Well this is absolutely frightening in so much that Trump is going to force his way into Canada via military operations by claiming fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction.
Anyone remember the Bush Administration and WMDs they said were there but never were?
Elbows up Canuck’s. The time to prepare is most likely closer than we think.

I’m not being facetious and I’m not joking, and I don’t think he is either.
pticrix ( @pticrix@lemmy.ca ) English25•6 days agoSoooo can we declare Purdue Pharmaceutical and the Sackler family terrorists organization under that rhetoric? Asking for a friendly nation.
wise_pancake ( @wise_pancake@lemmy.ca ) 51•6 days agoHere comes the “special military operation”, but it’s not a declaration of war so he doesn’t need congressional approval.
Reannlegge ( @Reannlegge@lemmy.ca ) English27•6 days agoI agree that this is just so he has reason to continue his attacks, I am guessing it will be aimed at Mexico but Canada needs to be ready.
humanspiral ( @humanspiral@lemmy.ca ) 17•6 days agoFentanyl is the preferred opiate in hospitals. Cheaper per dose. US used to be able to “influence” Afghanistan to help its drug trade profits. Fentanyl is cheap because it doesn’t need controlled plants in addition to potency.
Hard to get an exact number for hospital theft amount of fentanyl, but
3,600 cases of alleged drug theft at healthcare facilities over the last five years, including 280 cases so far in 2020.
111,000 instances here where the folks that were reviewing [drug inventories] could not figure out why the math didn’t add up,"
What is almost certain is that US healthcare system is a larger source of illegal fentanyl than Canada. If the absurdity that it is a WMD is taken, there should be military security around hospitals before it’s placed at the borders.
The death potential of the vial of Anthrax Colin Powell quoted to UN was based on using an eye dropper to kill individuals one by one. WMDs actually require mass deaths from one event as a definition.
Canada needs to immediately stop military cooperation with US. Kick them out of NORAD unless they pay high rent. Stop threatening US enemies, and accepting them as our own.

Guess all hopsitals are terrorists.
dumblederp ( @dumblederp@aussie.zone ) 3•5 days agoI had fent for abdominal surgery.
Aussiemandeus ( @Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone ) 3•5 days agoI got it for a wrist reconstruction, the nurse said ill give you some fentayll now and I asked isn’t that the drug that’s killing everyone?
Her answer before I was off with the fairies.
“Yeah but you won’t know if you die”
dumblederp ( @dumblederp@aussie.zone ) 1•5 days agoThere’s heaps of stuff in hospitals that’ll kill you. I was given oxycontin for an abscess turned septic. Within an hour of it wearing off I was jonesing for another and I’ve never abused opiates recreationally. I’ve even taken a bunch of opium in Laos years ago and found it very easy to stop when I left. The oxy made me immediately want more. The fent I never felt going in and I didn’t want more once I was awake again.
lobut ( @lobut@lemmy.ca ) 16•6 days agoSerious question, should I get a gun?
JuxtaposedJaguar ( @JuxtaposedJaguar@lemmy.ml ) 6•6 days agoThe only resistance that could stand a chance against the US army would be organized by the Canadian government, in which case they’d provide you with the weapon.
brygphilomena ( @brygphilomena@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) English1•5 days agoI suspect there will be a sharp divide of the military if they were ordered to deploy within the US. And with that, probably some military hardware.
There will be insurgent forces throughout all 50 states. And probably disconnected. It will be like hydra. A lack of organization across the entire country could be a benefit as the military would have so many groups to deal with.
derpgon ( @derpgon@programming.dev ) 5•6 days agoNo, fentanyl might be more effective at mass destruction. /s (obviously)
Zerberr ( @Zerberr@lemmy.ca ) English4•6 days agoWhy? To give it liberals wneh carney proceeds with “buyback”?
Get a drone instead and learn to operate it
conditional_soup ( @conditional_soup@lemm.ee ) 3•5 days agoYeah, probably. There’s lots of good options, but it’s hard to go wrong with a 12-gauge shotgun.
Edit: and as someone else said, prepare for levee en masse. Get started now, grow a garden if you have space, start guerilla gardening if you don’t, teach yourself to forage, can, and fix shit like tears in clothing. For food crops: beans. Beans beans beans beans beans. And potatoes. You’ll hate life, but you’ll be alive to hate it.

If that time comes, remove as many as you can and don’t be a prisoner
oxysis ( @oxysis@lemm.ee ) English5•5 days agoI don’t want to be a prisoner but let’s be honest they already know what I have typed. It’s already been green lit to spy on queer folx for being queer.
That’s why you need to get a bottle of fash away and make sure they orally take the product for best results. Emergency use only.
To avoid getting banned, I’m not going to spell it out but you can read between the lines.

chuck ( @chuck@lemmy.ca ) 7•6 days agoHmm fenyntal as a weapon wasn’t on my list of war crimes to add to the Geneva checklist but we can throw it to the boys to figure out how to make it work and be novel enough to add a section or two to the next version
Perhapsjustsniffit ( @Perhapsjustsniffit@lemmy.ca ) 3•5 days agoIt was on mine. Open up the drug trade. Work with the Mexican gangs. Flood more than just fentanyl and create a massive drug crisis. Much bigger than the one that exists now. Hard to fight both at the same time and affects your ability to field an army.
chuck ( @chuck@lemmy.ca ) 2•5 days agoI mean all i had on my mind was poisoning a water supply with the stuff but I think that’s already on the list somewhere. Other idea was all pows would be turned into drug addicts using it but I assume that’s on the list already
Either way like I said we can kick the idea around the room for better ideas

GeeDubHayduke ( @GeeDubHayduke@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) English1•6 days agoWell, if we’re fantasizing, I vote we give ‘im the ol’ William Wallace treatment. Far more fitting for the chaos he’s caused. Make Elon watch with the assurance that he’s next.
