We may not have heavy weaponry, but we have the bonus of looking exactly like any other American.
He’ll have to face a lot of dead American soldiers. I will die a Canadian. And asymmetric warfare is available to anyone these days. Just look how The Ukraine has held off the Russian invasion for three full years with a fraction of the resources and manpower.

I think a lot about 9/11 and asymmetric warfare. Bin Laden spent ~$100k and won. America has spent how many trillion since?
We just need to hit the people in power where it hurts. There’s a lot of ways to do that but we’re running out of nonviolent options.

We send so much of our natural resources in an almost of completely raw state beyond our borders. Why not enact a law demanding that it be in its final format prior to consumption?
They want oil? Refined gasoline and diesel for vehicles. Or plastic particles for vacuum-forming. Or actual plastic parts for assembly.
They want wood? Lumber processed into its final usable form - beams and studs and plywood only.
They want wheat? Processed and ground into flour and bagged for use.
Rinse and repeat for every raw resource imaginable that comes out of Canada.

I’m speaking as an American wishing we could get rid of our rulers re running out of non violent options. If you haven’t noticed, we take what we want regardless of what you’re gonna do about it but usually we do that to brown people abroad for their oil?
But good luck bargaining, maybe if you flatter trump he’ll agree to it. Ugh.
