It's a Sovereign nation he has a right.
But for God sake get rid of NAFTA and put up duties and tariffs and bring back manufacturers..
Start selling our oil to Canadians, but we have a bunch of Globaists on CanCon that believe everyone should be nice to Canada
NAFTA is gone.

Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'

and he is a lot more humane and people caring than Trump. He CARES about the people , thee system and being CDN..........while Trump cares only for himself. Sorry, but it is true.


Well, I will admit "close". There is another side of the picture that I feel has been mostly lost during this Covid crisis. Trump is 8 months from having an election to try to win. Trump's actions right now may have more to do with his advisors and handlers than with Trump himself. The adviso to quit selling masks to Canada is probably just a ploy, knowing full well it won't actually happen but will get him a lot mileage for the election from his supporters. We just get to see what we are meant to see. He can be pretty crafty.

PM's virus adviser warns Britain might still need to adopt herd immunity in its fight against coronavirus as lockdown measures have 'painted the country into a corner' - after UK death toll soars past China's to 3,605 with more than 38,000 cases




Boris Johnson's coronavirus lockdown has pinned Britain 'into a corner' with no obvious exit strategy, according to a senior Downing Street scientific adviser who braced the country for a return to a policy of herd immunity.

Professor Graham Medley, the government's chief pandemic modeller, said the only viable path through the health emergency would be to let people become infected so they are no longer vulnerable.

He warned the current restrictions would not steer the country out of the pandemic - only prevent a short-term spread - but would bring the economy to its knees.

Mounting unemployment, domestic violence and burgeoning mental health issues could be widespread if the normal functioning of society remains paralysed, Prof Medley forecast.

Describing a trade-off between harming the lives of the young versus safeguarding the wellbeing of the elderly, the scientist said the Prime Minister had a 'big decision' to make on April 13 when the lockdown will be reviewed.

Yet noises from Number 10 suggests the current curbs to everyday life will not be lifted, with Health Secretary Matt Hancock yesterday urging the public to 'keep their discipline'.

He begged Britons to stay indoors ahead of a warm weekend as the UK announced 684 more Covid-19 fatalities, hiking the death toll to 3,605 - surpassing that reported by China - and more than 38,000 cases.

China’s real death toll is in the tens of thousands.

Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'

absolutely spot on.
Is there a facility in Canada that can do this? All Harmac makes is raw pulp. It still has to be made into some kind of paper first before it can be made into masks.the only place I know I'd Scott paper in Richmond but they most likely cannot take on more raw products because they have their own source of supply.. for that matter I don't know if their facility can take softwood pulp.

Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'

As it says, it COULD be.

And the coronavirus death rate from almost every other country isn't accurate either. Italy's is wildly exaggerated.


When are you going to stop being an idiot? If you are a person compromised by age, infirmity or bad immune system, this disease can KILL you - dummy!

Some people just can't stand someone just saying it as it is.

Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'

The UK's death toll rises by 708 to 4313.

The number of new infections, however, has risen by 3735, the smallest increase for four days. So it looks like it may now be in a decline.

Of course, we don't know how accurate the figures are.
