his ongoing and renewed threats against various other countries including Greenland, Mexico , Canada and the long list of others.
Oh, I know, I do my best to not do any business with American stuff. It's really a game of patch to holes as best we can before the game of chicken reaches a boiling point
