Still no Governor General

Let me ask something hypothetical. If China comes calling on its debt one day to any country, and that country says “go fly a kite” what then?

Every big box store will have to close.

It's likely too difficult for Trudeau to pick someone while under house arrest lol.
The U.S. is predicted to say bye bye to the central banks and move to the quantum financial system with the roll out of the great awakening.
We'll see.

It'll depend on the country. If they have a well-equipped,well-skilled military and a tough minded government,China will simply take the loss and lick their wounds. If it's a small backwater like Canada with a government the likes of Trudeau et al,get ready for the Red flag with the gold stars to fly over Ottawa.

They are buying it up fast...

National Bank financial analyst Peter Routledge, who compiled the data, said that Chinese homebuyers occupied 33 percent of the total housing volume in Vancouver’s real estate market, and 14 percent of purchases in Toronto – or about $6.7 billion of the $47 billion in deals.
In the United States, Chinese investments for real estate properties skyrocketed from just $4.1 billion in 2009 to almost $29 billion in 2015.

I don't put too much into real estare sales by Chinese nationals other than them fleeing communist rule in Hong Kong,Shanghai. A million or more people have immigrated to Canada in the last 25 years bringing trillions of dollars with them. That started before Hong Kong reverted to Chinese rule in 1999. They were smart enough to see the writing on the wall. Who can blame them? A far better bellweather is China buying up large amounts of natural resource corporations.
Now,back on subject,it's not beyond the possibility of Her Majesty appointing a G-G. Prince Harry would be the logical choice.

Trimmer,
Quebec would go ballistic if that were to happen. Which might be a good thing considering JT would get blamed and they'd lose a ton of votes.

Chinese nationals are buying up all available real estate in the City and they are buying up any large acreage in the country they can find.

LOL There's a half billion of them. They'd sacrifice 60K per day without even blinking.

It is estimated that China has a stockpile of around 320 nuclear warheads. These weapons can be delivered by air, sea and land – completing a nuclear triad once China's strategic bombers are deployed.Apr. 2, 2020

Maybe armed with information you will not be so cocky about American nukes.

Hahaha, if China decides to push the big red button north America is screwed. The US has nothing and Canada, even less. Our only safeguard is being so vast.

All of this country would be permanently devastated with as few as five 20megaton bombs airburst at 10 miles over their targets of the most populated areas,Vancouver,Edmonton,Toronto,Ottawa and Montreal.75% of the entire population would be instantly vaporized......and they'd be the lucky ones.

The GTA is sitting between a few of the military bases or targets lol.
The red button day would be very devastating, felt throughout the world it would leave us nearly extinct.

Ha ha, I sometimes enjoy these "what if" things.
Personally, I think it will come. How and when, no idea other than I'll likely be wormfood.
Nuclear option?
While possible, I wouldn't bet on it. If it's going to happen, it's going to be for our water. Not sure how poisoning the very thing you want is a good idea
:)

And what a place to start it at the military games. A bunch of healthy people who won't all die to spread it all around world without any notice.
It would be the perfect place..

Well, I suppose it is a bit odd JT would invite them here, in order to be trained and get a feel for winter warfare.
Especially when, they are physically closer to Russia, as well is sorta friendly.Climate, geography. Russia/Canada??
So why here?
Not that a few dozen getting a feel will help.

Our soldiers would never turn their weapons on our citizens.
A UN mission would have no problem in doing just that.
China has many assets in Canada. Trudeau gave them a grand tour of the country last year.
"China’s unusual choice to invest both capital and personnel, however, has created suspicion that Chinese peacekeeping efforts are tied to its economic interests: in other words, China sends peacekeepers primarily to protect its economic assets abroad. And, since representatives from UN member countries negotiate the MOUs to determine “details of the personnel, major equipment and self-sustainment services that the contributing country will provide,” the opportunity exists for China to determine where, when, and how its contributions will be deployed."

Turns out to be a handsome sum too..

For these vital services, Canadians pay $22 million every year, including the governor-general’s nearly $300,000 salary (which was finally subject to income tax in 2012 but simultaneously hiked to ensure minimal discomfort). As last year’s report of the secretary to the governor general noted, “six federal government departments and agencies are also mandated to support the activities of the Governor General,” adding another $30 million to the tab.
