Canada is a shadow of its 2014 self. All that we have done since that point is go downhill in every way imaginable.

52/59 by my rough count, regarding Canada, but to be fair, my answers were binary in nature, and some of these answers are 1/1 as "yeses", but not necessarily a 1/1, as in "to the highest extents possible". I also used covid lockdown standards as the basis for answering some of these questions. Eg, I said that our gov't used excessive force to quell dissent, because they did, but they didn't do it on a "4 dead in Ohio" level, and only during covid.

Why? Just so that Trump can call the carney to the WH, make him stand in the corner for a while, and then cancel it?

The theory is that once the money starts rolling in from the tariffs, income taxes can go down. And TBH, if tariffs do amount to a form of taxation, along with sales tax, it's a pretty fair form of tax... A drug dealer, prostitute, or anyone else with untaxed income pays just as much money for things as any taxpayer does, so instead of people paying income tax being on the hook for all the gov't's income, the bill is spread out according to who bought the most stuff.

So he correctly quotes the expression clause, and then.... 😂 Are you his wife? Just admit that we do have freedom of speech in Canada, and that, just like in America, there are limits to how far you can take that. Even in America, you'll quickly end up in cuffs if you say "bomb" at the airport, you can be sued for defamation, and one of the most serious crimes you can commit is sedition, which can be nothing more than just saying words (and contrary to what you've been led to believe by left4rd MSM cult-handlers, breaking windows at the capitol is not a seditious activity). It's true that at this point in time our government is doing everything that they can to control the narrative of every topic that can be politicized, and censoring the truth to promote their own disinformation, but that doesn't mean that the we don't theoretically have freedom of speech in Canada, just like they do in Russia.

Lol, you're still just making baseless insults because your brief foray into the world of facts and supporting evidence went so horribly wrong. I'll just keep throwing down facts that you don't dare try to refute while you just keep your potty mouth rolling, Link. It's easy to spot who the adult in this conversation is 😘

Our political parties don't raise money that fast, even with all of the grift-loot that's at stake for their cronies.

This reminds me of when Trudeau pontificated to the Chinese gov't: "In Canada, the government does not interfere in the judicial process", to which their newspaper, Xinhua, replied "SNC" 😂. Lich is as much of a political prisoner as any uppity b1tch in Iran that dared to take off her hijab. Watching Canada's steady descent into sh1thole-country status is just as infuriating as talking to the left4rds here.

OMG, are you telling us that the CBC lied for 96,312th time? I honestly thought that they were gonna stop at 96,311.

Why? What does Trump stand to gain from giving 40M left-wing-voters a say in US elections when he already pulls the strings here, and he doesn't have to put up with Quebec's endless stream of BS? If Canada does join the US, invest in Tylenol and Advil buddy, because Trump will have to let all the drug mules out of prison just to keep the WH supplied.

I'm saying 4 things that are true, and you're getting back into baseless insult mode now, which is all that you're good at. Link: the fact that Trump even thinks that he can get away with telling Canadians "what pipelines we need to approve" tells you everything that you need to know about how much Carney's leadership is respected. Like I said right from the beginning: Trump didn't tell Canadians to vote for the carney because he thought that the carney was a strong, capable leader: he was appointing him as Governor of Canada. The Japanese would never try that shit on S Korea. France and England would never talk to each other like that. But Trump is apparently; our daddy.

What ever gave you the impression that leftists are against authoritarian control? You must be reaching decades back into your memory banks.

Libbies are unlucky when it comes to thinking.

That wasn't my only example, stupid. There was also the carney's attempt at establishing a DST, the threat of punitive reciprocal tariffs from Canada, and now Trump has told our gov't what pipelines they need to build and how our approval process is going to work. Now, by your own admission, Trump's control of our government has spanned two LPOC governments. And why wouldn't it? The LPOC Politburo is still in place. The worthless loser leading them is the only person that really changed.

