American exceptionalism is a little bubble that makes them feel good about themselves even when the rest of the world is just watching them with jaws agape.
Ya, it's really tough living in the most powerful country in the world. When's the last time anyone even thought about Canada?
Oh no, leafs aren’t favorable towards us? This will impact us in so many ways!
nothings changed with actual Canadians, this maps perfectly to their demographic shift towards people from shitholes the usa has recently bombed or is in a tradewar with.

A lot of america would think about which side they're gunna join. Almost like a lot of people forget theres families split across the border.
I've got family in Toronto, Minnesota, California, Arkansaw, Alaska, Newfoundland, Rochester, and British Columbia. I'm sure im not the only one with a widespread familiy?
I'll sit this war out.
Does anyone really want a fight between the US and Canada? I highly doubt it.
Edit: downvoting an antiwar sentiment between the US and CAN? Wow
You mean the war were our deaths are less then 15k and we’ve been there for 19 years? Or the ones where we destroyed the standing army so quickly that we got to hang a mission accomplished banner within a month?
Theres definitely 0 resistance from the civilian population. /s
I've got a great love for the united states military, you seem to be misunderstanding what im saying. Civilian populations dont just roll over and die.
Vietnam, France, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq, Iran etc.
You're incorrect. We are limited on magazine size (except for .22) and thats about it. I can buy a .50 cal semi auto sniper rifle and a .50 cal desert eagle if i want. You wanna increase your mag size? Drill out the blocking pin.
Drink to forget this convo cause youre wrong bud, a quick google search will prove that.
Now change the subject to something else and throw more insults cause thats what a good person does right? Leave me alone man, im not interested in arguing with someone who whole heartedly believes the dumb shit they say.
Again, the whole fucking point was that the civilian populations of canada and the usa dont want a war but here you are trying to prove me wrong or something? Thats whack dude.
See, you cant even admit you were proven wrong. You just try to change the subject. Thats quite pathetic. Now you wanna talk about joules cause you cant say "oh shit i guess you can buy shotguns and semi auto rifles in canada".
Like what, did you think we only had bolt actions, muzzle loaders and lever actions? Maybe just handguns and revolvers? What a weird line of thinking you convinced yourself of. You should really reexamine what you think to be true because it seems youre running your life on incorrect information.
I bet you make a lot of mistakes; i would wager youre that guy who overtalks his friends in the group and then everyone kind of side eyes each other like "oh shit, lets just ignore what came out of that idiot's mouth again ". Cause thats what im gunna do: ignore your pompous stupid ass, cause i dont have to put up with you.
Guess youre living again in a false reality where those are the only semi automatic weapons platforms available
Again, you're the dumbass. Every time you open your mouth you put your foot it in, i have no problem calling you out but i dont feel like wasting my time anymore
Oh no they banned the japanese type anti tank rifle! Whatever will i do?
Edit: take your time, i know you need it. Not gunna bother to read it though
My man, i apologize for coming across as confrontational. I wish to end this discussion by saying I love my brothers to the south and I would never raise arms against them; i hope they feel the same way.

I hate anti American Cannucks, so it's time for words words words. Canadian citizen, American greencard here - so much bullshit you read is completely wrong.
The healthcare system sucks balls nearly as often as ours (US) does. It might be good for things like a pandemic but my family flies out HERE for surgeries, because waiting in line behind a jobless or an immigrant with a boo boo who moved there to abuse the healthcare system is really frustrating, especially when you're the one paying for their services anyways. If you need a specialist sometimes you can only go to specific ones, and if they're poorly rated you're shit out of luck. My uncle had a fucking colostomy bag for 3 weeks, even offering to pay more he couldn't get his specialist and had to fly out here to advance it. It's not every case but people fucking die like this.
Pretty much every single talking point you read online is bullshit. Being an entrepreneur is near impossible if you don't come from money- even their income tax is completely crippling. The biggest difference in quality of life here vs there is pay, and the income tax contributes heavily to it.
"Colleges are cheaper" like you always hear, semi true, but their public school system is absolute dogshit- I've never seen someone who attended public school become anything past lower-mid class. Successful people in Canada all use the private school system paying 14-26k a year just to have a decent education, most attend grades 5-12 so seven fucking years of basically college tuition.
Anyways just a little rant to let confused people know, if you don't come from money in Canada you're just as likely to fail as anywhere else, you just get some baseline decent healthcare. Grass is greener kind of shit, but 90% of the talking points are lies and as someone who's worked 5+ years in either I would 1000% rather live and try to succeed in America.
it's pretty much the same here in Australia and in Kiwistan, though our healthcare certainly is in better shape than Canada's from the sound of things.
Job market in Straya commonly goes to crap, exchange rate commonly goes to crap, stores often put zero oversight into what they stock and sell mostly chinesium trash. Unless you want to get fleeced buying something imported from the usa or europe. Dining out is overpriced, the quality even in better regarded places is pretty rubbish compared to most random places i rocked up to while on holiday in California. Houses in australia are just rubbish, contractors rarely take pride in their work.. Getting a lazy git fired at work takes ages.
At least our government shows a spine sometimes over things that actually matter, and isn't completely high off its own insignificant airs like Canada.
Still there are a lot of people here completely convinced we are a utopia compared to the USA, even if with some of it is smacks of sour grapes. I like this country, great weather, lots of space; we do have it good. But some places have it better in some ways. Many aussies are just as guilty of getting bussyblasted over that fact as burgers.

13 SwiftOnSobriety 2020-05-13
In the aftermath of WWI, the US war gamed a plan for invading Canada. The leafs, in turn, war gamed a plan for holding off an American invasion long enough for the bongs to come to their aid. And the bongs, of course, war gamed what they would do if the US stated raking up the leaves: Abandon the leaves.
