This is one of the sports events I love to see. It’s about the journey, not the finish.

It amazes me the number of Americans asking why Article 5 hasn’t been invoked and that this is another failure of NATO.

I remember them doing it as well. I don’t know may be they are being led in the war by a bunch of teenagers. It would explain a lot. But seriously they should have known this would happen.

They didn’t think they’d do that. They’ve done it before. Try reading history books. Sorry I forgot they probably banned those ones.

Yeah. I saw this. Carney must live rent free in his head. But he can fuck off.

When they don’t have a plan. Everything goes according to plan.

I’ve noticed this already. There are people wanting mandatory vetting even after they are in. That won’t even stop this.

War is t something that should be joked about. Especially from government accounts but it is the US.

Holy crap. I’d hate to be the family reading this.

Yeah like the Americans have a good track record on installing puppet governments. Isn’t that how this mess started years ago.

People get romantic ideas about their countries conduct during war and don’t like hearing that bad things happen.

I know several rescue ships that were torpedoed with loss of all hands even ones that had been previously rescued so they discontinued the practice. There were even cases in the Pacific of allied planes shooting survivors in the water as they treated them as combatants. Lots of bad stuff happened.

How a US War Crime Against a German Rescue Mission Helped Exonerate a Nazi Admiral at Nuremberg Werner Hartenstein pulled drowning British troops from the Atlantic Ocean in September 1942. The German U-boat commander was flying Red Cross flags and even radioed for help in English. American bombe...

They did. There was an incident where the Germans sunk a British ship transporting I believe Italian POWs. While the Germans were trying to save them they were attacked by an American plane flying out of the Azores, I think. This was after the Germans broadcasted they were rescuing survivors.

The fact that they knew the ship was on the ex does make it that much worse. There’s a story that there may have been Australian submariners onboard as well. Not that they could do anything anyway, but something else to strain relations with other countries about.

Yeah they don’t have a lot of room or the facilities to do that. I’ve been on our subs, my dad was a submariner, on a US boomer with my dad and a British sub while I was serving. None of them are really set up to deal with major medical issues with their own crew let alone another ship.

I think they’ve already given their reply. Basically saying they’ve been lied to so many times they are staying out of it.

I’m waiting for someone to translate Carneys latest speech into grade one English for Trump to understand. That could be interesting.

I’m sure that will end up in some history textbook somewhere. Really inspiring words. 😞

Same with the yahoos that think now if Iran were to strike either the US mainland or a large US base somewhere the US could invoke Article 5. Sorry you strikes first as far as I know that nullifies Article 5.

There’s video of the US president calling the team with him in the room. I’d like to say it’s unbelievable but I can believe that they all behaved that way.

Unfortunately we Canadians are kind of use to this. Just now we aren’t taking anymore. It’s not just the tariffs that are causing the boycotts of travelling to the US.

So I just tried skiing for the first time in my 55 years. Not bad fell the first three times. Now for something to eat and go back out and try it again.

The strength of the families of the victims. This isn’t the only one that I’ve heard think this way.

If you want to read something about Tumbler Ridge and the motivation behind one of Canada's worst mass shootings, I recommend Justin Ling in the Toronto Star:

A good article on Canadian medics in Afghanistan. I met a couple of the ones shown when I was overseas, including one of the narrators

Canada will not bend the knee.

Americans like to think of us as their pet or as a little sister they can bully. A joke.

They don’t seem to be laughing now. Now it’s threats and “be respectful”.

Fuck all the way off.

And on the American side of the bridge we used American steel. It was assembled with works from both countries. Trump can go F off now.

This reminds me of what someone who’s abusive would be saying. We need to be good to them but they can’t do whatever they want to us.

I haven’t watched any games yet but hearing this makes me happy. I’m glad to see Women’s hockey improving around the world.
