Yes. He agreed to the terms of the ceasefire. Shocking that he wouldn't completely cede all leverage to Russia at the behest of the US. AND!!!! allow the US to pillage the country's natural resources. Sounds like a great deal.
-
There's been a ceasefire proposal on the table for over a month. Yet Putin continues to attack. His proposals for "peace" simply make Ukraine easy pickings in another year or two. As to my point. Trump is just boldening Russia. They should back away. Let Europe take it from here. They're the ones with actual skin in the game.
-
He's said he wants all of Ukraine. He tried to cease the capital when this war started. He just attacked Kyiv last night. Any peace talks now are a temporary respite.
-
Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it. Putin has no interest in letting Ukraine just retain its current territory.

https://www.msn.com/en-ie/news/world/china-proposes-alliance-with-canada-to-counter-us-influence/ar-AA1Dw73n I'm sure this is just an attempt to influence the election Monday, but right now China is the more reliable trading partner. If you've ever checked, most of the stuff in Canadian Tire is Chinese. It's impossible to conceive a functioning Canada without trade with China.

Orange Oaf Just Can't Keep His Mouth Shut
Boges replied to herbie's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Claim that Carney, who's been in power maybe two months, is the "biggest" liar in Canadian history. -

Oh. Is that the talking point now? Gotcha. -
Maybe the US should sit this one out. They're making things worse. It's clear the compromised Trump will not make Putin compromise on anything. Any peace without security assurance isn't peace. It's just and example of the droll our phoney war, like after Hitler invaded Poland.

Awww Muffin. It must suck to support one of the biggest political collapses in Canadian history. -

If you can say anything about Trump, it's that he stays on message, even if that message is dumb and inaccurate. I think he sees Carney will win so he can continue to taunt us. His actions speak larger than the rhetoric. The tariffs are going to start causing real damage to the US economy and not just peoples stock portfolio. He was warned yesterday that using the Fed chair as a scapegoat will further undermine confidence in the US economy and this insane trade war with China could lead to empty shelves. He's looking for an offramp. But I kind of hope he doesn't. Crashing the US economy might finally rid us of this malignant political period in history. -

And several members of the CPC as it turns out. I guess it's bad business only to work with people that share your political ideology. -
Yes, but Harper did fairly well in Ontario. He also won two minorities before finally breaking through with a majority. DoFo has not been supportive of the PP campaign. A close race like you suggest, indicates a minority government. Which either means PP has to play nice to get anything done ORRR we're right in the same place we were before with a new Liberal leader. What's telling about how this race is shaping up is the cratering of the NDP. You'd have to think that support is going towards the Liberals.

Democrats Want Your Kids To Be Autistic
Boges replied to gatomontes99's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
What evidence is there that Autism is linked to environmental factors? The MMR vaccine is so common that a correlation link can be made to any childhood issues. -
This is what he did with Canada and Mexico on a larger scale. Threaten tariffs and within a day pause them. He can rinse and repeat this act over and over again. Hopefully the world realizes dealing with Trump is like dealing with a toddler trying to get candy and looks for alternatives to their market.

Rethink: What does Trump want?
Boges replied to August1991's topic in Canada / United States Relations
This is exactly what he did with Canada and Mexico. Threatens big tariffs says he won't back down. . . . then backs down. But only temporarily. So we'll be back at this again in a few months. It creates chaos and uncertainty. We can see that even though most Canadian exports are still tariff free, Canadians don't trust the US. The damage is done. This will repeat itself all over the world. Also the fight with China is rough. We often don't realize how much stuff we get from China. 100+% tariffs are going to sting. -

I'm starting to think it's solely to raise revenue. Shift the tax base away from income tax to tariffs. It's a regressive tax only poors have to pay anyway. Don't like it? buy USA!! Simple narrative. Fixing trade deficits can't be the ultimate goal. How do you fix a trade deficit with an third-world country that sells you clothing and electronics? The US only really has agriculture to offer. Agriculture built on potash imports from Canada BTW. That's probably why he's not pushing the Canada thing so much lately. -
Because the accusations may be false. You go to the US and they don't like your political speech and accuse you of a crime. Without due process you can't prove yourself innocent. This is one reason why I really don't want to visit the US as a tourist anymore. If they can't check my phone and send me to El Salvador without any due process? Thanks, but no thanks. You're no better than China.
-
Then you should have no problem with the Administration complying with a court order regarding releasing the names of those deported. And you should believe that all people deserve due process. Not just citizens. Because if you don't have due process, how can you prove you're a citizen when they come for you?
