"There will be a political and economic price if Canada followed member of Parliament Heather McPherson’s call for all ICE out of Canada"
There's no cost for standing up to bullies. On the contrary, the cost comes from backing down.

Folks, unlock your gun cabinets. These MF-ers as much as make noise on our soil, Luigi them all!
Learn how to snipe at distance. We cannot beat them with force, but we can bleed them dry from a million separate cuts.
The only good fascist is a dead fascist.

Give me an excuse. Please.
You all need to be pressing your government to declare ICE a terrorist organization so that you can bar entry of any current or former member into the country.
we have ICE offices in canada, in a bunch if our major cities, including ottawa. our capital.
Yeah. You might want to try to correct that.
there are none in my city, but i if one does end up here. the plan is to burn it.
I believe I, and any Canadian, have every right to kill a person who represents a foreign (hostile)government, and tries to abduct me, or those I care about in my country. As they do not represent my government, I believe I’m free and clear.
No authority?
No process?
It is then an act of war, and we should respond accordingly with deadly force.
Just sayin.
I agree, foreign agents seeking to subvert Canadian sovereignty, their life is forfeit as long as they are operating on Canadian soil. They shouldn't have any legal protections either if their objective is to destabilize the country or attack our sovereignty.
This is one of the first times I’ve heard a Canadian threatening without saying sorry first.
Shit must be gettin’ tough
The most polite people I know are also the most willing to stand up against wrong doing when the time comes. They are they way they are because they value good prosocial behaviour, they're willing to sacrifice their own convenience for it, and they're willing to defend it.
We are polite…..until we aren’t. That’s how the Geneva Convention was created.
Fuckin eh

Canadians are chomping at the bit here to get a reason to go burn down the Whitehouse again.
It's "champing" at the bit.
You're a true chompion of the English language.
I’ll drink to that
gulps down a mouthful of chompagne
It's only chompagne if it comes from the chompagne region of Fronce
True, otherwise it's just sporkling wine
They're generally both considered correct. "Chomping at the bit" has been in use for over 100 years.
Language, where you just have to be wrong enough that your version becomes a dialect.
It's literally the worst.

From a grizzled, old, Scottish WWII veteran: “Young Man, I’ll tell ya something I learned in the war, never, ever underestimate those Canadians! They are the toughest soldiers I encountered in the war.”
FTR: he also said he thought Germans were pansies, lol.
Dead now, but he was a tough SOB, himself (I mean, he WAS Scottish, so that’s a pedigree right there).

Because if they did I'd have the right to kill them as an invading force. Fuck ice may they all die.
We must prepare for potential ICE agressive incursions into our territory.
We must be ruthless against fascism.
Karl Popper had it right.
Do not tolerate intolerance and the behavior seen from the south.
Don't tolerate pro-MAGA Canadian Conservatives either. They're working against Canada.

We need to start protesting to get ICE out of Canada
Here's an idea. If ICE walks across the border, shoot them. They're a hostile foreign invader.
Fact of the matter is if ICE wanted to round up Canadians, most local police, at least in Alberta, would be helping to support ICE operations while making a canned statement on TV about the legality of their actions.
Aha, so baaically if you get snatched and dragged into the US for suspected violation of US law, the American legal system is okay with it and you have limited avenues to defend yourself. Canada would have to "convince" the US to let you go. In other words, exercise higher caution around ICE than our neighbours do.

I'd love to see them try. And I think many Canadians are also chomping at the bit to "see America try". Lets see how far they get up here.
unleashyour moose calvary.
The furthest an American can get is those who go to help defend Canada
The question is: would a Canadian citizen witnessing an ICE kidnapping happen in Canada be allowed to use up to lethal force to stop it?
I don't care. I'm not an American gimp. I'll help a person being kidnapped or harassed in Canada. If it's a US MAGA Nazi fuck, they'll get a mother fucking double-double. I'll take the chance.
Fuck ICE.
No. But if there's no body there's no murder.
