    Trump 2.0

    You do understand that….Tariffs beget reciprocal tariffs, & that domestic tariffs upon Americans are (in Trumps mind) there to reduce demand for the Canadian products in America that he’s putting them on, right?

    U.S. President Donald Trump often talks about Canada. Frequently disparagingly, and lately menacingly. But it's not often he opines on the country's internal politics. He broke from that pattern in a just-published interview with a U.S. conservative writer who asked him about the country's...

    Liberals bring out the Knives

    http://apple.news/ABI5Uw-wyS1mPuDXEBkQDlA OTTAWA — Liberal leadership candidate Mark Carney has not yet resigned from his multiple international board positions, despite claiming this week that he had stepped down from all his roles to be “all in” on his bid to become Canada’s next prime...

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    Trump and Zelenskiy talked over each other as Trump insisted Zelenskiy was losing the Ukraine war and said, "people are dying, you're running low on soldiers." He threatened to withdraw U.S. support in a standoff in front of reporters ahead of a planned signing ceremony for a revenue-sharing...

    Your guess is as good as mine. He may be hearing about this in the newspaper himself.

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    Because that story is from a Thursday? Is it different today already? Is it different from Wednesday? Not being facetious but seriously… it’s like somebody flipping a coin every four hours.😁

    Liberals bring out the Knives

    Borders plural meaning? I guess technically Canada has borders. It also shares a border with Greenland (so Denmark). Nobody seems to talk about that Greenland border being porous though…& if Trump annexes Greenland, we can start worrying about guns and drugs and shit coming in from that...

    Unlikely bromance as Starmer meets Trump at White House

    Two dudes can each claim that they’re taller than the other, but are they? Do you see what I’m saying here? Can you smell what I’m cooking? Just because they both claim that doesn’t make it true or real or even reasonable or logical. You and I can both say that we’re each older than the...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    Reciprocal tariffs are in response to tariffs. If there aren’t tariffs, then there can’t be “reciprocal” tariffs. Who should we blame for these tariff threats the last month or two against Canada and Mexico? Putin? China? Ukraine? Israel?

    Unlikely bromance as Starmer meets Trump at White House

    How can both Britain & the US have a trade SURPLUS with each other? How does that math work? That’s like two guys both being taller than each other.

    The Tarriff Hype.

    You know, if Pete happens to be right on this…& this tariff shit blows over…& Trump is just getting his jollies from this because his penis (which he hasn’t seen in years) just doesn’t work anymore…I think I know how Canada should respond. If this shit is dropped, Canada should announce...

    Canada 51st State

    A top White House official has threatened to redraw the Canadian border amid Donald Trump’s ambition to turn the country in America’s “51st state”. Peter Navarro, one of Donald Trump’s closest advisers, is pushing US negotiators to discuss reworking the border with their Canadian counterparts...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    So…The tariff threat tightrope drew tauter Thursday, while Britain, an erstwhile ally, threw Canada under the bus in its own rush to avoid Trump's tariffs… just like the cowards in Ottawa did with Mexico a month ago. U.S. President Donald Trump doubled down on his threat to slap...

    Questions can sure be asked of him though in Parliament, assuming Parliament gets to actually happen….& he could have other ministers (MP’s of the Liberal stripe) answer for him as he’s up there with his opera glasses.

    The Tarriff Hype.

    Yep. I’ve got a son-in-law working at a mill in the Vernon area. It won’t be doing him any favours I’m sure.

    The Tarriff Hype.

    Well, you could potentially add 25% onto the 14 1/2% for that tariff

    Parliament would be interesting at this point. Questions across the floor that he could answer or not answer… but I would love to see that happen before an election takes place.
