  1. Then why did he say he would retaliate with dollar for dollar tariffs during the election campaign? Did he just figure out that Canadians would be paying those tariffs? Elbows up! LOL
  2. They’re just randos with no significance at all, and regardless, you don’t need permission to leave Russia. Defecting isn’t necessary. They could have applied for citizenship anywhere the proper way and Putin wouldn’t have given a crap because he has no idea who they are.
  3. How are they his political enemies? They’re nobody’s. Bingo.
  4. The Texas redistricting is far less partisan than states like Illinois. You never hear that in the mainstream media though.
  5. Why would they be tortured? Anyone can leave Russia if they want to. There’s no need for defecting anymore. This story doesn’t make any sense. Regardless, I though Trump was only targeting brown people?
  6. The good news is that boomers are dying off every day. So the one age demographic that voted Liberal in the last election will have less of an impact in the next one. That being said, I wouldn’t be against a new variant speeding things up a little.
  7. Yep, not enough died off unfortunately.
  8. We need boomers to die off faster, so the Liberals stop winning elections. The last 10 years has been brutal for Canada.
  9. How do you know that a short term deal with lower tariffs isn't possible? Other countries have been successful? Regardless, there's no such thing as a long term deal, especially once Trump is out of office. It's likely the next president would rip it up anyways.
  10. You're not going to untangle the Canadian economy from the largest economy in the world, that's closest in proximity. We can increase our trade on the margins with other countries, but nothing will offset the trade we do with America. Anyone that thinks we can just trade more with other countries doesn't understand that we already trade with other countries.
  11. California, New York and Illinois are set to lose seats in the house of representatives. Florida, Texas and Utah are set to gain seats. Terrible blue state policies are now having electoral ramifications for Democrats. I think that's why blue states are in favor of illegal immigration. It helps keep their population levels growing even though they're experiencing a net decline due to migration out of their states.
  12. Fake news. Also conveniently leaves out 2nd quarter.
  13. There’s more nuance to this. This particular person inflated jobs numbers for many months during the Biden administration, some say in an effort to help them with re-election. This particular person ended up having to revise down almost a million jobs that had had supposedly been created during the Biden/Harris term. This person now apparently overestimated job numbers at a time when many were hiking that the federal reserve would cut interest rates. They ended up not cutting rates based on these job numbers. If this particular persons numbers were accurate over the last few months, the federal reserve most likely would have cut interest rates, significantly helping the economy, as rates are still high.
  14. Trump wasn’t in office in September of 2024 when the second largest job revision in American history took place. Largest revision ever other than in 1968. She pumped up job numbers for several months to help Biden/Harris, and then had to revise almost a million jobs out of existence. The worst part of th recent revisions is that if these lower numbers over the last few months are accurate, the federal reserve most likely would have cut interest rates which have remained unusually high. She literally postponed interest rate cuts because of her inaccurate assessments.
  15. America doesn’t need labour. Regardless that’s not what asylum is for. And they can have their applications heard remotely for consideration, as 90% of asylum applicants are found not to be eligible. The United Nations has no justification over immigration of other countries. They can do f**k themselves if they think they can for countries to accept unlimited illegal immigration.
  16. You don’t see to be criticizing the government much for such aggressive censorship. Do you generally think that churches need to get permission from the government as to whom they have preform in their establishments?
  17. I don’t know what do whatever you want to turn means. Regardless, if somebody is in your country illegally, you have every right to remove them if they will not leave on their own.
  18. Yes, even the United States. It’s funny that you recognize other countries sovereignty but not America’s.
  19. I love that you’re making excuses for government not permitting a singer based on political reasons. When did you become a fascist?
  20. Carny sends parliament away for the summer.  No nation building projects approved, no trade deal, and no budget.

    1. Aristides

      Aristides

      Provincial legislatures also closed for the summer. Who is he going to deal with? Why the rush for a trade deal? 

    2. Shady

      He’s going to deal with the United States.  The same way the UK, EU, Japan, etc have.  Rush?  He’s gone past his own deadlines twice now.  The longer it takes, the longer Canadian businesses are subjected to higher tariffs than countries we’re competing with.  Didn’t he say this was an existential threat?  Or was that just more talk to get elected?

    3. Aristides

      So what? No deal is better than a bad deal Canadian businesses would be saddled with for years. 

  21. If you’re in the United States illegally, you have the freedom to leave on your own accord, and go to wherever country you please, including your country of origin. I would recommend that if you’re worried about being deported to some place you’d rather not go.
  22. She pumped up job numbers for the Biden administration, and then was forced to revise away 800,000 jobs last September. The second worst revision in American history.
