    We really ought to stop exports of anything their military needs, for national security reasons. “National security” is one of Trump’s favorite justifications, so I’m sure he’ll understand.

      That’s how you definitely get invaded. Cover Canada in spikes before you do something like that.

        Why he has said they don’t need anything from us. Is he going to go back on that?

        Oh… so we are already forced to give US everything they want always. Glad to learn this. An alternative to that arrangement would be better relations with other colonies, and US enemies. How much would it cost to get North Korea to give us a nuclear umbrella? Compared to continuing our current colonial status, the latter could appear to be a good deal for US.

          Canada could develop its own nuclear deterrent. In terms of know-how, industrial capacity and materials, all the pieces are there. It has never been necessary, however.

          That might be changing.
