The USA has had dreams of this forever.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_Plan_Red

Not to fear, we also made similar plans. (Should have done it when we had the chance)

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defence_Scheme_No._1

Defence Scheme No. 1 was a war plan created by Canadian Director of Military Operations and Intelligence Lieutenant Colonel James "Buster" Sutherland Brown, for a Canadian pre-emptive attack against the United States in the (hypothetical) case of a conflict between the United States and the British Empire.

That is literally an act of war if they do that.

He barfs out these demented ramblings that get slurped up by corporate news sewers and now it's in the headlines like it was ever anything more than a misfiring syphilitic group of neurons in front of a microphone.

Redraw the boarders? Like what they did with golf of Mexico? Because no way Canada will agree on this.

I don't believe it's most. If you add those who support Trump to those who are too indifferent to bother to vote against him, the people who will oppose him are in a minority. And even some of that minority is "don't rock the boat" Democrats who will go along with the status quo, even as it lurches to the right. Others are scared and won't do anything to help. Trump's favorability rating bumps along at around 45-52% these days, and Americans have a strong tendency to rally behind the troops and the President even in needless and cruel wars, and they're suckers for propaganda. So I don't believe a majority are on Canada's side in any meaningful way. Americans will fall in line, and Canada has to defend itself against this aggression.

It's an odd thought that there must be people out there who consider the Telegraph worth paying for. Crazy world.
