Seems it was a waste of our time and money. If anything, Canada should be asking the USA to increase their own border security as guns and drugs come into Canada at a much larger scale. And why even have a fentanyl czar etc if none of our actions will stop the tariffs? This was never about the border or drugs but Trump said jump and Canada asked How high?

    Canada needs to treat US as an enemy. Make friends/neutrality with all of US’s enemies. Not doing so is begging them to stop abusing us, and just plays into their longer game of wearing us down until we accept more sycophantic compliance that is never, and never will be, rewarded. I get that we have a Ukrainian voting block that fully supports having destroyed Ukraine out of soviet era hatred, and we have decades of brainwashing towards accepting the US’s enemies as our own, but no Canadian can be serious about their anger at a warmongering threat if they are too desperate to return to the subservient colonial status that US has always demanded.

    Being serious about our sovereignty needs nuclear weapon protections from new allies. Anything else is just whinning until we lose.
