    You all need to be pressing your government to declare ICE a terrorist organization so that you can bar entry of any current or former member into the country.

    Fact of the matter is if ICE wanted to round up Canadians, most local police, at least in Alberta, would be helping to support ICE operations while making a canned statement on TV about the legality of their actions.

    I believe I, and any Canadian, have every right to kill a person who represents a foreign (hostile)government, and tries to abduct me, or those I care about in my country. As they do not represent my government, I believe I’m free and clear.

    No authority?

    No process?

    It is then an act of war, and we should respond accordingly with deadly force.

    Just sayin.

      From a grizzled, old, Scottish WWII veteran: “Young Man, I’ll tell ya something I learned in the war, never, ever underestimate those Canadians! They are the toughest soldiers I encountered in the war.”

      FTR: he also said he thought Germans were pansies, lol.

      Dead now, but he was a tough SOB, himself (I mean, he WAS Scottish, so that’s a pedigree right there).

        Many of us Canadians still have some Scottish blood. And I bet it works as well as it ever did.

          Hah I wish. Society is to soft abdicated to screens and comfort. As long as the masses are entertained almost anything can happen.

    We must prepare for potential ICE agressive incursions into our territory.
    We must be ruthless against fascism.

    Aha, so baaically if you get snatched and dragged into the US for suspected violation of US law, the American legal system is okay with it and you have limited avenues to defend yourself. Canada would have to “convince” the US to let you go. In other words, exercise higher caution around ICE than our neighbours do.

    I’d love to see them try. And I think many Canadians are also chomping at the bit to “see America try”. Lets see how far they get up here.

    The question is: would a Canadian citizen witnessing an ICE kidnapping happen in Canada be allowed to use up to lethal force to stop it?

      I don’t care. I’m not an American gimp. I’ll help a person being kidnapped or harassed in Canada. If it’s a US MAGA Nazi fuck, they’ll get a mother fucking double-double. I’ll take the chance.

      Fuck ICE.
