@sarahcapitalinsights: 🚨 A U.S. admiral was asked whether he would obey an order to attack Canada. The fact that the question was even asked tells you how extraordinary the deterioration in U.S.–Canada relations has become. What began as tariffs and trade threats is increasingly being discussed through the language of national security, defence planning and strategic alignment. At the same time, Canada is expanding economic engagement with China, reopening military dialogue with Beijing, and sending growing volumes of Canadian crude across the Pacific. Now connect the pressure points: 🇨🇦 Canada–U.S. relations deteriorating 🇺🇸 Washington using enormous economic leverage 🇨🇳 Canada expanding engagement with China 🛢️ Canadian oil increasingly reaching Asian markets 🇹🇼 Taiwan remaining the central U.S.–China flashpoint ⚔️ Defence planners considering scenarios that once seemed unthinkable Does this mean America and Canada are heading toward war? No. Military contingency planning and hypothetical questions are not evidence that an attack has been ordered or is imminent. But something important has changed when scenarios once considered politically absurd are entering public discussion. The unthinkable has become discussable. The lamps are not yet out. But the wiring is visible. #Canada #UnitedStates #Trump #MarkCarney #USCanada
