Trump is guided by God, punishing American companies that have abused workers in foreign countries for decades and ordering them to return home. Thank you Mr. Trump and to the Holy Spirit,

But BLM are terrorists because someone broke a window. And someone threw a rock at a Tesla so the left are violent. They invade the capital, they denigrate institutions and spread misinformation. But they're the good guys...

The years-long trial of Tamara Lich & Chris Barber cost Canadian taxpayers $10 million. To charge these two with "mischief". This has got to be the worst use of court resources and taxpayer dollars in Canadian history. An absolute embarrassment and shame on the Crown. "THE PROCESS IS THE PUNISHMENT." Whether you agree with the verdict or not, this case shows that the federal government politicized our court system. It was never about the law, it was about making an example out of anyone who challenged the government. Tamara Lich BEAT 5 of 6 charges Chris Barber BEAT 5 of 7 charges 1- Did counsel to commit mischief not committed (STAYED) 2- Did counsel to commit indictable offence of intimidation not committed (BOTH FOUND NOT GUILTY) 3- Did counsel to commit indictable offence of obstruct police not committed (BOTH FOUND NOT GUILTY) 4- Did resist or willfully obstruct police officer in lawful execution of duty (BOTH FOUND NOT GUILTY) 5- Did wrongfully and without lawful authority for purposes of compelling one or more person to abstain from something they had a lawful right to do... block or obstruct one or more highways (BOTH FOUND NOT GUILTY) 6- Did commit Mischief (BOTH FOUND GUILTY) 7- Did counsel commit disobey court order not committed (CHRIS BARBER FOUND GUILTY; TAMARA LICH NOT CHARGED WITH THIS)

Pfft On a 5-year basis.Yeah no girl is ugly if you zoom out far enough, eh? Also are you trying to seriously gaslight us into believing nobody complained about the economy during the pandemic and supply chain issues?

LMAO the numbers are the same everywhere loser. You don’t know shit in real time or delayed time So can you link me to where Trump promised he would destroy the stock market and economy for half his presidency before it got better because I can only find clips of him saying the markets and economy would take off ON DAY ONE and where he said the economic success Americas experienced in 2024 under BIDEN was because markets knew he was going to win the election and the Trump economy had already started. As usual you’re a shameless cult follower who changes his story every 5 minutes to defend DEAR LEADER even in the face of the obvious of t Don’t worry neither does @Delugebecause it never happened

ExFlyer stands for nothing and would never stand for anything. He's no different than Trudeau who failed to meet with fellow Canadians, the truckers. Both spineless tossers.

Put up, shut up or fùck off. No one died from protesting in Ottawa at all. You're completely full of shit.

I swear this guy is 12 years old 🤣

Rideau Centre was shut down for weeks. If you owned one of the 175 business located there or one of the laid off employees or had to listen to constant horn honking for days on end, had to wade through these people to get to your home or business every day you might have a different perspective. The Ottawa police department put policing costs at $800,000 per day, paid for by local tax payers. If no charges were laid, what is to stop any other group from doing the same thing. How would you feel if your place was taken over by BLM or Palestine protestors and shut down your business or cost you your job for several weeks.?

It's bizarre to me that no Liberal supporters question why the Liberal gov't went so hard after normal citizens but let violent home invaders and fentanyl traffickers out on bail within hours. Priorities?

Oh wow. You've never even taken a college level economics course, have you? Like, none of that is Austrian, Keynesian or anything recognizable to economic theory. It's just a bunch of crap you spit out. First, you don't pay for tax cuts. The money wasn't theirs to begin with. Second, the tariffs (in large part) aren't permanent. They are restorative. We have trade imbalances with nearly every country. Giving domestic production a cost advantage is like paying yourself from your paycheck. When/if a country lowers their punitive tariffs, so do we. In the end, a fairer trade is established.

Coyne's excellent. He's one of the main reasons I ever got a Globeandmail subscription. This is a conservative that didn't join the circus. Where are they now in politics?

One thing is now obvious, Trump is worse than Covid for the world's economies.

