I wonder how people are supposed to access the Internet by Starlink when the regular 'net is shut down. Wouldn't they have to have Starlink receivers?

Right.
And we can do the same for Greenland, Colombia, Cuba, and Mexico.

I assume Canada is firmly in the empty threat category? Last time we took them on, they burned our White House ...

1. Are we discussing the topic? Good.
2. Are we going around and around in a fight? Let's stop doing that.
3. Is there some serious wrongdoing or relational injury? Let's address that, probably not in public and certainly not for show.

well the US started moving some heavy assets last week... so its actually a reasonable possibility that a strike is planned.
