No one is making serious threats to invade Canada, that's ridiculous. We don't need maple syrup that badly.

Would you care to share a few actual quotes that show the obvious facetiousness of the US executive comments that have been made about invading Canada, and comparing them with the obvious seriousness of comments from the same administration about invading Venezuela?

This would be very helpful for foreigners who might have difficulties reading the difference between very public statements that seem quite similar from abroad.

Non-serious threats are just as bad.
