I hope this possible (yeah right, lol) upcoming war is not just a distraction from Trump's scandals and or the Freedom Camps / Kid Kennels at the border.

Never mind the astonishing hypocrisy, let's all focus on the fact that Iran is simply not living up to an agreement that Obama negotiated and Trump himself tore up. And for that, they must be punished!

3 of the 4 Maritime provinces make up the bottom three of provinces by GDP (Newfoundland is the third-highest because oil). PEI is among that group.

If the Feds cut that spending the place would pretty much fall apart.
So what you are saying they are the Alabama, Mississippi and Arkansas of Canada?

A US war with Iran would make an excellent time for Canada to invade America.

Mexico can join in and we'll split it 50-50 - they get all the yahoo gun states, we get the northern less-gunny states, sell Hawaii to Australia, turn Alaska into a giant oil field and no electoral votes for DC.


Oh come on now the more power you give DC the more the US becomes a socialist state....So says Mitch...
In that case you would want DC to become more socialist so it is more like Canada...so says all Trump supporters? :noidea:

Yes, just not as fat.

Also, NB is probably more like Louisiana - Cajuns originally came from there to begin with (Acadians), they still speak French, NB is named after a place in Germany while Louisiana is named for a guy who was half-German, etc.

Yeah but then you'll be left unprotected in Baltimore.

Well....I'm pretty sure my wife is putting visine in my coffee every morning anyhow. I've had a good run. I made it long enough to see a 'cat-fox' discovered and Kate Mara's side boob.

Nah, there are a lot of heavily armed folks here just waiting for any little excuse to use them on humans. Might not be a safe move.

I’m likely giving Trump way too much credit here but say the JCOS and NSC are both conclusively telling him the drone was in int’l waters and this was indeed a hostile act, one that Iran took credit for almost immediately and ties in to recent conduct in the area. Almost any president would be encouraged and have a plan drawn up to attack in retaliation, and such an attack would accomplish absolutely nothing – just like his Syria strike.

If he got all this, thought it over and scrubbed it this was probably the best play – it shows he isn’t a warmonger (I know what we all think but it’s worth mentioning that his election had a lot to do with non-interventionism), it shows that he does have control over the more hawkish members of his administration and the military and it could open up a channel of, If not negotiation, at least understanding that the US isn’t in some rush to go to war.

Or he just called fucking Hannity and took his advice. Probably that.

Perhaps Putin called and said "Don't fuck up my oil supply."
