Well this is absolutely frightening in so much that Trump is going to force his way into Canada via military operations by claiming fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction.

Anyone remember the Bush Administration and WMDs they said were there but never were?

Elbows up Canuck’s. The time to prepare is most likely closer than we think.

This is how he creates cassus belli to invade Canada.

Meanwhile, there's what, 20x more fentanyl coming into Canada from the US than from Canada into the US?

Yes the drugs go from the USA into Canada. But Trump supporters will believe whatever he says, the fascists in power will do whatever he says, and the propaganda machine will work hard on everyone else. Soon it will be unpatriotic to suggest that the USA doesn't need to defend itself against Canada's aggression and weapons of mass destruction. Facts don't matter. Meanwhile we Canadians are sitting here thinking "what the fuck?" and watching the USA prepare to attack us.

Time to start planting explosives in all the bridges along the St Lawrence, and manufacturing dragons teeth.

If they don't exist already.
