Donald's threats have only made Canada stronger and more resolved. Maybe next time a POTUS visits Parliament our politicians will do less fawning and instead will hold our heads high without any regard for what any American leader thinks of us. And maybe the wives of our leaders will choose to stay home because they just DGAF. I assume we'll see you on the front lines and not hiding behind a keyboard?

In addition to knowing we once built the 4th largest army on the planet you also need to realize we also did so in short order. By the same token the vast majority of Canadians will automatically know it's time to shift into battle mode again and you will be faced with the most motivated insurgency you've ever faced. The threat to your sovereignty is in your hands and in the decisions and choices you make. Choose wisely, in any case once the dust settles and you're brought to your senses again we'll revert to form just as quickly and probably invite you over for a beer.

No plagiarism.

That's open to debate.

https://www.forbes.com Oct 16, 2024 In today's economic climate, the financial requirements for achieving the American Dream are out of reach for most individuals, as it costs over $1 million more than most Americans earn in a lifetime—not even factoring in essential costs such as food, healthcare, auto insurance and other basic necessities—the report stated. You need to fix your country before it's too late!

Feel free to get mad. It's my civic duty to encourage your austism and TDS.

More and more people might face a tough time in retirement. Low-paying jobs, inflation, and high rents make it hard to save. Now, middle-class Canadians find it tough to own a home too, leaving them without a place to retire. The young generation of Canadians that are about to start their life has found that they must pick between food or paying rent. Food bank usage are skyrocketing. The easiest solution is of course the one thing you don't want, 51st. You old farts can afford to say no to orange man because you bought your house 35 years ago and don't care. There is no reason a country with almost the same land mass as America can't house a few million new comers.

Except… you didn’t do either.

You don’t know wtf you’re talking about you kook.

Oh well, one day they'll come to their senses. Meanwhile our trees will only get more valuable as they age.

Yes we are. Untangling does not mean we're going to stop, reduce or ban trade with the USA. It simply means reducing the amount of dependence on it, now that they've proven how untrustworthy their country has become.

LOL...You are such a LOSER but hey, kudos for the effort LOL

I have a theory: A Flyer who once had a brain; Turned into a internet pain; A downvote a day made his life seem OK; Till his mom took the keyboard away. OK, I'm done now... he's all yours. Try to be gentle though, we're judged by how we treat people with mental illness.

F you.

It's just hilarious that a week ago Carney was recognizing a state that would throw Mr. Bare Bum gay guy he is hugging off a building. Make it make sense. This is not a serious country.

Well, if you can't even be honest enough about knowing what you said, no point in continuing.

Is it good for the average American to pay more for something made in the USA for a very limited increase in manufacturing sector employment? I don’t think the answer is as black and white as you think it is.

This. Of course, it will be ignored due to the inconvenience to some people’s preferred narrative. USA manufacturing output is at an all-time high, as a proportion of USA’s GDP. And obviously was under Biden too. But the sector doesn’t employ very many people compared to the past. Laverne and Shirley are not standing on an assembly line any longer. They’ve been fired and one person with an education can look after the assembly line via a computer where it used to be 50 people on the line doing stuff.

A trade deal with the USA is no longer Canada's top priority. Untangling the economy from US trade is.

Again, are you unaware of what you said?

Then why are you asking me what the lie was?

Our American cousins secretly love and buy a few Canadian products. They laugh and make jokes about our Canadian bacon. And, being Canadians, we gladly sell these products to our cousins across the line. Maple syrup & Canadian bacon . . . Yummmm! But, as you know, there are by~products to any food operation. We Canadians love our syrup and bacon and consume a lot of it. The 'real' Canadian bacon cut from the porkers loins is the product that stays here in Canada for domestic consumption, and another product labelled as Canadian bacon is shipped stateside. These are the hog sphincters . . . packaged up nicely and sold for big dollars. We could put a 200% tariff on these, and our American cousins still couldn't get enough. Eat up!

So those without one seem to like to tell us. Those that judge worth in financial terms the loudest.

You fight in comic books. At least that's what you tell your therapist. How are those sessions going?

He's the only man i've ever met who truly gets the maximum value he paid for out of his capslock key

Loving my new avatar...cracks me up...we are not a serious country right now. Imagine any other world leader being photographed hugging a guy in a g-string. It just gets worse and worse in Canada.

Its not my fault it makes no sense to you. You're forever blaming everyone else for your deficiencies. You don't think everyone else can see that as well?

This logic operates on the assumption that all of the various global organizations, non-government or otherwise, are compromised and biased against Israel for "reasons", but that these "ngo-monitor" links you're tossing around here are fair and neutral, despite being funded directly by Israel. Awkward.

Ah yes... this is where you play some dishonest game that it is OK for you to support terrorism today because you lie about how Israel was formed.

