I have no use for banksters either. RRSPs were about the only tax deduction I have now. Income tax refunds go back into the pot. It is only the stuff in RRSPs I am somewhat concerned about, and only because of the looming 71st bday.

Canada to impose tariffs of up to 25% on vehicles imported from U.S. Wednesday, escalating trade war — The Globe and Mail
Up to 60% of cars purchased in Canada each year are imported from the United States, making it the largest export market for American-made cars
Didn’t say they should be. Was wondering if Trump was just trying to get a jump on anew Chinese territory before it officially became one.
It’s only April 8th so far. 1383 days to go in this current term, assuming he doesn’t take a 3rd term.
As long as you don’t die , just redeem a portion every year .
While Canada isn't being targeted by Trump's global tariffs, the country is being hit by U.S. automobile, steel and aluminum tariffs and still faces the ongoing threat of economywide fentanyl-related tariffs.
Ottawa added to its retaliatory measures today in response to the automobile duties by implementing similar tariffs on vehicles imported from the United States.
Unlike the American duties, Canada will not tariff auto parts or Mexican vehicles and components.
On Tuesday, even as Trump boasted that dozens of countries have reached out to try to make deals, he also said the tariffs will stay in place to provide revenue.
Trump's attempt to realign global trade is causing cracks to appear in Republican solidarity, with some senators questioning Tuesday whether it was the right move.

China retaliated against new U.S. tariffs Wednesday, hours after Washington imposed a 104 per cent levy on Chinese goods, as a trade war between the world’s two largest economies threatened to spin out of control.
In a statement, the Chinese Finance Ministry said a new 84 per cent tariff would apply to all US imports from April 10, up from a previously announced 34 per cent levy.
Speaking at a government forum in Beijing, Chinese President Xi Jinping called for greater regional co-operation and emphasized China’s diplomatic and trade ties with its neighbours, as state media unleashed a barrage of criticism against the U.S.
“Our country’s relations with its neighbours are currently at their best since modern times,” Mr. Xi said, calling for the “strengthening of industrial and supply chain co-operation.”
While he did not directly reference the U.S., Mr. Xi’s remarks – reported by state media hours after Mr. Trump’s tariffs, including a new 104-per-cent levy on Chinese exports, went into force – come as Beijing is positioning itself as a rational, pro-globalization alternative to an increasingly unpredictable Washington.
China retaliates with 84% levy hours after 104% U.S. tariffs hit — The Globe and Mail
State funds prop up markets and state media vows Beijing will not back down in trade war with U.S.
“If Washington believes that ramping up pressure can compel Beijing to give in, it is engaging in wishful thinking,” the editorial said. “The United States is far from immune to the economic wounds of the trade war it has ignited. American markets are already feeling the strain, businesses face growing uncertainties, and the risk of recession is ballooning.”
PS....how long before the people topple Xi?

E.U. imposes up to 25 percent levy on U.S. goods, in first swing at Trump’s tariffs — The Washington Post
The European Union has pursued a phased and relatively restrained response to U.S. tariffs, as its leaders weigh the risk of escalation.
We are already in a recession. The data has just been manipulated to hide that fact.View attachment 28644

I lost about that since January 1.
The globullists did say we would own nothing and be happy. When does the be happy about poverty part start?
I'm not worried about. I won't be dieing poor because of it. It sucks but I never complained about its growth on the backs of the poor.
