  1. One thing I am going to ask my financial advisor is if the US is keeping a withholding on earnings from my US investments in my TSFA, why do I have US equities and bonds in my TSFA.
  2. It's been almost 5 months since his tariffs started going into effect. I would say we are starting to see the results now.
  3. So those who say it is the world's largest prison are correct. So all the land they are stealing belongs to terrorists? Maintaining all Palestinians are terrostists is as stupid as saying all Jews are Zionists.
  4. Doesn't really matter. Arson, accident or stupidity, the result is the same.
  5. All depends on the efficiency of the car and aircraft. Some cars burn a lot less fuel than others and some aircraft are more efficient than others. Also depends on whether you want to take 3 days or 3 hours to get there.
  6. Trump's tariffs were supposed to reduce the deficit and finance tax cuts. Looks like the opposite is happening.
  7. They have never had full control over Gaza or the West Bank. Israel has always controlled who entered and leaved Gaza snd has allowed the displacement of Arabs in the West Bank to allow construction of Jewish settlements. A few western nations? https://edition.cnn.com/world/middleeast/countries-recognize-palestinian-state-intl-vis
  8. https://www.visualcapitalist.com/which-countries-have-the-most-industrial-robots/ https://roboticsandautomationnews.com/2025/04/12/top-30-industrial-robotics-companies-in-2025/89670/
  9. So what's the object, more healthy, lazy poor people?
  10. Mostly because the rest of the world was in ruins after WW2 and the US had no competition. Those days are gone and won't be coming back.
  11. Canadian MAGA's seem to love troops in the streets, why weren't they demanding them during the trucker demonstration?
  12. US deficit up 20% despite an increase of $21 billion in customs duty's due to Trumps tariffs. https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/business/2025/08/12/us-deficit-grows-to-us291-billion-in-july-despite-surge-in-tariff-revenue/
  13. Many of them in their homes along with their families or other innocent people. Apparently you believe they were all Hamas operatives. If Israel wants to claim people were Hamas associates they need to provide evidence to back it up, otherwise they can use it as an excuse to do anything. Which they are.
  14. A: There are not nice secure hotels or anything else in Gaza right now. 234 dead journalists from numerous countries should make that clear. B: So you unconditionally accept that NP's claim the Israeli military is right, while saying that the CBC reporting the Israeli claims are being disputed is propaganda. Not saying the Israeli claims are bogus but merely reporting they are being challenged, which they are.
  15. Who would invade Mexico except the US?
  16. There would be no need for a NATO except for Russia.
  17. Carney was able to play the nationalist card because of Trump. PP would be PM now if it wasn't for Trump's nationalism.
  18. Actually Belgium has its own internal divisions and partition into separate Flemish and Walloon states has been discussed. Belgium was in invaded and occupied during both world wars and has always been the invasion route for waring neighbours. Waterloo is in Belgium.
  19. Who do we believe. https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/how-many-palestinians-has-israels-gaza-offensive-killed-2025-03-24/ It shouldn't be a stretch to understand that if you bomb and shell the crap out of densely populated areas for 10 months you are going to kill a lot of innocent people. Because multiple families live in the same building, several generations are being wiped out by one bomb. Religious fanaticism is a factor on both sides, with Hamas and the ultra right religious parties propping up Netanyahu.
  20. The median age in Gaza is 18. Half the people there were less than a year old when Hamas took power and half of the rest would have been too young to vote. You clowns say Israel isn't committing genocide then you say that's what they should be doing. If your mentality is what they are up against, they really have no choice but to fight back as hard as they can.
  21. Don't confuse the narrative, this thread is supposed to be about CBC bias, not NP bias. Pointing out NP bias makes the OP unhappy. Do not make the OP unhappy.
  22. Canada's tariffs on China are a result of catering to your hero Herr Trump. If Carney lifts tariffs on China, Canada will be punished by Herr Trump and you will dump on Carney for that. Win win for you but not for your country.
  23. They could be descendants of Jews, Philistines, Assyriians, Babylonians, Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Ottomans plus a few others. Palestine nationalism became a thing during the Ottoman period.
  24. So far 234 journalists have been killed in Gaza, I suppose they all must have been Hamas operatives.Very disappointing that the NP would just accept Israel's word with no corroberation. Shit journalism. The guy was a Pulitzer Prise winner.
  25. .So what is your solution? You say it isn't genocide but your words say otherwise. Many were forced out. If all the Palestinians stayed in what is now Israel, the population would be 40% Arab. Do you think Israel would stand for that? Do you think Egypt would want over 2 million refugees just dumped on them overnight? Of course not, that's why two states is the only solution that has a chance.
