‘Proven Threats To U.S. National Security’: Canada, Cartels, And Trump’s Tariffs

Much of the damage arises from an historic Canadian legal immigrant importation program of unprecedented scope.

President-elect Donald Trump bloodied Mexico and Canada with diplomatic buckshot earlier this week by writing that, on his first day in office, he’ll levy devastating 25% trade tariffs on those two U.S. neighbors if they fail to crack down on illegal immigration and drug trafficking.

Much public puzzlement has filled international media coverage over why Trump would single out Canada for punishment equal to that of the far guiltier Mexico.

“To compare us to Mexico is the most insulting thing I’ve ever heard from our friends and closest allies, the United States of America,” Ontario Premier Doug Ford said. “I found his comments unfair. I found them insulting. It’s like a family member stabbing you right in the heart.”

“We shouldn’t confuse the Mexican border with the Canadian border,” Canadian Industry Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne said.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
If and when the Mexican border becomes difficult to traverse, the Canadian Border is the next most likely route in (not counting maritime incursions). They're fair game if they don't interdict problems on the way, imho.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Don't confuse Canada with Mexico.

Canada only accepts rich educated immigrants from former British Dominions, like Hong Kong and India.

Canada has a lot of open space to accomodate more refugees and assylum seekers than the US does.
