Your white hat is too tight... Oil/gas isn't going anywhere as long as anyone alive today is still on this planet. Don't worry, there will be gas to fill your ICE vehicle in 10 years. Not much of an argument saying it's a liberal thing why auto manufacturers are going EV. GM is targeting 2035 to be 100% EV. They sell ~63k vehicles in Canada of the ~2.7m they produce annually so highly doubtful they're doing this because of liberals. Every other manufacturer is going to be fully EV sometime in the 2030's. Don't worry, enough gas will around for your ICE and cross burning parties.

I'm quite certain America is pleading it's the victim here. Its terrible how Canada has treated us. Awwww. Fùcking pussies.

Trump and his staff knew about this tax long ago. This is just another Trump negotiation tactic to show his brood he is King LOL I think ya'll need to know what the digital tax really is.. It is not a Canadian company income tax, they pay that too. The digital services tax applies at a rate of 3% on revenue earned from: Certain digital services that rely on engagement, data, and content contributions of Canadian users Certain sales or licensing of Canadian user data Canadian digital services revenue is calculated on a calendar year basis and is earned from: Online marketplace services Online advertising services Social media services Certain sales of user data https://www.canada.ca/en/services/taxes/excise-taxes-duties-and-levies/digital-services-tax/about-tax.html https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/D-1.65/

Ha Ha Ha What really sucks is to have such a simple mind as you LOL LOL LOL

Those the jobs where you wear a white sheet and a big pointy dunce cap?

What?? You're American?

Victory for Trump. Anchor babies are now no longer anchors...and the lower court injunction chickenshit is done. Happy Friday Libbies...

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/final-day-scotus-decisions-brings-wave-history-making-rulings Looks like far left activists on the bench are wrong when they issue nonsensical injunctions on the Trump administration

That sounds like something your dad probably said to you.

The problem is global and is eliciting a global response. Many countries have noticed that foreign high tech firms have used the internet to make huge profits from ads etc. while paying little to no tax locally because of tax residence jiggery-pokery, quite unlike the local media businesses they have wiped out. Digital services taxes are simply a rational way to make everyone pay their fair share. To say that the cost of the tax will be passed onto the consumer and should therefore be abandoned is weak beer indeed. That could be claimed of any corporate tax and is hardly a serious argument for giving up on taxing companies. The high tech billionaires have pressured Trump to pressure us to give up on this. They may succeed in Canada but not elsewhere over the longer term. Voters can see what is happening and they simply won’t put up with it no matter what the tax accountants say.

The cult is mind numbing, truly f*cking mind numbing.... Their cult leader is 79 years old, out of shape, poor eating habits, and leads a sedentary lifestyle. Only a matter of time before he expires... Hopefully the cult following expires with him.

It’s not wrong, everything I said about MAGA is correct amd Im willing to acknowledge that it applies to many/most democrats as well. As for everything else, the TL;DR is that 1) EU and UK already have a similar tax 2) it is a Canadian transaction conducted in Canadian dollars with Canadian consumers via Canadian bank accounts. The mere fact that Canada can tax these transactions is self-evident 3) The fact that US firms currently make up the majority of this second is irrelevant, they are competing o tue same terms as Canadian businesses in this space 4) Canada doesn’t have to eat the cost of this tax which they clearly communicated years in advance, nor should it. The government of Canada makes Canadian laws, the government is sovereign and these companies are not equals with whom it has to compromise or offer concessions or obtain their consent. The laws are fair and they received ample notice and accommodations. We have a court system they can avail themselves of if they feel otherwise and unlike the US we truly have a fair and impartial judiciary. Why would Canada absorb costs that this industry could easily afford and were provided significant advance notice of? At tax time do you demand the IRS eat the cost of your taxes simply because you don’t feel like paying although you could easily? Do you do that with any of your other bills? 5) what you don’t understand is that taxes are paid from gross revenue not net profits, meaning they can be offset with tax deductions, credits, write-offs, etc. It is not dishonest to discuss companies by gross earnings in fact EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) is one of the most common ways to value a company. 6) Yes any country can object to some domestic policy of another country and take some action in response. Canada could object to the way USA treats some endangered species on the Gulf of Mexico or the way we think USA treats gay or black people or whatever. And we could announce some punitive action as a result. That doesn’t mean it’s legitimate or appropriate for is to do so.

