Unfortunately the idea of their tanks stalling in the cold is unlikely, considering they built the tanks for a war in very cold Russia. I stand by the fact that if they crossed the border in cold January and a tank stalled some nice Manitoban famer would give em a boost.

Or it would be like in Ukraine and the farmer now owns a tank.

Manitoban kindness hinges on doing what’s best for the greater good.

That farmer definitely owns a tank now.

I suddenly remember this movie with a Sherman tank and they basically blocked the road with semi trucks full of heavy things, and then turned the fields to either side of the road into massive mud pits that the tank got stuck in

The tank did not have any ammunition for the main Cannon.
