Canada’s chief of the defence staff Gen. Wayne Eyre says while the threat of a Russian invasion in Canada’s North is “very low” that might change in the decades to come.
Pressure is mounting on the federal government to formulate an Arctic strategy and make building up military force in the North a priority, since Russia’s unprovoked incursion of Ukraine.

Can Canadians have their 5 round semiautomatic AR-15 back 🤔
@FV really well I guess u don’t know the charter of rights! I guess u don’t stand for truth!
@FV You must be one of those dumcacksukers from the Fauci foundation.
@FV well we might need the convoy run the country someday.
We sent them to Ukraine.
All AR-15s are semiauto, that’s what mainly distinguishes them from M16s
What’s wrong with a military 25 years behind the times technologically in Canada?
Does Canada have Avangard hypersonics or does Russia? So who’s behind?
Thankfully, Canadians can make better-use out of outdated tech than most countries can with cutting edge tech.
No worries we have only Trudeau to thank …
He didn’t answer
Some just like to create panic and confusion. Stop with this nonsense.
That’s exactly what they’re doing
Build missile defense system facing the east and drones that may emit sonars and can detect nuclear submarines..
You gonna pay for that?
We don’t even have bullets for our guns lol under 20k soldiers. A third world country could take Canada if nato didn’t protect it
He Sounds like one of Trudeau’s talking heads …
HOW RIDICULOUS!!! 😭😭😭 Pure hatemongering…..unbelievable:)
Not to worry…we have Justin Trudeau looking after our country. Not to worry!
And he’s a strong male feminst too!
Better take more civilians guns and livelyhood.
Insurgents are raised not born.
When the neighbors kids are fighting so you trying to find an excuse to join the fight.
What on Earth is he talking about !!
They are already sailing through the North West Passage without permission !!
I came here to say this. Meanwhile we essentially have and continue to spend money on what is pretty much a freshwater navy that cant fully operate in the Arctic. Forget the sub fiasco… we dont even have proper Ice breakers yet!
Yes well, conquering Canada’s north leaves a few thousand kilometres to go . . .
TBH, Ottawa is justified to be concerned with a Russian invasion. All Putin has to do is land 500 transport trucks and drivers in BC or Labrador. No one will stop them from driving to Ottawa, and just from that, Trudeau and the Canadian federal government would collapse.
LOL
LOL!
That’s really funny. If only there was any truth to it. See what you’ve actually done is shown how free the freedumb convoy was. They were allowed and permitted to pass by many CAF facilities, with no intervention despite all the capacity to do so. The convoy and blockaders were allowed to do what they did. The CAF was deliberately not called because it’s not their role. Great job defeating your own argument though
(Labradorian here) Please don’t give them ideas *nervous laugh* 😅😅
Trudeau will freeze their bank accounts.
Make sure to check their vaxpass before they enter.
we would fight, might not win but we would go down swinging.
Maybe some patriotic truckers could help with the possible war effort….oh yeah, I forgot.
We have been talking about doing something in the arctic for as long as I can remember, and I’m 80.
Hopefully we can get Trudeau out of Office soon….
that is why every responsible Canadian should have firearm (with a permit and verifications)
