I said I’m annoyed that my grandmother thinks it’s funny to tell me he will and that I’m stressed by people willingly travellings to the states where I believe they could be in danger as non-americans visiting the states

I’m not suggesting the government do anything. I’m suggesting Canadians stop traveling to the Untied States

I mean yeah that first point is fine. and totally true, they have and more power to them.
your second however… do you realize that like the vermont national guard could take over your country? The canadian military is decades out of date in terms of equipment and training. I agree with you though that your government desperately needs to upgrade and increase it’s military spending, especially as it’s likely Russian will try to steal your arctic claims in the next 20-30 years.
