Lol... bud. Claiming victory after someone has decided you don't warrant the time or the effort is not the flex you think it is.
Let's just put it this way.
The reason you trade with us is because we're willing to sell our surplus resources at a cheaper price than you can access them for at home. Note the word surplus. As in, more than we need. I'd love to hear what you think Canada needs from America, especially in light of the next paragraph, that we can't get from any number of other places without the pain in the ass factor that defines you folks now.
In terms of our military, it basically exists to facilitate trade and honor long standing alliances. We don't piss people off and we've already got more land and resources than we need, so we're not looking to take anyone else's. The only enemies we collect are those we make when we answer your call - specifically your call. That's it. We are not a warmonger nation, despite having great soldiers. To be honest, there's no real point in us even being in NATO, that's an old old tie back to a threat that has long been dead, over issues that are now all but forgotten. We're just loyal to our friends. There isn't really any other upside for us. Not that that isn't enough.
So, with those two things in mind, maybe you can understand why what you're saying here sounds pretty ridiculous. Normally we'd just laugh at you, but things are a little heated right now, if you haven't noticed.
The one problem you guys face with Trump's approach is that it teaches the world what the world would look like without a stable, reliable America. The reaction might look like caving, I'm sure that's what being adult and reasonable and polite and intelligent looks to maga. But the reality is that the world knows how to handle your little man child president. Placate, stroke his ego, and buy yourself time to make a new plan and find a work around.
The biggest risk Trump exposed you to was teaching the world that America no longer deserves to lead it. Nobody can say today what the ripple effect will look like, it's way too early. Maybe early enough for America to course correct. But I don't see you enjoying the privilege you have going forward, not to what it was pre-Trump, that's over for you, we know better now. Not just Canada, not just Mexico, but every country (including the one solely populated by penguins) that appeared on that dumbass's little sign.
America burns all its bridges if it lays a finger on Canada. Instantly. You will become North Korea. This is why, despite all the cringey attempts to create scary rhetoric, I don't give a lot of bandwidth to worrying about it, regardless of whatever some dumbass zero hedge article has come up with to monetize morons.
Anyway, hope this helps you understand why you're not going to get any traction with Canadians with this shit. If we walk away it's not because we're saying you won anything. It's that we're good with you making a fool of yourself, because we simply know more than you. We're smarter. We are more educated. There is just no need to prove ourselves to you. In fact, keep being wrong, and keep confirming the stereotype. We're already monetizing it, and will find more ways the longer you keep at it.
