    My theory is Trump wants Canada’s border more secure so border agents can return anyone fleeing the states and his rule back into his control.

    I never understood why we were appeasing him in the first place. Yes, fentanyl is a problem on both sides but always felt it was each country’s responsibility to control and manage their own border - It’s your border. It’s your problem!

      Our border is a disaster, the amount of guns and drugs that enters Canada is probably unprecedented in global terms.

      This is not a “both sides” issue, the US is flooding us with trash then telling us we’re the problem.

    Yup, members of the Heritage Foundation have talked about making massive camp systems in Canada. I imagine it would be largely for Canadians and deported Americans and migrants.
