Aristides

Trump has been babbling about hitting capital gains by foreign investors at 50%. I’m not adding anything to my US investments while he is playing those games.

Why is it that Canadian Trumpers can’t disagree with anyone without attaching a label and an insult.

Actually I did when it came up. Words to the effect that if he tipped over after horfing down a bucked of KFC, i wouldn't shed any tears but totally against the idea of assassination because of the chaos that could result. The US is so polarized I hate to think what might happen.

I’m often wrong but I don’t lie.

You really are a sad angry man. I've never supported assassinations, if only because they can open a can of worms we really don't want to see.

Ya, just keep insulting people, that will be sure to win them over. Some people never learn.

Can it be there are actually be people who think sea level rise will only affect blue states? Like ice and water has some sort of party affiliation?

The first election I was eligible to vote in was 1968 and like most I voted for Trudeau in the original Trudeaumania. I have voted PC, Reform, Alliance and Conservative in every election since until this one. There are a couple of reasons. My former MP and Harper cabinet minister decided not to run and the party picked an unknown who didn't attend any candidate meetings or give any interviews but still won by a landslide because the Conservatives could run a chimp in my riding and still win easily. Sorry but I just couldn't vote for that guy. Another is that while PP is no Trump by any stretch of the imagination, many Canadians see a lot of similarities in his everything broken, everything bad, sloganeering, name calling campaign style and they don't like it, self included. It is clear now that the Conservative's lead in the polls was due more to Trudeau's unpopularity than thing else and as hard as it is for Canadian Trumpers to swallow, Donald Trump lost Pierre Poilievre the last election. For me the choice was a gamble and for better or worse I gambled on Carney. Will I regret that in two years? Maybe but I sure hope not because I will always put my country ahead of any political party and if PP had won I would be saying the same thing. So in instead of whinging and hurling insults maybe you should be asking yourself why many lifelong Conservative voters like me switched the last election. Sometimes the best thing you can do is just look in a mirror. How will I vote in the next election? Right now I really have no idea.

You sure think you know a lot about me. You don’t know shit. I don’t know if Carney was the right guy or not but we’ve got him now so lets hope he can get the job done instead of letting your hatred rule everything you do and say. The big difference between us is I’m not a partisan fanatic.

It always comes down to personal insults with you. Some things never change. Americans are paying the tariffs not other countries. It's a tax on Americans.

You're right, it isn't a tax, It's being paid by the imaginary people who talk to you every day.

So what, they are still a tax on imports. Liquor and tobacco taxes are used to limit their use. They are still taxes. But there is no point in arguing when someone is being deliberately obtuse so I will leave it there.

Well, that's just stupid. Hate itself is just stupid, it's a destructive emotion and no good ever comes from it, especially for the haters.

Ice melts in summer not winter. This guy pick one irrelevant statistic, builds a hypothesis around it and you swallow it without question because it is what you want to hear. He picks one temperature to base his claim then says every other temperature recorded by the same people is faulty. WTF.

So why doesn’t he talk about summer temperatures, that’s when the melt happens. -50 or -80 it’s still frozen. F”ck all happens then.

Why are you babbling on about average winter temperatures? Ice doesn’t melt in the winter. Average summer temperatures have been rising for decades but of course your source doesn’t mention that.

Between 9.5 and ten gigatons of carbon from fossil fuels is released. Into the atmosphere annually. That equates to 35 to 37 gigatons of CO2. Does anyone seriously think we can do that with no consequences?

We may have passed the tipping point already, it won’t be until sometime after it happens that we can look back and say, this is was probably it.

That’s exactly what I have been saying. If we want a dairy industry the options are protect it or subsidize it.

Government subsides pay them to over produce. It's so easy to refute you guys because you hate your own government and swallow whatever Donnie feeds you without fact checking anything he says.

They don't care about New York but how about Miami. Tampa, Ft Myers, Ft Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, Galveston, Huston, Freeport, Corpus Cristi, New Orleans, Mobil, Pensacola etc. Mara Lago, THE HORROR!
