56: As Parasites Might in your Blood

This week we are discussing all things CANADA! Specifically, why does President Trump claim it is a "great contender" to become the 51st state? What is it about the US's northern neighbor that is so attractive to the would-be empire builder president? How is this issue playing out in Canada itself? Would a military conquest of Canada result in a brutal insurgency that might destroy the United States itself? All these questions and more are tackled in this episode. We also discuss the recent USA vs Canada Four Nations hockey match and its attendant, immediate fights, as well as the breaking news of a plane crash in Toronto.Articles mentioned in the episode:The New York Times on Trump's Desire for CanadaAisha Ahmad on what a Canadian Insurgency might look likeFinancial Times on Whether Trump is Serious about annexing CanadaThe CBC on the potential electoral fallout of Trump's tariff threatsPolitico on what Trump "really wants" from CanadaSend us Fan Mailhttps://www.instagram.com/theendoftheworldwms/https://youtube.com/@TheEndoftheWorldwMS?si=xmj-2e0s58JdN8-Bhttps://linktr.ee/endoftheworldwithmichaelandstu
