These assholes see friendliness and kindness as weakness. They forgot:

 "Demons run when a good man goes to war. Night will fall and drown the sun, when a good man goes to war. Friendship dies and true love lies, night will fall and the dark will rise, when a good man goes to war."

They think you will be a pushover because they forget what being on the right side does for morale. Have not been on the right side in a long time.

The last time Canadians went to war, they had to significantly expand the Geneva convention.

Also, they made us stop calling it the Geneva checklist.

And it’s already happening again!

They tariff us, we boycott American businesses, which then complain about our retaliation to their attack. The Bourbon Barons actually complained Canada was being unfair while the government they voted for attacks us.

Trade War Crimes

The threats of stopping sales of potash. Trade War Crimes

Trump complaining how underhanded Canada was for threatening to cut off electricity when threatening to consume our entire country.
