OK I don't trust any government agencies with a track record of lying to us.
Trump is Doing Something Good

Not really. We have a globalist moron that wants to destroy Canada and make it into a playground for the idle rich of the world. . Trump, at least wants to bring blue collar jobs to the rust belt instead of importing cheap crap. The fact that this most probably will not work is beside the point. At least he is trying to do what he said he would do.
So no Government at all.
Got'cha.
So... how do you solve for the fact that you live in a country that has a government that isn't you to run things? Life ambition to just bitch and complain?
So. . . when he fails, you're going to slap him on the shoulder and say "Ya gave it a hell of a try, champ?"
Yay.
The proof is in the rust belt.
I think the next four years with Trump will be hard ones.
No trying about it.
He is starting off on the right foot , and actually trying to accomplish what he promised on the campaign trail . Refreshing to see someone say what they will do and do as they say . Have we ever had one of those in Canada ?
Democrats are in such panic mode.. what are they afraid of Elon finding - illegal payouts, slush funds for senators, BIDEN's billions.
This is temporary because China dared to fight back with the USA.
No one ever denied that. But he is doing exactly what he said he would.
And, he is forcing Canada to do some much needed housekeeping, like removing interprovincial trade barriers.
We are subsidizing the free shipping. China gas "developing nation" postal rate classification.
Bravo Trump!!!!
Canada's turn coming soon.. 500,000 illegals buh bye.
Canada's turn coming soon.. 500,000 illegals buh bye.
Are the planes carrying a new load of illegals back to Canaduh to keep the bureaucraps busy and the liberal owned hotels afloat?
I don’t think Trump has done America any favours in all honesty. The United States had a damn good run, but now the Americans are retreating from the world, turning in on themselves, venturing out only for the purposes of spectacle, or for the dumb excitement of causing a scene. On our side of the 49th parallel, we’re stuck with as grave a crisis as this country has ever faced.
As much as some say “It’s over, or it was never gonna happen, etc…” something ended in the last three days. Perhaps the “unintended consequences” type thing, and there’s no going back to the way things were or there damn well shouldn’t be.
It may be that now, we’ve got only 30 days.
That’s how long Trump has given us to decipher and satisfy his shifting, nonsensical demands. The reprieve appears to have been really a face-saving measure, an off-ramp he took after his inane tariff-everybody ideas took such a drubbing from the American Manufacturers Association, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the Wall Street Journal and so on.
Reiterating his determination to force our annexation as America’s 51st state if we fail to submit to a crippling 25 per cent tariff on southbound Canadian exports — with a 10 per cent exception for Alberta oil, which he pretends his country doesn’t need — it’s come down to a jumble of interim commitments about border security. There’s even a provision requiring the appointment of a “fentanyl czar,” which sounds like something out of a script for South Park.
But we’re just now emerging from a decade shaped by a prime ministerial retard who craved the American limelight and sought it out obsessively. From the beginning, Trudeau championed every annoying fad and frivolous cause taken up by American “progressives” whose policy preoccupations are now being turned to rubble from the wrecking-ball onslaught of Donald Trump’s weirdly-mutated Republican Party.
So now we’re stepping out into this strange new world too reliant on foreign trade, too reliant on the United States and too reliant on oil, after enduring 10 years of being subjected to what you could call a federally funded National Demoralization Strategy.
It’s impossible to say what comes next. But there’s no turning back now, or at least there shouldn’t be after our neighbour and ally dangled an ax over our necks. Climbing into bed further with America at this point isn’t the answer.

Do we have the will to persist in the resistance to American hegemony that was at the heart of our founding prime minister's grand visions?
