Which is why we’ve had NORAD for 60+ years to jointly share defense responsibilities.

Bannon has been beating this drum for a while, and actually serious military planners on both sides of the border seem to agree that there is genuine merit to the fact that climate change is making Canada’s arctic far less secure than it has been. It would be one of the softer points to launch an attack on North America, if not the softest.
**To Bannon**, this means that a Russian or Chinese attack on Canada’s north would fold Canada instantly and pave the way for war in the United States. **Therefore, preemptive action in taking Canada first is justified** ***in his eyes***.
Of course, what should actually be done is just fortifying Canada’s north with more joint military assets
***And of course, before my Canadian friends misunderstand and come after me, of course Steve Bannon and “annex Canada is insane”***
