I read someone else's post on Mastodon, where they said we should call it for what it is really going to be: an invasion. Annexation implies a legal merging of territory. Is that Trump's plan and are Canadians going to legally concede? Or does he intend to take Canada against our will either by conquering territory or altering our established government? We should be figuring this out asal, and then use the appropriate terminology. #CanadaStrong #Canada
2 of 2 Cont. from above.
The gun industry stumbles, dropping $10 billion and 150,000 jobs as ammo and barrels run dry (NSSF; DOD).
Over time, tech shrinks 30%, costing $500 billion and 1.2 million jobs - AI’s $200 billion chunk alone hands China the lead, with their $150 billion AI sector ready to pounce (BEA; CSIS; Xinhua, 2025).
Defense takes a $200 billion hit, shedding 300,000 jobs - military AI like DARPA’s $2 billion drones lags (CSIS; DOD, 2024).
In the first year, their GDP plunges $1.2 trillion - 4.2% - wiping out 2.5 million jobs (CSIS); over a decade, losses climb to $2.7 trillion as AI-driven growth stalls, data centers choke on power shortages, and global tech dominance fades (Reuters, Feb 28; IEA).
Food prices spike 20%, cutting 500,000 rural jobs (USDA), and riots brew as EVs, guns, and gold vanish.
Inflation’s already up 20.3% since 2020 (BLS, Feb 2025) . Phones jump $300, EVs $5,000; gas hits $5.70/gallon, draining $120 billion (AAA, March 15). Long-term, their economy’s toast without our minerals - AI’s just the start.
To be clear, I'm not saying this would happen. The U.S. wouldn't let it happen. I'm pointing out the impact.

Pulling back isn’t painless for us either. Alliances and new trading partners will take time to build. Transportation and the associated costs are a factor. Plus, we pull away from the U.S. too much and we'd have China stepping in to claim the U.S. former place.

Ready to see how Canada can play this smart? Here’s our game plan to keep the upper hand - and remember, this didn't start with Trump. .
Canada doesn’t need to go overboard. We just need to get tough.
This Arctic game’s been simmering way before Trump; his noise just turned up the volume (The Arctic Institute, 2025).
🔴 We should amp up Arctic defenses - add $1 billion to Carney’s $420 million boost to match Russia’s 40 icebreakers and block U.S. grabs (CBC News)
🔴 Spreading our trade to Europe and Japan makes sense - they’re hungry for our minerals, like Germany’s $2 billion lithium deal shows (Reuters, Feb 28).
🔴 We need to slash red tape - cutting mine permits from 10-15 years to 5 would unlock $10 billion in new projects yearly (Canadian Mining Journal, Feb 2025).
🔴 Fixing our infrastructure’s a must - $2 billion in northern roads and rails could stop the $1 billion annual delays choking our remote mines (CBC, 2023). It doesn't take long to see the ROI on this investment.
🔴 Training 10,000 new miners in five years would fill half our 25,000-job gap - decent pay like $70,000 to start gets those $1T Arctic riches moving (MiHR; StatCan, 2024).
🔴 Partnering with Indigenous groups who own big chunks of Arctic land could speed up our $1T haul while dodging legal snags (APTN, 2024).
🔴 Keeping companies like Teck and Nutrien Canadian-owned means blocking foreign buyouts. Teck’s $3 billion dodge last year proves we can scare off vultures..
🔴 Slapping a 15% surcharge on U.S. mineral exports brings in $4.5 billion to fund our edge (National Observer).
🔴 If the U.S. pushes back, cutting exports 50% drops their $29.8 billion supply to $14.9 billion (CSIS, July 18), we’d could face USMCA lawsuits, but smart legal moves can shut down their stalling, keeping $4 trillion of their economy in our hands.
𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐨 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 📢
This isn’t just talk. It’s happening right now. Here’s how we step up and win.
This is real, and it’s on us to act. Canadians should keep cutting U.S. imports and travel - it’s already making waves. We’re fired up.
Are we ready to stand tall? Sharing this post wakes more of us up to what we’ve got. Staying sharp keeps us ahead - they’re watching, and we need to watch back. We’re not their 51st state. David always wins. Let’s prove it.
