Seconding fetchmail. It's configuration is quite elaborate for a whole bunch of situations. I've used it in a small office situation to pull email from their legacy ISP's POP into an internal IMAP server, so they could have multiple clients sharing mailboxes. (And so they couldn't set weak passwords on an internet-connected system :-/ )

Are you posting in /b/ ? The moderators of /b/ are also freed from many of the usual rules, and they have often removed posts or issued bans for any and no reason at all.

I was about to say -- you probably don't want to connect the wifi antenna plugs of two cards into each other -- that'd probably overdrive each other's receiver and damage the cards or cause other issues, unless you had an attenuator in there somewhere.

It would be the point of no return for the USA, and the conclusive end to the "Pax Americana" . Invading a peaceful neighbor? Unthinkable for a "so-called" stable country. The rest of the world rally to Canada's side, there would be an effort to 'contain' the further damage we could do.