Thing is, MAGA is CULT to a T(rump). But since MAGA doesn't know the characteristics of CULTS, they believe they can just slap the name on ANYTHING, and completely miss how that makes them LOOK THE FOOL. Which is one of the characteristics of CULT members. IF Democrats were in a cult, they never would have abandoned their leader for his VP.

Did someone say that the western provinces should separate altogether from the eastern commies or Alberta should become the 51st state? Whichever one happens first, i am all in favor of it happening. Good riddance to a bad Canadian eastern globalist fascist garbage. Let the east keep all of their woke and communist bullshit for themselves. 👎

Play show and tell all day long if you'd like. I told you the extent of my knowledge of guns, which is probably average but probably more than most given most people don't own a gun or have shot one for that matter. Wasn't aware you have to be a firearms expert to support gun laws... or is that just a "left" thing? If you're good with the commonplace mass killings in the US from assault weapons that's on you.

While GM has ambitious EV goals, some dealerships, particularly those selling Buick and Cadillac, have opted for buyouts rather than investing heavily in EV infrastructure and sales.

So...if they were denied asylum, they have to go. That happens to be the law.

The royal patronage is the equivalent of government subsidies today amd happens in every culture. The thing about supporting the arts is that government is not meant to pick and choose specific pieces or styles of art, they’re meant fund “the arts” broadly and generally with rhe goal of creating a vibrant arts scene, nothing more. Vibrant art scenes almost by definition are going to result in some controversial or unconventional art.

Well right now there are 8 countries already spending north of 3 % and only one country right now not spending 2 %...I think what NATO is doing is looking at the current state of NATO's armys and most of NATO has cashed in peace bonds pretty hard...take germany for example,used to have 2500 main battle tanks, not that long ago.... today has less than 296 and has plans to double that number...you can do that with every NATO member including the US... 5% is the number NATO figures to get NATO back in line . i highly doubt this is going to be the long term number...NATO intel has said Russia will have recouped it's numbers within 5 years, and is already boasting numbers along NATO border countries... I think we miss a huge point here...Europe is preparing for war right now...and are panic mode, low troop and equipment numbers, combined with the US threatening to not come to their aid, and withdrawals of US troop levels across europe has them second guess their abilities....not to mention US has dumped Ukraine support and europe has picked up that ball...A lot of european countries are talking about bring back mandatory serve to bring troops numbers back up..recalling those members that just retired....mean while here in Canada , We have signed onto a new Europe defence pact making more military taskings.......And our military strength is a joke right now...it will take decades to fix our military issues...even at 3.5 %, with creative accounting making up the other 1.5 %....

That's the whole point. Also depends on the caliber of the chair, I have one with high velocity wheels and a shoulder thing that goes up.

I don't agree. The whole way of operating under Trump has proven a steady violation of Constitutional rights.

Your own article disproves you. That's not a gatomontes thing. That's a blackbird thing.

No, they were admitted legally under a program Biden had in place. That means they were and are in the country legally. Just because ICE unlawfully arrested them doesn't mean they are all of a sudden inllegally in the country. They were arrested contrary to the Constitution and their rights were violated. Pretty simple to understand.

I explained to you what happened, and you could easily go on wiki and verify it for yourself in one minute if you wanted to, but the meme is so shiny, and it came from your handlers, so nothing can convince you of its actual worth.

I would posit that it would be increasingly difficult to counter fantasy laden drivel with factual reports. TDS is a mental disorder that starts with intense hatred. The hatred clouds judgement. People don't like to be bigotted without reason, so they look for faults they can cling to to justify their hatred. The loss of judgement combined with hatred and the need to find faults forces those that are infected to believe demonstrably disproven claims, without fail, and repeat such claims like a homeless guy arguing with a light pole. Yes, it is time consuming and monotonous to repeatedly remind those with TDS why they are hate-filled, biggot a-holes. So we just say TDS and move on. There is no point in discussing the TDS because they are delusional.

All American politicians played the same game - on both sides of the aisle.

