@laurasimba.bsky.social I left Sudbury in 1963 when my family moved to Saskatchewan, so I don’t remember very much. I still have some cousins there. I remember the story of my Dad, two of his brothers, and my Grandpa showing up to enlist in the Canadian army the day the office opened.

Trump's threats of invading Canada has led to this! Sweden is guiding Canada on how to make their own jets; not buy from us. It is going to cost our country $80,000,000,000.00 in exports. How many jobs is that? Trump couldn't run a business and he can't run a country. =======================

Today's Canadian Meme ================== Thanks to Trump, Canadians are now boycotting these eateries. This is in addition to a boycott on all our products in all stores and visiting our country. Trump wanted a trade war and he got one! --------------------------

Besant and his boss have made it obvious- they don’t want a trade agreement with Canada. They want to break us economically so we will come whimpering back to the table - regardless of how much pain it causes the average American citizen.

Trump says his tariffs will help US workers, but he may actually be putting them out of a job. Not only do tariffs make it harder for American companies to source products, but retaliation from our trading partners (like Canada) will shrink export markets. In a trade war, there are no winners.

It's been reported that not only did US demands include tromping on Canada's sovereign right to full control of trade relationships with other countries AND French language labeling of goods, but also a sneaky last min "we can tariff you again any time we want" clause. So what's the fecking point?

Well, good news, Rob—they can't butt in, because it's provincial jurisdiction. But what's federal jurisdiction is that they don't have to send health transfers if the province doesn't meet the conditions of the Canada Health Act. That's not butting in. That's merely applying legislated conditions.

The persecution of Dr. Fauci is a disgrace. Why doesn't a Canadian university invite Anthony Faucci to Canada to take up residence as a professor emeritus? The federal government should take efforts to fast track the move.

The mistake is thinking these tariffs mainly hurt Canada. They don't. Much of the cost ends up here at home, in the prices American households and businesses pay.⁣ ⁣ newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/…