I have never actually "lauded' the creation of Israel than the slightest. I've never actually commented on it one way or another. The closest I've ever come is to say that for better or worse it happened and now we have to deal with the situation that we find ourselves in today and not worry about a situation that happened 100 years ago that we can't change You're the one who literally said that Hamas had a human right to attack and Slaughter the Israeli civilians. And when I call you on that kind of thing and say you're supporting terrorism you insist that just because you support the terrorist attack on Israel doesn't mean you support terrorist attacks. But it's literally the definition One example of many. You always say something and then when someone points out how terrible or stupid it is you turn around and pretend that you never said the thing that you very clearly said

But what you're actually saying doesn't square with what you're actually saying. You say you support rule of law, but yet you fight for illegal aliens. Nothing you ldiots say is what you actually want. And if it is, it's not the truth.

His allegiances lie with Soros and the rest of the globalist overlords. I think I can speak for robomarx in saying that he is extremely excited about his upcoming gender reassignment surgery. It's what Karl would've wanted.

Anything's possible but you have to remember that not everybody hears the voices talking out of things around them the way you do And I'm here to tell you that microwave is not your friend

Trump is a moderate, if it was up to me, I would actually raise the Tariff to 145% in Canada, force an economic winter. Turn Canada into a failed state. All without firing a shot. But ofcourse out of the Kindness of our Big American hearts unlike the ungrateful Canadians, we'll let in the Canadian refugee and allow them to apply for assylum status. The prideful Canucks can wait in the breadline.

I said man, not liberal.

I can't believe you drank Trump's Koolaid. Rots your teeth and your brain!

I suppose so. A degree doesn't guarantee anything, but that person should have been able to leverage that into some kind of career. All things told. I'm thinking of two of the sharpest program directors I knew in IT, one with a degree in French, the other a BFA in photography. They were excellent. The converse of that is, you probably don't even need a degree to be good at things. Degrees are good for learning a lot of things and challenging yourself. Wisdom is another thing. I'll never forget the guy I knew in third year, as statistics Wiz, who tracked what lottery tickets had been pulled in the past. They teach the memory list principal in the first week of school, meaning that his obsessive archiving was useless. I don't think he ever won.

Sigh. We've talked about not posting while you're drunk LOLOL

The answer is for people facing the challenges you describe is the join the Canadian forces and push the government to follow through with rebuilding the CAF. A larger military will deter the Americans. The US doesn't want our steel, aluminum and copper etc., we use it to build munitions and weapons for the CAF and Ukraine. The tariffs put people out of work... the CAF needs recruits. Establisn a Foreign Legion for immigrants looking for Canadian citizenship. In 1939, we went from the depression to having wone of the largest militaries in the world. Less than 5000 people in the CAF in 1939 to over one million in just 6 years. Am in a country of 12 million people. And,to be clear, Canada has a larger land mass than the US.

Yet another thread hijacked by Covid1ots who think that because they survived it wasn't a serious threat. Shuddup already the people that died are dead and they pretty much can fix it you if you get it. Move on already. This one about the butthurt who weren't going to see some stupid singer whining that someone else couldn't either.

Hilarious how your posted "evidence" has a question mark, and YOUR TITLE has TWO exclamation points. IOW, YOU'RE LYING.

They were probably just talking about you

Well, this is certainly a nice summary of your own dishonest stupidity...

Wonder which FOX news personality will get this job.

It's not like it's hard to move to America now. Canadians have a pretty easy time of doing that, and yet strangely we continue to exist In fact according to Google AI, In recent years, there's been a notable decline in Canadians permanently immigrating to the U.S. So there you go. The thing about that is a lot of people coming to Canada from other places do so specifically because that makes it easier to get into the US, so you would always expect the Canadian moving to the US numbers would always be much larger. But they're not anymore. Sorry to burst your bubble

I really think going there for an extended period of time is the only thing that provides the level of "understanding" which allows rational discussion. Nothing is simple there and the absence of a time machine renders historical perspectives moot. Cool.... let's turn that around because I'm interested in your solution. My first tour there was in 1977 with UNEF, I've been back multiple times (including the MFO follow on mission to UNEF) and I've thought about the "what to do" aspect of all this at some length. Trouble is, a generation of young people have grown up under Hamas and that's hugely problematic, nothing short of the destruction of Israel is acceptable to many of them now and that wasn't the case in 77. Back then I thought it was fixable, not so sure anymore. Music to my desert rat ears Herb, sounds like you have a solution that doesn't require a time machine... I'd love to hear it.

See, the takeaway here is that you don't cross our borders illegally in the first place.

Forget about whether you agree with the platforms. Here is the difference. Poilievre was the frontrunner, ahead on everything including money and he managed to lose. Mamdani was nowhere when he started and was subjected to a massive multimillion dollar hate campaign by Cuomo’s backers. And he won. It wasn’t close. If you know Mira Nair’s work you won’t be surprised by that. Political comparisons of this sort are never fully fair but the contrast in outcomes is stark.