I have a shotgun that holds 12-15+1 in the barrel

We can't count the $$ in Canada because everything the federal government does is top secret. We aren't allowed to know what things cost or the reasons why budgets keep going up and timelines keep going back. Why did that stupid pipeline cost so much? TOP SECRET! Why are we paying such enormous prices for unarmed support ships? TOP SECRET! Why are we spending so much on those Irving ships when the British are building them for a fraction of the price we're paying? TOP SECRET! The only certainty we have is that whatever they do will cost a lot more than they say it will and take a lot longer than they say it will. I'd love to do a deep, forensic accounting dive at Iriving industries to find out where all the money is going. I have a feeling the Irvings have a money bin hidden somewhere in Nova Scotia that they like to party in and do their own deep dives into piles of taxpayer cash.

lol.... just another day at the playground for the Trump admin. Hey, did you know about this DST tax....no, don't remember it Hey, did you know about this tax.....yeah, but didn't think they'd really do it This is unfair! We've been blindsided!! Children are easier to deal with....

I am saying the statistics are very clear. I'm Scottish, dipshit. And most Jews are also white. The rest of your Nazi screed was just the blubbering whine of one of life's failures.

Ahhh we can always count on you to be racist

F*ck Trump. Slap a tariff on his d*ck and tell him to suck it.

Meanwhile Carney passes law giving birthright citizenship to kids born outside Canada. Unbelievable.

Walmart would pay the same tax as any business within Canada pays. Businesses pay taxes based on their profits. That is totally different that a DST tax on a foreign company operating on the internet. A digital service tax on Amazon will be passed on to customers. It is another excuse for the Liberal government to collect more taxes. People that purchase something on Amazon already pay GST and will now have another price increase to pay for the DST.

I went thru half of the video, and i had to leave. What a bunch of sick and insane leftist leaning lieberal nut cases. A mental institution is where they should be yelling and crying instead because that is where they belong. How can anyone think that by talking to a tree is going to do anything to help any trees? This is what lieberalism has done to many dumb downed imbeciles in our society. Lieberalism has driven them into absolute insanity. The USA cannot help to save the world. It is the leaders of those 3rd world countries that are at fault here, and not Americas fault. North America is starting to look and become another 3rd world country right now. If we do not stop the flow of the millions of illegal 3rd world immigrants and refugees from coming to North America, then we will have signed our own white death warrant and we are continuing to commit racial white suicide and genocide. This is a fact of life and is no joke. To be bringing in dozens of different cultures, languages, religions and traditions by the millions every year, whom are not compatible to our western way of life and culture, is committing racial suicide. If one wants to ignore the facts and reality, then it is their children and grandchildren that will pay the price for their ignorance and who gives a crap attitude. This has nothing to do with racism, but the instinct for our white survival. Just my personal opinion. 😇

And then you said all semi-automatics. Like I said, in the span of an hour you are already moving your call to action to ban the vast majority of all owned firearms in the country, the most commonly owned firearms. See, this is where folks like you who claim to be gun owners, start to show how little you know about actually using guns. You can very easily continue to load a shotgun, while it is still in use. Santa Fe Texas, 2018, mass shooter used a shotgun and revolver to kill 10 and wound 13. Top 10 deadliest mass shootings in a school. Thats what happens with a shotgun and revolver. He was stopped because Law Enforcement showed up to stop him. That is how most mass shootings stop, when someone armed is there to stop them, regardless of weapon types. Yes, you are dishonest. You lied repeatedly here about what Biden has said, then you pushed wanting to ban assault style weapons, then you added on all semi-automatics, and what... you think your anti-gun gun control arguments stop when a kid shows up with a shotgun and a revolver and still kills a bunch of kids? Now all of a sudden you don't support gun-control? Yeah right.

who did you think will pay the tax, Martians? What a stupid post headline!

lol... This coming from the Supreme Idi0t of idiocy.

😂😂.... figured as much! A red hat wannabe in Canada.... assuming he/she just wears the funny looking lid indoors now.

'The Don' is coming for you little man . . . you've been marked.

Beyond shrewd.... She might be the She-Wolf of Wall Street. Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-California) raked in between $7.8 and $42.5 million in 2024 — meaning her estimated net worth with venture capitalist hubby Paul Pelosi could now top out at $413 million, new financial disclosures showed. The staggering sum is an eye-popping jump from 2023, when financial disclosures showed the couple’s net worth topping out at a possible $370 million.

