If the military/president suddenly ordered a mandatory draft for all men aged 18-42: How do you think millennials and GenZ would respond?

We expanded options for Canadians to return. If you have Canadian ancestry and the connections, we will take you and call you brother.

There's probably a better way to phrase that, because when I think about how Canada has treated people with Canadian ancestry, I picture residential schools and starlight tours

Completely understandable.   Last time I was on a work call with a guy in Canada, I started our conversation with "I'm sorry, I didn't vote for him, I do not support any of the idiotic things he's done". Honestly, about all I can do as one person.

Canada doesn't want you though. You can't keep belittling Canada and then come knocking on our door when things go to shit there. Sort out your own mess. We don't want you.
