Summary
Mark Carney was sworn in as Canada’s 24th prime minister on March 14, declaring “We will never, in any shape or form, be part of the US,” rejecting Donald Trump’s annexation threats.
Carney won the Liberal leadership with 85.9% of the vote despite having no elected experience.
He called US Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s suggestion that Canada would be better as “the 51st state” simply “crazy.”
Carney is expected to call an election soon as he faces the challenge of managing Trump’s trade war that threatens to push Canada into recession.
Drive across the border… then what? Canada is vast. A million soldiers is not a lot compared to this landscape. Even if you only consider the 100 mile strip of land along the border. It’s a vast area to occupy…. and then do what with it?
Going to Ottawa and completely disrupting and dismantling the government would probably be a solid first step.
I’m sure Big Balls would be thrilled to help as he’s done in the US.
That’s not gonna work. The prime minister and the rest of the government MPs will escape before they can be captured.
That’s what Napoleon tried to do when he invaded Russia. I predict similar results.
