    “There will be a political and economic price if Canada followed member of Parliament Heather McPherson’s call for all ICE out of Canada”

    There’s no cost for standing up to bullies. On the contrary, the cost comes from backing down.

    Folks, unlock your gun cabinets. These MF-ers as much as make noise on our soil, Luigi them all!

      Learn how to snipe at distance. We cannot beat them with force, but we can bleed them dry from a million separate cuts.

    Fact of the matter is if ICE wanted to round up Canadians, most local police, at least in Alberta, would be helping to support ICE operations while making a canned statement on TV about the legality of their actions.

    You all need to be pressing your government to declare ICE a terrorist organization so that you can bar entry of any current or former member into the country.

    The question is: would a Canadian citizen witnessing an ICE kidnapping happen in Canada be allowed to use up to lethal force to stop it?

      I don’t care. I’m not an American gimp. I’ll help a person being kidnapped or harassed in Canada. If it’s a US MAGA Nazi fuck, they’ll get a mother fucking double-double. I’ll take the chance.

      Fuck ICE.

      From a grizzled, old, Scottish WWII veteran: “Young Man, I’ll tell ya something I learned in the war, never, ever underestimate those Canadians! They are the toughest soldiers I encountered in the war.”

      FTR: he also said he thought Germans were pansies, lol.

      Dead now, but he was a tough SOB, himself (I mean, he WAS Scottish, so that’s a pedigree right there).

    We must prepare for potential ICE agressive incursions into our territory.
    We must be ruthless against fascism.

    Aha, so baaically if you get snatched and dragged into the US for suspected violation of US law, the American legal system is okay with it and you have limited avenues to defend yourself. Canada would have to “convince” the US to let you go. In other words, exercise higher caution around ICE than our neighbours do.

    I believe I, and any Canadian, have every right to kill a person who represents a foreign (hostile)government, and tries to abduct me, or those I care about in my country. As they do not represent my government, I believe I’m free and clear.

    No authority?

    No process?

    It is then an act of war, and we should respond accordingly with deadly force.

    Just sayin.

      I agree, foreign agents seeking to subvert Canadian sovereignty, their life is forfeit as long as they are operating on Canadian soil. They shouldn’t have any legal protections either if their objective is to destabilize the country or attack our sovereignty.

      Well. I mean, attempt armed arrest anyway and hope they don’t start shooting. That’s just polite.

        As they are not empowered by a Canadian government, they may not carry firearms unless they have an express act to do so. This may in fact be the case under a blanket act for border agents. We should review that…

      This is one of the first times I’ve heard a Canadian threatening without saying sorry first.

    I’d love to see them try. And I think many Canadians are also chomping at the bit to “see America try”. Lets see how far they get up here.
