Beautiful, encompassing us as Canadians, our pride, dignity, honour, & lack of conceit & arrogance. I love how sport bring us together as an international nation while things are incredibly challenging in this world....
@Femme61 Couldn't love or respect that stance and statement more. Thank you for sharing. I'd like to paynit forward and share ad well π¨π¦π€β½οΈ
After I received the Meritorious Service Medal at Rideau Hall in Ottawa from the Governor General of Canada, the Honourable Louise Arbour, the Rideau Hall staff invited me to do a move or two. It was time to test if I could do it in the limits of a suit π. Now I am inviting our bureaucrats to try this in their own suits π
@JustinTrudeau Nope. JT, you needed to be here. Katy is lovely and all. However, you were a world leader and still looked upon as such. You should have been here. I will support you always, but this was a very bad decision.
Letβs finally put this tired MAGA fantasy to rest:
the U.S. has never militarily protected Canada β not once, not ever.
Canada has never been invaded by a foreign power in modern history, and we have certainly never asked the U.S. to ride in like some self-appointed saviour.
In fact, the only time American troops showed up on our soil in force was during the War of 1812 (Confederation wasn't even born yet) β when they tried to invade and conquer us and got their asses handed to them by a militia, First Nations warriors, and British forces.
The colonies defended themselves.
And, furthermore to facts, NORAD is a joint defense partnership, NOT American charity.
Yet the MAGA base keeps repeating this crap that βif it wasnβt for us, Canada would be gone.β
No. We never begged for your protection, we never needed it, and we sure as hell donβt owe you for a fantasy scenario that exists only in your heads.
Canada stands on its own.
Always has.
