Hudson's Bay, Canadian Businesses
TreeBeard replied to 500channelsurfer's topic in Business and Economy
You have no idea who is managing the Bay and making the poor business decisions. Ultimately, a business’ success or failure is on the person that owns it, wouldn’t you agree? I don’t blame Brazilians if a Canadian mining company operating in Brazil goes broke. -
Oh, he’s our own version of Trump right up until a couple weeks ago when they realized being really angry about Canada isn’t a great strategy anymore. It works on people like yourself, but the average Canadian voter doesn’t hate the country based on their feelings about Trudeau. https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/pierre-poilievre-justin-trudeaus-main-rival-in-canada-has-donald-trump-like-tendencies-7274779 For Felix Mathieu, a politics professor at the University of Winnipeg, "the parallels between Mr Poilievre and Mr Trump are growing." "Like Mr Trump, he does not necessarily seek to rely on rational discourse, he relies on slogans, and he seeks to generate popular fervor more than support for ideas." Representing the right wing in the western part of the country and strongly influenced by US conservatives, he has not hesitated in the past to share links to false information on social media if it bolsters his position. In 2022, he supported a truckers' lockdown of the capital Ottawa over their opposition to vaccine mandates and other protocols aimed at containing the spread of Covid-19. Recently, he shared on social media platform X a petition that rails against an alleged government plan to impose a "global woke program" on Canadians aimed at making everyone eat insects. No such program exists. That move was a way for the party to collect the contact information of possible supporters, but also to exploit Canadians' exasperation with the political status quo, Mathieu said.

The improvement fee, which is added to the ticket, is about $25 more in Canada. You gave the numbers. How am I lying by doing math? Check my work for me: $32 minus $6, rounded down. Sure, I might have been $1 off, but that’s a rounding error. The more expensive Canadian fee accounts for $25 in the price of a ticket. How am I lying?

The Bay is owned by an American…. sooo…. maybe that’s the wrong question to ask? -
You mean, into the building?
