Highest since back in April 2007 when it was 5.03% US 30yr fixed mortgage rates touched 7%. Diesel in California sitting at just about 10$ USD/gallon.

Carney has said the goal would be to double our non-US exports in 10yrs. Taking that at face value, moving from 30ish% non-US to 60ish% would mean 40ish% still going to the US. A very ambitious goal in 10yrs. I'd consider it a 'win' if we can move it down to 53-55% in 10yrs. I think a...

At least there was 1 person who asked the appropriate question and had the level of responsibility and respect to be listened to. Would the same result have occurred if it was a Jr officer?

Are you mixing the Kool-Aide and I'm pouring it or am I mixing it and you're pouring it? LOL

The Guardian has an interesting read out today. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/sep/11/trump-carney-canada-imperialism Trump’s clash with Canada is his latest imperialistic embarrassment “We’re not going to invade Greenland. We’re going to buy it,” Donald Trump reportedly told...

And the fact that most of us can quite easily 'walk among them' without them even being aware of it. Never under estimate the value of that.

They are going to do all they can to make life tougher for Trump from now to the mid terms.

It’s like I’m watching some mega church pastor talking to his followers.

Again, define 'displace'. No one is suggesting, at least I'm certainly not, suggesting that US trade is go to zero or even close to zero. But, moving from 70ish% down to 50ish% or 45ish% would be a prudent thing to do.

There could be ways to 'figure things out' I would assume if one really, truly wanted to know. Some of this are assumptions and some are facts. The Trustee must provide quarterly a 'performance' report on the assets being managed. That could be something as basic as a 1 liner - Jan 1, 2026...

Sorry, no 'anti-USA' fervor, just anti incompetent President and sycophant minions around him. I have dual citizenship, as does my whole family. Have worked/lived in the US for a number of years. I have over 75% of my extended family living in the US. I chose Canada over the US for myself...

Sure, whatever you say. Again, if you need a sponsor for your US immigration forms just say the word and I’ll put myself down as a reference for you. It’s a ‘poor example’ because it’s relevant and works against you.

It is NOT like the ‘trust’ that Donald has and that his ‘children’ are running and managing the thousands and thousands of trades they perform each and every quarter…..

Why, do you think that was necessary?

Who the f8Ck cares about Maia, where she comes from or where she's worked in the past. The SINGLE question should be - is she best for that role today? Go and google who David Frum is. He's a Canadian and was Jr Bush's speechwriter. Do you think that Republicans got their panties in a twist...

What we've 'earned' is the right to not 'be forgotten' when the rebuild comes. I can see ALOT of potential infrastructure needs that Canada can cover off once the guns falls silent. Play the long game, be more like China in strat thinking and less like a WH Goldfish.

To be honest, if he 'holds' the House and/or the Senate, I haven't the foggiest as to what to expect. I don't think anyone really does. All bets are off and just about anything may in fact occur.

I'm good for now.

I just watched the full interview on CNBC this morning, just under 9mins. Speaking openly and frankly - and giving credit where credit is due - PP did a huge favour for Carney and for Canada. He clearly laid out that Canadians are 'wounded' by what Trump has done to us and called for us to go...

I'm not as well for conspiracy. I was merely pointing out a previously occurred historical fact and calling out that a similar event just happened. Events don't happen in isolation. There are linkages all around us. Some are easy to spot (leave out a full green bin in Toronto and you'll have...