What's happening down in the States is that the price of CANADIAN goods is going up, while the price of US goods is unaffected. It means that US producers can now create their own products and charge more money for them, in this case 20.56% more, and they will still be competitive with Canadian products. That means that companies that were employing Canadians who shipped products down south might go out of business, and companies might open up down south. It could even open up jobs for skilled Canadians down south, who accept those opportunities, leaving a skill gap here, and hampering our own economy. Furthermore, in a lot of cases a single factory, mill or mine can be the cornerstone of the economy for a town or small city. The people who work there make enough money to support an entire family, and they use that money to buy a home, cars, groceries, get their hair cut, etc. The closure of that facility can destroy a local economy. We're not just losing 1 way in this trade war. We are getting hammered 6 ways from Sunday.

You probably want to get your head out of your ass: https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/ambassador-us-canada-tariff-border-progress-1.7463449 Canada's ambassador to the United States hinted the country might avoid U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs by continuing to tackle illegal migration and fentanyl trafficking. In an interview on Wednesday with CBC's Power & Politics guest host J.P. Tasker, Ambassador Kirsten Hillman said advisers to the president are "pleased" with Canada's progress. She added that "everybody that we're talking to" in Washington suggests Trump's March 4 deadline to impose 25 per cent tariffs on almost all imports from Canada is tied to the country's efforts to fight the scourge of fentanyl and protect the border. Canada has taken a series of measures in response to the president's concerns, including forging ahead with a $1.3-billion plan to secure the Canada-U.S. border and appointing former senior Mountie Kevin Brosseau as fentanyl czar. Trump said "Jump!", our gov't said "How high?", according to the CBC. Regardless of what Trudeau and Biden may have talked about, Trump gave an order which our gov't obeyed. See how that works, Link? I told you that I would get you the proof from your own left4rd sources and there it is, with no room for misinterpretation. I make informative, dialogue-inducing posts with actual facts to invite discussion, and then you post snotty insults because you know that if you try to post BS rebuttals you'll get shot down in flames. Is there anything else that I said that you'd like to try to refute, Link? I advise against it, but whatever.

I was gonna ask you why you put a random apostrophe in "gonna", and if you didn't notice that the OP and my subsequent posts were most discussions based around pertinent facts, not just a bunch of snotty insults. Fact: taking over Canada probably isn't a good idea for the GOP, because of our tendency to vote left and how many EC votes we would have. Fact: Trump already had Carney doing his bidding, correct? The CBC and CTV even bragged that he did: they all said "Trump told the PM to spend more money patrolling the border and he did, and look at all the new fentanyl busts!" Sorry, Barq, that's an example of "Trump telling Carney what to do. He also told Carney to remove his punitive tariffs and guess what Carney did? Care to guess what Carney did when Trump responded with an angry tweet to Carney's triumphant proclamation of the new DST...? Carney is doing Trump's bidding. Period. There is no denying that. Now Trump is telling him what pipelines to build, etc. FYI that makes Trump our de facto leader. Trump is calling the shots, Carney is his lapdog. De facto | Meaning, De Jure, & Facts | Britannica De facto, a legal concept used to refer to what happens in reality or in practice, as opposed to de jure ("from the law"), which refers to what is actually notated in legal code. For example, a de facto leader is someone who exerts authority over a country but whose legitimacy is broadly rejected, Trump is not our elected leader, and we'd all agree that you would reject him as being our legitimate sovereign, but it is a simple fact that when he tells Carney what to do, Carney does it. Trump is Carney's boss, period. You can throw down some snotty insults now if you want, but I can guarantee that you will not try to make any counter-points to anything that I said here, because I can eviscerate any attempt that you make at an adult-level argument with a plethora of facts and the requisite incontrovertible evidence right from your own trusted sources 😘

Leftists don't understand how much Pelosi and her fat-cat friends benefit from having millions of illegals pour across the border to work for cheap in slaughterhouses, etc, and how much they drive up the cost of those guys' low-rent housing units. "Ohhh, Nancy is such a champion of the poor people in America!" they say, as Nancy is busy screwing over all of the poor people in America.