Sure are. And this is just brainless. As a guy explained on BNN this evening, under Trump's tariffs an Iphone is going to cost over $2000. And when asked what it would cost if made in the US he said about $3500. The work done by Apple subcontractors in China like Foxconn is not exactly great. Their workers throw themselves off the building! You won't get Americans to work those kinds of hours, and even for an 8hr shift you'll have to pay them $25hr - at least and spend billions on the factory and parts makers. What are you invested in, cocaine? When the market goes down 2000 points everyone's investments suffer. Unless they have none.

Yes, individuals who are on the political left right now are attacking Teslas, vandalizing them, torching them, and they are openly cheering it all on during late-night talk shows. To sit here pretending like this targeted violence is not politically motivated by one side of the spectrum right now is just dishonest.

Logical fallacy futures are actually down also...

Yes, we are smart enough to understand you are turning multiple complex variables into an overly simplistic single-variable analysis to illogically and wrongly conclude it is all the fault of Republican presidents.

You mean they're someone else's slaves? We've all heard you talk about your slave-zuchinni here before bud, too late to pretend otherwise now

I expressed shock to hear someone tell me they'd just got out of jail for car theft. Again? That's like the ninth time you've been jailed for that! Well you gotta do what you're good at, he replied.

Well I’m closer to 80 and 27 is still a man. By then I had been living on my own for eight years and married fo four.

Died because of what happened? Horseshit.

OMG!!!!! Some Ottawa residents and businesses within a few block radius were inconvenienced??!!??? Yes, that is definitely the reasons I would like see Canadians' charter rights violated, businesses ordered to shut down, the Emergency Act invoked and hundreds of millions of tax dollars spent on court cases against the protesters. Blah Blah Blah.....and NOT ONE proof cite. Ex-Flyer loves that. You can say whatever you want in support of the Liberal gov't and he laps it up like a dog eating its own vomit. Well, apparently Ontarians are perfectly okay with all that - it's been going on for a year and half. The cops bring them donuts. Jihadis just took over McGill University and NONE of the Liberals or their supporters have any kind of problem with that. But Canadians protesting for their Charter Rights and jobs? VERY VERY BAD. Good Gawd, you Liberal brainwashed dumba$$es are total kooks! 🤣

Tell us without telling us? You just did! Lol A. You have it backward. Low price elasticity (as you described Diamonds) means that demand is not very responsive to changes in price. B. Diamonds and eggs are both famously inelastic. Again, meaning that demand stays relatively consistent even as prices increase--but obviously for very different reasons. You should probably request a refund from Google University. Meanwhile, cost, price and price elasticity are all different things. Don't conflate them. If costs go up, prices will go up not necessarily linearly, but with big tariffs on consumer goods it's both obvious and significant. The degree to which demand is affected or not affected by changes in price is the elasticity. -- Low elasticity doesn't mean the prices haven't gone up, it just means people are still paying the higher price. And high elasticity doesn't mean that prices don't go up, it just means potential consumers fall out of the market more quickly. High elasticity and falling demand can restrain cost-driven price increases by shifting pressure to margins instead of price, but even that flexibility is limited to the size of the margins. If the seller has to raise the price of blenders to remain profitable in the face of increased costs, the consumer can indeed choose not to pay the higher price. Demand goes down, creating downward pressure on price, but only within margins. Sellers can't sustainably sell below cost. The consumer who can't bear or chooses not to bear the increased prices and falls out of the market is also worse off, being denied the utility of the blender. Even though they didn't pay the higher price in dollars they indeed "pay the price" for artificial cost increases.

Yes, a plan to bring back manufacturing to the US requires a long-term strategy, and Trump is not a long-term-strategy kind of guy. He thinks and acts only in the short-term. Trump says his tariffs will induce the onshoring of manufacturing back to the US, and at the same time raise $6 trillion dollars in revenue. These two things cannot happen at the same time! He only uses them as talking points to cover his true intentions – which is to use tariffs as bargaining chips to get what he wants out of other countries. He loves tariffs for one reason – for the power he thinks they gave him to bend other countries to his will. For companies to suddenly invest the time and resources into building in the US requires a guarantee that the tariffs are permanent, and Trump has given every indication that they are negotiable. That kind of uncertainty does not invite long-term investment.

