Title: Canadanian Troops sent to USA Border
Post by: airboy on August 09, 2017, 02:38:26 PM
I should start with BLAME CANADA! like South Park, but this story is more interesting than that.

Under Trump, the USA has started enforcing immigration laws.  This has caused a mass exodus of illegal immigrants to - Canada! 

To put some order in the chaotic situation, Canada has moved troops to the New York/Canada Border.

Pretty interesting stuff from multiple perspectives.

Yeah, too many for the Mounties to process. They are all being rounded up and held while they are processed....

They're setting up modular tents. That's it. RCMP is doing security duties.

Canadian Army has often provided aid with domestic civilian crises - wild fires, floods, ice storms, etc. This is not really news.

This REALLY IS NEWS!

Just like PEARL HARBOR except with MAPLE LEAVES.

The USA has had lots of trouble with RED COATS before.

We are already infested with Celine Dion's and Bieber's.  Who knows what they are plotting next?
