Well if Trump is looking for a reason to invade, he’ll have one he can promote. I don’t agree with it it, but he can say, “they’re cutting us off from our people!” Then he’ll invade BC to form a contiguous border to all our territories.
Hell based on the representatives going to DC to discuss making Alberta a state, he’ll probably gin up even more support.
- hypeatei 2y agoSo, a solution to a problem that he created? Interesting.
- gadflyinyoureye 2y agoYes. That’s what he does.
- barbazoo 2y agoFirst of all > The bill does not automatically impose fees on vehicles, but it “just gives BC the tools to do so down the road if Trump continues to escalate his threats towards BC and Canada,” according to a statement from the provincial Ministry of Transportation and Transit. Also this > The government of British Columbia filed legislation Thursday that would permit the province to levy tolls on vehicles between the Lower 48 and Alaska. No one is yet doing anything and no one is cutting anyone off.
- gadflyinyoureye 2y agoThat’s not how Trump will spin this. He’s going to pander to some idea of right to move between territorial holdings. He can whip his base up to request an invasion. There are few republicans that are willing to stand up to Trump. That’s why we have the idiocy of impeachment against judges.
