Gotta do something as opposed to outright capitulation. If you were in Carney’s shoes at this point, what would you do? Try to diversify knowing that the results are going to be years down the road (?) or bend over and lube up the entire country? (Trumps rape of Venezuelan resources is gonna...

Canada isn’t trying to make Canada greater by invading and/or annexing through military or economic means Cuba or Venezuela or Greenland or America or Mexico or Botswana. Apples and oranges. Two different things and two different situations here.

Awesome. Brought into Canada, through already in place arrangements with New Zealand, and it would’ve gone through Canadian inspection on the way in, and inspection in New Zealand before it left etc…right? These are two different things. Apples and oranges. (YouTube & USDA recalls 30,000...

Washington went into last week’s trade talks with Canada looking for more than relief on dairy and alcohol. The administration wanted Ottawa to complete its F-35 purchase, buy American radar planes as part of joining President Trump’s Golden Dome missile defense project and grant the U.S. a...

The rapid demise of Canada-U.S. official relations, marked by fury in one nation and indifference or bewilderment in the other, suggests there will be no quick reconciliation or return to something resembling normal. In the span of a few days this mercantile dispute – seeded by the new American...

…& Yet it was Carney that swooped in at Trumps request and brokered the Sweetheart deal between Qatar and Jared Kushner when he got in over his head with a real estate deal at 666 5th Ave. Carney is on both sides of the fence here. Brookfield Asset Management later reached a deal in 2018 to...

9/11 was Settler violence? Blaming the attacks on settler violence oversimplifies Al-Qaeda's extremist ideology, which aimed to force a total withdrawal of American influence from the Middle East and overthrow secular Arab governments, but ok. Anyway, Iran left the door open to diplomacy on...

(YouTube & CIA chief routinely asked Russia not to routinely share intel with Iran routinely during routine visit to Moscow)

Are you in favour of that? Just curious…The federal government is replacing its counter-tariffs on seafood with 50 per cent levies on a series of other American goods, according to Finance Minister Frankie Bubbles office. Newly added to Canada’s list of counter-tariffs include: Wood charcoal...

I did miss that whole thread that started and ended the same day on a Wednesday just over three weeks ago that only yourself posted into. Still missing it. Do you have an opinion on the CBC with the use of the term terrorist or terrorism since we’re coming up on the anniversary of 9/11 in the...

Trump has decided to ignore international law by blowing up boats in the Caribbean, installing friendly puppets who will allow the U.S. to seize their resources and is now attempting to use economic coercion to try to force Canada to give up its sovereignty and accept a status as a kind of 21st...

So almost, but not quite, half a century ago, with a minority government, that lasted nine months. I actually forgot about him.
