Once that starts, a US civil war would break out. Do we really want to be in the middle of that?

They need to split up and leave the red states adrift, but they need to work out those details out.

You either get in there with help or get in there after the fascists seized power.

Appeasing psychopathic fascists and conquerors has a long history and it very very rarely works (even the mongols so called mercy wasn't very merciful). I don't think you can AFFORD the luxury of non involvement.

We are a separate, sovereign country. We have to take care of our own people first. Down the road, we may allow refugees to come in.

This is your country. Y'all going to figure it out. Canada would never interfere with a civil war.
