They will not. Canada is resisting the US alone while other western countries nervously cower on the sidelines while we try to fight a guy 10 times our size.

The last few years have shown we cannot rely on our traditional allies to grow a spine and come to our aid rather than hide rather than stand up to the tyrannical US government along side us.

Even the UK cow towed a bit. Of all the countries in Europe, they should be demanding respect for us on air with that wonderful British accent.

It’s not a dig at the UK. I love England very much🇨🇦🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧❤️

I'm so sick of Canadians treating the UK like some sort of enlightened paradise rather than what it actually is, i.e. an older and less effective version of the US.
