SALT= State and Local Taxes Can an American explain this to me? In Canada, some provincial/municipal taxes are deductible.

Correct. The IRS requires a US citizen to submit/file a declaration. Every year. Even if you have no income, no wealth. In Canada, the CRA/Revenu Quebec, we do not.

Mamdani speaks well too, but you lost. Why?

1. Milk - loser 2. Education, Unions - loser ==== All things considered, I think that the CAQ might win.

Let's see. Does Poilievre have courage.

In simple terms, we don't need NATO. Harper? I thought Poilievre could think outside the box.

On occasian, ordinary Canadians need help. But Russia is not about to invade us. Reagan won.

We Canadians have two languages and two religions - yet we get along. == You Americans killed each other - like the crazy Europeans.

We Canadians are largely Catholic. Draw your own conclusions.

This is so obvious. Pierre Berton wrote many books about English-Canada nationalism, and he missed this obvious fact. Well, he got the money...

Mercer was Catholic and gay. We get along! ===== Under Smallwood, when the Minister was Catholic, the Deputy was Protestant - and vice-versa.

Old joke - badly reported. ==== Some Newfoundlanders are Catholic, Irish. But most are Protestant.

Unethical?

I reckon that Putin and Xi know this. Heck, imagine Truman at Potsdam. "I have a trump card. I bombed twice."

Local people who know far better. We do not need F-35s.

To return to my OP: 1. Albertans need an outlet to the ocean. 2. BC can be divided.

America? China? German? Prussian? Japan? Russia. I remember looking at these kids, young men. And thinking that if I had to go into battle, I could not hope for a better group. In the 1940s, Jimmy Stewart had such a group.

I do not want to give 5% of my efforts/savings to the military. My taxes? Please cut by 5%. ===== We Canadians get along.

CdnFox, Apparently, you can't. I can. ==== America has sophisticated B-2 bombers that can fly across the world to put bombs precisely below the ground. Wars are fought by young men. Years ago, I taught abroad. I looked at these young men. America no longer has such young men.

Agreed. More Canadians died on the beach in Dieppe than in an Air India plane. How many Newfoundlanders died at Beaumont-Hamel? What's the difference?

Pollsters used to say: "A mile wide but an inch deep."

This guy Mamdani explains what is happening. Trump was first to get it.

Whatever. You try that, you are putting boots on the ground. Soviet soldiers in Berlin. Coulter-style rape. ==== Adam Smith and Lee Quan Yew won. We need a new structure of peace.

I have not read any of O'Reilly's books. And true, he has a co-writer. ==== He strikes me as the American equivalent of English-Canada's Pierre Berton. Years ago, in Quebec, we had Robert Rumilly.
