The US has been rogue since WWII, they have just had CEO’s and presidents who hid it better. Trump has no concept of this - he’s a bully elected by his country to make America first. If anyone read Project 2025 they are in no way surprised by this avaricious and corrupt approach. The guy bankrupted five casinos. CASINOS!!! They’re made to make money and he fucked up five of them.
So toe-to-toe is like wrestling a pig, you both end up muddy and pig enjoys it.
We need to maximize our impact by going after the things only Canada can cost effectively provide: oil, LNG, tar, potash, lumber, water, financial products. And dump the F35 like a rock. It can only be used against us anyway; better we partner with the EU.

Neglect stories… I’ve got a few.
From the time I was six or seven she tried to reason with me (with +3-hr scoldings) and get me to change to her christo-Amway of thinking up till I was 16. Than I has a choice: knuckle under or get out. Being 16 and full of great, well thought out plans I left with three garbage bags of winter wear and clothes. Yes, she and him (my father) agreed that the decision to leave was my own to make. At sixteen.
Fast forward to me being 62. She lies dying in a home, and forgives me as her final act of charity. Yeah, ok, so buh-bye.
And him? Dementia. Game. Set. Match.
Treat your children as precious (if temporarily irritating) treasures and remember you only get to throw them away once.
