  1. In Jan 1969 was in the midst of the Cold War and America's amblvalence: https://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/documents/inaugural-address-1
  2. After LBJ and the federal Civil Rights Act of 1964, the only Democrat to win was Carter and Clinton. As a Canadian, Obama was a lost opportunity.
  3. I have the OLED screen. I would choose no other. Studio? No. I have this because of the detachable keyboard. I like Microsoft because it allows me control/choice. Apple does not. It has two USB-C and the MS magnet on the other side. MS should lower all ports, give a physical touch to know where (When bluetooth fails, I have no sound. It should have a plug-in headphone). The weird AI button is useless, badly placed. The keyboard should have raised dots for keys.
  4. Northern Leftst/Prgressive/Jewisk Amwicans still today describe this as Nixon's move. LBJ lost the racist south.
  5. Reagan. Bush (Snr and Jnr) were Hitler Nazi.
  6. Make no mistake, Trump and Nixon were outsiders.
  7. $2000, every month? Most people in Greenland will vote in favouu.
  8. Carney is a version of Ignatieff. Freeland will ultimately win.
  9. Tukon: 45.000 people Nunavut/NWT - the two: about 100,000 people. === I reckon that Trump could offer a better deal.
  10. You have no idea how the North works.
  11. Nixon was ambitious Trump is competitive.
  12. Both were outsiders. Both had lost - but comeback. Both were negotiators. ==== They played their game very differently. Trump's 2025 Inauguration speech was a campaign speech. Nixon named Rogers - then did everything with Kissinger.
  13. Pathetically stupid? In federal Canadian politics, you must speak French.
  14. In the 1990s (Bush/Clinton), post-Soviet Nixon/Reagan won. At present - since 2010s or so, we live in a multi-polar world.
  15. As John Cleese says, Americans have no understanding of irony. I'm Canadian: Americans lack self-awareness. == I can see myself on a stage, in a theatre. Other people looking at me. Americans cannot.
  16. Agreed. ===== But what happens when the next Hitler/Napoleon/Psychopath takes power and invades Russia?
  17. There is a reason our BNA Act gives natural resources to provinces.
  18. Good point. Norway has its own currency, and is not part of the EU. Smart Lutherans? Sustainable?
  19. I would hold a referendum.
  20. Greenland's population is about 60,000 people. Offer them US $2,000 each month, forever - what's that? - $12 billion each year?
  21. Nixon left office, as they say, in 1974 and died in 1994. Pierre Trudeau left office in 1984 and died in 2000. Here's my question: Between 1984 and 1994, did these two guys meet?
  22. I strongly disagree. Europe was a wonderful place in Summer 1914. Like now = 2025 or so.
  23. First, he would have to become leader of the PLQ.