So that's why you joined. Well done.

That was me and the missus in 2008. When our financial statements arrived in the mail we bunged them in a drawer unopened. Stopped listening to the doom and gloom on TV news etc. What we did not do was panic and sell. Two years later everything had recovered with a small but tangible increase. Hang in there.

You certainly do buy a lot of bullshit. Raising the cost to import goods may or may not make the cost to consumers go up? Jeebus. That was a huge mystery.

Yup, they should have assigned court charges to Lich and Barber - the millions supporters threw at this helped drag things out way longer than needed too.

West doesn't understand the difference between a sideways moving market and one that declines precipitously in two days based on the whims of ONE MAN. 🤮

More like...Import the third world, become the third world.

..>>>>>>>>>>>Whoosh>>>>>>>>>>>>>>doink. Just ask robo about his IRA.

The markets losing ten percent of their value in two days with no end in sight is now projection. You really are in la la land.

There still is. We need to destroy all of it.

Interesting interview with conservative columnist Andrew Coyne on the conservative platform The Hub. I don’t agree with all of Coyne’s opinions but I often find his analyses informative and thoughtful and most importantly fair Andrew Coyne on Poillievre vs. Carney, Trump, and the future of the conservative movement “Globe and Mail columnist Andrew Coyne joins Hub Dialogues to talk about why the Conservatives seem to be struggling to find their footing in an election that doesn’t include Justin Trudeau, but does include Donald Trump. He also talks to us about Trump, the future of journalism, and his upcoming book,“The Crisis of Canadian Democracy”, which explains why our democratic institutions are not as strong as we believe them to be.”

I'm going to quietly wait for you to admit you were wrong on this statement.

Holy crap @Legato , looks like you lit a short fuse on a stick of stupidmite with that one. It can't, but their damn advertising team can. "makes your bowel more regular" my ass!! (so to speak)

You might be correct about that lol

You are always full of excuses. King is a great Canadian patriot, where unlike you, a commie little troll coward who is too terrified to answer such simple questions, poor baby. King is the man, man. Live with it, comrade. 🤣 You are the one that needs diapers for your constant diarrhea of the mouth. Go away commie, you are stinking up my computer. I think that i will call you stink bug from now on. Works for me. 🤣

The only Americans not worried are the maga cultists. Like toddlers, they don't have enough knowledge to be able to sense the danger. But everyone else.... I was worried when donald got elected a second time. But even I never forsaw the enormity of the clusterf__k that donalds st_pidity has unleashed upon us in such a short amount of time.

Lol keep dreaming. Relocation costs billions of dollars and takes more years than Trump will be in office. By the time companies complete the decision making process to move a factory Trump will be out of office. Plus his erratic actions have proven his word is meaningless he could sign a deal with you one day and welcome you with open arms then completely violate it the next and stab you in the back And USMCA is not intact. Trump still in violation on auto, steel, aluminum and he said there would be more violations to come in other sectors like pharma and lumber

You do know in order for something to be classified it actually has to be marked classified a reporter can not just deem it classified. So until you can show me the classified markings stfu.

One Phone Call Later.....

That's not entirely accurate. Majority of the mainstream media does not meet with it in a neutral environment nor do they talk about what he wants to talk about. And they will edit and show only what they feel they want the public to see. This is completely different than Justin Trudeau for example. That's why many of his press conferences, o'Toole's press conferences, and Scheers press conferences, Wound up basically being hostile confrontations with reporters who were more interested in asking questions that would be embarrassing rather than talk about what the leader came to talk about. It is very very hard for the conservative leader to actually get significant amounts of air time and has been since harper's day. The media either doesn't report, or they snip and paste either tiny fragments or commentary that makes him look bad. That's why he's always relied on social media and youTube etc etc to get his message out.