"STFU, Pax. That's exactly what we want." - AOC, Schumer, Pelosi, Harris, Obama, Omar, Pressley, Tlaib, and 150M cultists.

Exactly. It's part of his "shoot for the stars, hit the moon" bargaining strategy: "Give us everything that we want and then when you go home empty handed, you can crow about 'winning' because your roof and your dog are still there." Can you imagine actually wanting Quebec to be a part of your country? 😂 "Hey Doc, can you give me something to make my headaches more severe? I just wanna know what it feels like to be a leftist that's trying to use a 7-letter word."

"A little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing." It's clear from you wrote there that everything that you know about Israel would fit in a nutshell and rattle. I'll be honest: the existence of ancient Israel isn't of much significance, as far as I'm concerned. Sure, truthfully it was preposterous that the whole region was named Palestine by the Romans, because that region was as "Palestinian" at that time as BC is part of PEI. I know that you don't have a clue what I mean by that, and it's not worth explaining to you. The fact is that over the centuries, between the time when Israel and Judea and Philistia were separate countries and 1948, muslims overran the ME and either slaughtered or force-converted almost everyone to islam. Everyone that lived in the ME for the last 1,000 years before the British knocked off the Ottomans did so knowing that they were 2nd, 3rd or 4th-class citizens, and muslims were the boss of everyone there. FYI the creation of Israel, via British mandate, was no more or less legitimate than the creation of Pakistan. The only difference is that one of those newly partitioned countries engaged in a slaughter of biblical proportions and then drove out several million people, and the other one was attacked by 7 nations on the first day of their existence. Does that massive slaughter still bother you, ex-flyer? Do you feel sorry for the other country... the one that was attacked by 7 nations on the first day? Jesus H Flying Christ, I feel myself getting dumber as your words hit my eyes. Then you don't know shit about Iran. FYI Iran feels the same way about Israelis as you do about intelligent conversation - they want nothing less than eradication. Grok: Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has repeatedly expressed hostility toward the state of Israel, advocating for its destruction and describing it as a "cancerous tumor" that must be eliminated. For example, in 2014, he posted a plan titled "9 key questions about the elimination of Israel" on his Twitter account, stating that the "barbaric" Jewish state "has no cure but to be annihilated." He has also supported Palestinian resistance and armed groups like Hamas and Hezbollah, emphasizing that Iran's position is to support any group fighting against Israel. Here's what your friends in Hamas think, from Chat GPT: That's not my opinion. That's what ChatGPT has to say about the stated goals of Hamas. The reason Iran gives money to Hamas is because Hamas talks that way about Israel, and Jews. Not just "talks that way" mind you, but because they've shown nothing but a willingness to kill as many Jews as they can, every chance they get. The reason why Israel is so intent on getting rid of the tunnels is they can't afford to have Hamas get hold of the components for a nuke and assemble it under Israel. If Israel cedes that underground space to Hamas they will be incinerated, 100%. Israel itself is so small that just a couple nukes can wipe out all of their industry and the vast majority of their population.

Without even clicking the "Show the troll's childish post" button on ^^that^^, I can ay with absolute certainty that it wasn't worth reading. Was I wrong? Of course not 😘

"Their" lol. Illiterate trash. FYI I didn't say that I watch Rebel all the time, but unlike you, I have the ability to consider sources for what they worth. Just remember that you're the gullible f-tard who followed Fauci's words like gospel truth for 2 full years. All the things that you now have no choice but accept are the things that I was saying 4 years ago. So tell me why you can't acknowledge that they're the ones who said that Carney's summit was a failure? Why do you pretend that Cdn and I made it up, and then just hurl insults at us like a spoiled child? It's not always a "conspiracy". Sometimes alleged "news" outlets just lie because of their feverish biases. You've seen plenty of examples of that lying from CBC and CTV, it's a cornerstone of Canadians journalistic non-integrity. Lol. That's one of the dumbest things that you've ever said, and that's no mean feat.
