don't get cute, this is war, keep it simple stupid, maximum harm to the enemy at no cost at all to you ; win win

made by which Canadian auto company ? since there is no such thing, don't get cute, this is war, keep it simple stupid ; let the Chinese do the harm for you

we worked with Stalin to beat Hitler, entirely consistent with the defence of the British Crown when necessary

Alberta needs to do it too, the question is, is Ontario prepared to shock the American Big Three on auto tariffs ? like if GM, Ford, & Stellantis start to comply with Trump, move their production to the USA, does Canada have the aggression to drop the tariffs on Chinese EV's ? because the Chinese EV's are stunningly great at a very low price, Chinese EV's will sell like hotcakes at $25K each, the Mexicans are crazy for Chinese EV's, that's the sort of thing which will scare the Americans, beat them over the head with China's better products

last time this happened was Hawley-Smoot, Canada took the bait and mirrored the American administration, big mistake, since the Great Depression was worse in Canada than it was in America, Canada should be dropping all trade barriers not raising them, to retaliate against the Americans ; you put an export duty on energy ; only America pays for that

well that is the benefit of Trump, his lunacy is forcing everybody else to get serious, hence why I wanted him to win, but you don't want to adopt his suicidal policies therein, yes, America needs to get humbled, it's a good thing, it is good for America to learn a harsh lesson but Canada is already pathetic, no need to humble Canada from the pathetic state it is in now whatever way Trump is going, Canada should be going in the exact opposite direction

yes he is, he's a complete lunatic, everything he is doing is going to explode in America's face like a bomb

that is Donald Trump's position with the American government you can't escape that Canada First is just another case of Canada having no ideas of its own, rather it is Canada just mimicking the Americans again, even to Canada's disadvantage therein, right there Polievre should be disqualified, because he's just grasping at straws, oh, Donald Trump said it, so I am going to say it too ? Yeah okay sure, good luck with that, Canada never mind how you are saying that Donald Trump is an id!ot and lunatic for saying it, get your f*cking story straight already, Canada

well again, Canada First is just copying Donald Trump, which means Canada would be endorsing Donald Trump's policy, both morally & economically, I don't think that works for Canada ; why would you want to follow Donald Trump down into the mire therein ?

unlike America, Canada is totally dependant upon international trade, Canada First, which is just copying Donald Trump, that doesn't work for Canada, it's never in Canada's interests to go it alone, that is not the Canadian way, American Exceptionalism is folly for America, America does not prosper by that doctrine, but for Canada to adopt that failing American doctrine is suicide,

well, Carney would be a fool to call an election right out of the gate. the constitution does not actually demand it, and SIngh is not actually going to bring the Liberals down now, so Carney has his window of opportunity ; just start doing the job till the end of the actual mandate in 2026 Canadians are on a war footing, ready to charge over the top when the whistle blows, never let a crisis go to waste,

I am not partisan, I simply follow whomever is doing the best job of defending the British Crown, Doug Ford is an Upper Canadian Loyalist, Doug Ford is a Monarchist, so we are natural allies, Pierre Poilievre ? I don't know, the Liberals actually seem more Monarchist than him, give me Stephen Harper back instead methinks Canada cannot adopt a Canada First position, that is economic suicide, Canada's only hope in the face of America First is to become more internationalist not less

why would he want to ? she's going pitbull against Donald Trump, ready to nuke the White House if she could, enraged Canadians are clambering for that, at least 80-20 for Canada First is just adopting Donald Trump's doctrine for Canada, bad idea, since Canada is actually dependant on liberalized trade instead

with what, Axe the Tax ? Canadians don't give a f*ck about that anymore, Poilievre is actually in big trouble if he gets elected, because he doesn't really have a plan for how to deal with Trump, and Trump is not impressed by him in the slightest, and Canada's perspective allies against Trump are not the sorts who would have any time for Poilievre, it's really Doug Ford who is the de facto Canadian Conservative leader now, and Doug Ford can't stand Poilievre, Ontario is not Prairie Populist land, Ontario is PC not CPC

bear in mind, Mark Carney was Stephen Harper's preferred replacement for Jim Flaherty, so the idea that the Conservative Party of Canada, is somehow diametrically opposed to Mark Carney; is obviously nonsense, who is closer to Stephen Harper, is it really Pierre Poilievre ? Poilievre wasn't even invited into Cabinet while Stephen Harper was courting Carney to be Minister of Finance

you are the one who is butt hurt, obviously / shrugs

Justin Trudeau is saving his legacy, he's doing a good job of standing up to Trump, America is quite impressed actually, everyone is talking about how Trudeau told Trump to pound sand

my oath to Elizabeth Windsor heirs & successors was for life and unto death as necessary, if the rest of Canada is for turning, so be it but we Britons hold to our oaths,

sometimes America needs to get its comeuppance too, America is already regretting messing with the Canadians, Americans are already saying ; oh shit, we've really bitten off more than we can chew, Americans are not as scary as Canadians perceive us to be,

we Americans are not going to fight for that, we hate that sort of thing, we are lovers not fighters, we just want to get the girls & make money, we don't want anything to do with foreign wars of occupation, quite the opposite if America tried to invade Canada, there would be a mutiny in the ranks,

I already have American citizenship, so I can come & go as I please, but Americans don't actually owe any fealty to their government, quite the opposite in fact, it's entirely my prerogative as an American to choose to fight for the British Crown, it's a grand old tradition actually, dating back to the First World War my American grandfather served with the RCAF in the Second World War, my American father chose to come to Canada because he was outraged by the Vietnam War, I've always lived on both sides of the border, in Toronto & Los Angeles

that's my kind of propaganda, I was born under the British North America Act 1867 my Canada was British to the bone, I've always been a Royal Canadian, never a Canadian Nationalist

you can't get more Canadian than the Trudeau dynasty, I've been hearing this from Canadians since the 1970's while they were dismantling HM Canadian Armed Forces deliberately, somewhere in that half century of Canada going ever further to the left, I simply ceased to have anymore fealty to the public which voted for it, I am only bound to my solemn oath to Elizabeth Windsor heirs & successors, the House of Windsor is my fatherland, Canadian Confederation is a sub national jurisdiction therein

i simply took Canada at its word
