Candace Owens called for the US to invade Canada to stop Justin Trudeau cracking down on trucker

protests

Right-wing provocateur Candace Owens drew criticism Sunday for saying that the US should invade Canada in response to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's crackdown on the trucker protests there.

"STOP talking about Russia. Send American troops to Canada to deal with the tyrannical reign of Justin Trudeau Castro," wrote Owens, a supporter of Donald Trump known for stirring controversy online.

"He has fundamentally declared himself dictator and is waging war on innocent Canadian protesters and those who have supported them financially," she wrote of Trudeau.

At least she has nothing to fear if there's a zombie apocalypse.

but she soon found herself facing backlash from her fans who disagreed with the assessment.

"For the first time, the big game focused on rap and hip-hop music...(She tweeted), 'This is an excellent Super Bowl halftime performance. Undeniable hip-hop and R&B excellence.'

"However...a number of Owens' fans confronted her on her praise...One user told Owens...'Your fanbase doesn't really adhere to this music, pal. This might be your most controversial take to them'..."

No wonder she had to come up with an even MORE "controversial take" ASAP: it sure explains her doubling down on her doubling down!

Canada has the edge. Their long distance sniping percentage beats even the US. The world record holder for longest distance shooting is a Canadian.

10. American snipers are still not sure how they made that shot

The longest sniper kill ever recorded was roughly 2.2 miles, and the rifle these guys used had a maximum effective range of 1800 meters - a bit over one mile. The 75th Rangers estimate the bullet drop on this shot to be 170 meters...which means to make the kill, they had to elevate the muzzle like it was a howitzer rather than a rifle.

The USA is not Russia, and Canada is not the Ukraine.

We like Canadians, and Canadians like us.

So, get lost.

Would that be the innocent Canadian protesters who threatened to attack tow truck drivers, or the innocent Canadian protesters who tried burning down an apartment building they'd duct-taped the doors shut on because someone who lived there asked them to stop honking their air horns all night?
