Just a friendly reminder too that a 2015 report from the ATF found that 71% of the guns the cartels use are bought in the United States and carried south across the border. The United States is just as complicit in the rise of cartel related crime as the cartels themselves!
I’m not gonna touch the insane ramblings of the Cheeto, but I will remind you that the oceans exist and you can very easily take a boat from Mexico to Canada without ever entering the US if you wanted to.
Or, you know, an airplane. Cartels have planes too.
Honestly planes are a little harder. Pretty much all airspace is monitored so it’s more likely to be noticed.
Then again I haven’t smuggled drugs for the cartels in years so maybe they figured out a way around that little problem.
Fly low, the terrain confuses the targeting systems.
GTA told me that, one mission in particular.
Avoid populated areas, and fly low. The exact same techniques that they’ve been using for decades. Radar is dumb, it sends back a return when it bounces off objects, but you can’t tell what it is returning, that’s why planes have transponders to supplement more info. If you just don’t do that and fly low it will get filtered out with the terrain most of the time.
I’m sensing a new business opportunity…
They have larger fleets than mexican airlines
This highlights the folly of trying to lock down the Canada-US land border. If you really wanted to cut down drugs and human trafficking, you’d focus on ports of entry to the continent. The border is just way too long. Only an idiot would try to police its full length. If you think it’s only the 4000 miles from Maine to Washington State, you’re forgetting that extra 1500 miles with Alaska.
Cartels have boats, but no one’s shipping drugs up to Canada just to smuggle them south: They just get shipped directly to the US
Trump is just making up an excuse to justify cutting off trade with Canada.
Really, the whole fentanyl thing seems like scaremongering: People do overdose on it, but you won’t die from touching it or inhaling trace quantity. It’s not even the most potent opioid known, not even close to it.
He’s just setting things up for the invasion of Canada. Fentanyl, cartel, none of this is real. The idea probably comes from Putin.
I personally think the whole Fent stuff is bs. Like cops od’ing if they even touch the pill with barehands and shit. If that was the case then the people who have trouble swallowing pills who take Fent we should just tell them just hold it in your hand for a little bit. I have literally been putting pills in a bottle and drop one on our medical plate pick it up with barehands and toss it in the bottle. Never got high or even a buzz.

The second link has some history on where this idea came from
He’ll blame the blue states
Pitting Canada against the USA is a tactic designed by people smarter than Trump. Obviously. It’s working on millions of citizens of both countries, including you. Don’t be ashamed. It wasn’t Trump that manipulated you.
Hey now dem dur fittin wirds. anna take it oot back? I didn’t vote for that orange piece of shit. I saw this coming from a mile away it just kind of seems like if cartels are in Canada then its the US that needs to be fixed instead of Canada dealing with a problem we pretty much created a market for them to grow.
You’re clearly giving it too much thought. It’s just stupid, blatant lies. There is no point in entertaining them or even questioning them.
I grew up to hate bullies and this just reminds me of bullying. Not saying US is the better country or anything. But really want to have a shirt printed up that says I side with Canada. I prolly get killed since im stationed in the deep south at the moment. But would be worth it.
Yes but that would take too much logic for Trump to realise what a bad claim it is.
And his cult is too stupid to know either way.
Canada can blame US for unregistered gun coming into the country.
Preventing gun smuggling should be one of the negotiation itemThat’s way too logical for a Donald rant
Tunnels?
Oooo I like this one. One big tunnel under the US to Canada.
