    CAN-USA Tariff Strife (split from various pol threads)

    Canada was done dirty by the rest of the globe. If everyone else had found their cohones and slapped tariffs on the USA in a coordinated effort, the USA would have long backed down. Instead they acted like scolded children and end up surprised when Trump comes back time and time again, pulling...

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    The topic was about government accountability, supposed savings, and the predictable effects of all the job cuts from certain government departments. I suppose one can make the argument that I could or should have included all of DOGE's nonsense when saying DOGE was a joke. But within the...

    Shame at this rate we end up in the EU. Well, not a shame for me.

    I mean, that goes without saying. I meant DOGE was a joke at its intended stated purpose.

    https://abcnews.com/US/doges-claim-110b-savings-vastly-inflated-riddled-errors/story?id=135447522 So so serious. The most serious of serious. DOGE was a joke. Saved almost nothing, currently killing people and making people sick. Brilliantly stupid.

    CAN-USA Tariff Strife (split from various pol threads)

    Except all the Premiers were kept abreast of the talks and seem to believe the Canadian negotiation team version of events. Only one Liberal at the table, Susan Holt. So unless you're saying every Premier is also lying or is easily duped...ah, who am I kidding.

    Right, because DOGE totally went after the right people in terms of job cuts, and totally saved the US budget as advertised. Meanwhile the USA is killing many more civilians than usual in its conflicts and their food contamination is throught the roof. DOGE is a cautionary tale You don't save...

    https://www.timescolonist.com/opinion/les-leyne-recording-appears-to-have-findlay-offering-job-in-exchange-for-mlas-seat-12716180 I'm sure everyone who were upset at the insinuation that Carney bribed CPC MPs to join the LPC will be similarly outraged here that we have actual recordings of...

    We have a chance to do something very funny.

    ETTD. I don't need to wonder. Well, that's not true. It makes me wonder about everyone who wanted DOGE up here in Canada. This could easily be us.

    Turns out firing all the food inspectors has negative effects on the food supply. Who. Would. Have. Guessed.

    Yeah, this thread is showing a generational divide. The younger posters are using a lot more metric than imperial.

    https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-08-27/canada-current-account-surplus-hits-highest-since-2005-on-oil-surge I said it before and I'll say it again. Putting a economist in charge and then having good economic results somehow just seems logical, but the LPC put Trudeau in power...

    My butcher only uses Kg so I've moved to that. It's not hard, it just takes making an effort.

    CAN-USA Tariff Strife (split from various pol threads)

    We should dump ours every time the Japanese dump theirs. But yes, the markets either don't trust inflation not to eat away at the value of the 30 year bonds or they think the US is planning to run inflation hot to shrink the size of their debt, either way, I expect 5.4 is not far away. The...

    For all the talk of America doing great, their deficit is high, their growth is low, the bond market is turning on them, and inflation is still not at benchmark. And they pick now to pick a fight with us? Start a fight from a position of weakness, thats how you win ~Don Tzu

    CAN-USA Tariff Strife (split from various pol threads)

    I think on the french stuff, the Americans are mistaking what the issue was. We have Lutnick saying he doesnt care what people speak in quebec. That wasn't the issue. We have Greer saying french language on tech platforms wasn't a red line. Okay, but he's dropping that as an issue after the...