Tnat is an absolute lie. His first budget was delivered on time about 3 months after he was elected. "Stephen Harper was sworn in as Canada's 22nd Prime Minister on February 6, 2006," "The Canadian federal budget for 2006, presented by Finance Minister Jim Flaherty on May 2, 2006, focused on tax reductions, spending in core federal areas, and debt paydown. Key highlights included a one-percentage-point reduction in the Goods and Services Tax (GST), income tax cuts, and a $1,200 per-child childcare payment (Universal Child Care Benefit). The budget also addressed immigration, affordable housing, and Aboriginal communities. " Once again you have to lie in order to try and make a point. I mean this information is easily looked up, you had to know that what you were saying was false. And yet you're going to sit around and whine when everybody calls you a liar and pretend like you don't know why. Here you go folks, another example of the "ever honest" Ex-flyer

I just don't care about it. I haven't even bothered to read about it. It's possible that he remembered incorrectly, or got the name of a different AC/DC song wrong, or maybe it's just a song that they played in the lockerroom with a different hockey team that had some of his old teammates on it. I don't really know what it's about and I don't care about what he remembers about music from 40 years ago. I do care that Carney knowingly lies directly to all Canadians about consequential things that he did in Dec 2024. I can't say whether or not you are an actual member of the LPOC party, and you'd never be honest about it if you were, so it's a moot point. I just said that you're a cultist, which you plainly are. The way that you shout down the truth and pretend that it doesn't matter isn't a sign of a healthy, functioning mind. You're clearly not a rational, capable adult whose main goal here is seeing Canada elect the best leader possible. It's possible that, like robo, your master is the ayatollah or some other foreign adversary, and you're just here to advocate for whatever's worst for Canada. It's quite a common thing nowadays. I can't say for sure what enemy of Canada you serve, but you serve them blindly. As is Trump.

lol.... There's no lies coming from him that are of any consequence one way or another, except to those who wanted PP. Budget will come when he knows what the landscape is after getting the tariff agreement is done. Hard to give fiscal guidance when you don't know the immediate future. A large number of companies in Corporate America have done the same thing and pulled their earning guidance because they don't know what's going on with the sh*t show known as Trump. No big deal. Until then it doesn't affect our credit rating or affect the credibility of why Carney got elected. Gives the opposition something to chirp is about it....

He screamed into the void... They can take charge of their own destiny and self-deport now!

There is a lot Carney can do to spend money here in Canada, if he does it wisely, we could order new LAV 6 mk2 built in ontario with a whole slew of add ons and capabilities....it's a win win....once into the european markets, we could purchase systems and have them built here in Canada...just European orders for arms have locked up most manufactures up for at least 5 years, with long delivery times....and this is only going to get worse as more orders come in...take the Leopard II there are only 2 places that produce new hulls, for thousands of already built tanks and for all the new orders...it would be a win win for Canada replacing some of our lost auto sector jobs... We should also be looking cutting back on our new Irving frigates, and looking at say south Korea, of Japan, to build destroyers or cruisers for half the price and 10 times the capability....Same as subs...Use Canadian ship building to build more naval support ships, that we don't have right now, like under sea infrastructure protection or repair ships, deep diving / research ships, or sub rescue ships...or more armed icebreakers. or armed coast guard cutters...

Is there supposed to be some kind of direct relationship between what Carney says and what he does now? Didn't think so.

That's neither here nor there. You said that you would apologize if you were wrong. I said [paraphrasing] "Why bother apologizing if you're wrong? Left4rds lie and slander all the time and they never apologize. Why should you be the first left4rd to apologize here? Especially when you didn't even lie or slander, you were just wrong about something. Being wrong from time to time isn't a crime. I'm being accurate and concise: writing those 8 letters anywhere instantly puts the reader perfectly on target. I could say "hyper-biased political pawn with borderline cultist behaviour who's blissfully ignorant of the fact that he's cheering on our nation's steady descent to 1-party rule" but it's verbose and the tik-tok generation will neither appreciate all that precision nor stay on task long enough to read it all, plus I'm a hunt-and-peck typist TBH, and I don't have all day here. Nope. I'm not the guy who just leaves the house to my wife in a divorce. People from this region deserve fair treatment, not 1-party rule and fascism. The PM with the drama teacher degree totally controlled the judicial system, you don't think that between the PM and finance monster they set the interest rates? Please, Barqy. I don't think there are any 3-yr-olds here.

This is a major scandal. The Housing Minister will be next to useless to the millions of people hoping to afford to buy a home.

People in northern/Interior BC vote differently from Vancouver - the city. On this forum, a poster once explained to me why Vancouver Island had a Green MP and a Conservative MP. He said, "There are tree-huggers and tree-cutters." ===== Alberta needs an outlet to the sea.
