Not very neighbourly.

Neighbourly merely turned out to be a false sentiment, considering how easily we've seen it exterminated right in front of us in the space of less than a year.

It appears that Trump's version of neighbourly is increasingly similar to what the Hatfields had for the McCoys.

Just answering your comment on the Maunsell forts.

Fact of the matter is that fixed fortifications are irrelevant to the US. They don't even slow us down.

The Armoured Heavy Moose Dragoons will.

The US military will sleep soundly tonight in the certain comfort of knowing that your Parliament will never fund an effective military program like the AHMD.

Fine, let's say you're right. Then what are you going to do to protect your lobstermen from being illegally interdicted by the US BP?

Edit: I don't know if you folks have noticed or not, but I'm squarely on your side in this.

In all seriousness?

A $50,000 social media campaign.

And really, you got two solid options here. You could falsely claim the greatness of the area (with some pics of 'massive Canadian hauls'), or you could introduce a little east/west ego inducing comments.

Then you sit back. Americans will take care of the rest for you.

We did, once. Then Diefenbaker happened.

And no. I will probably never get over it.

Were it up to me, we'd have a reasonable military, 30 surface combatants each ocean, 3 pocket carriers, submarines, and multiple patrol craft, tanks and support vehicles, gunships 150,000 man standing army, several squadrons of Canadian made and designed fighters and multirole aircraft.

but sadly its not. So we will continue to mire ourselves in mediocrity.

That's a pretty rational TOE!

That's why its not.

Whys that? Because I believe in being able to defend ones self? Really? your fine with a rapidly atrophying military, one that can't provide rucksacks and sleeping bags to its members? really? Incredible.

god forbid we have the means to defend ourselves.

Didn't you get the memo? We're not allowed to have nice things anymore.
