Canadians build great technology. Some of them are sitting in your app store right now, waiting for a turn. From email to streaming to ride apps, each of these alternatives is Canadian-owned and operated. (A check mark means I use it myself!) ✅ Our full list is at unplug.todmaffin.com #BuyCanadian

Shannon Proudfoot on Alberta separatists colluding with GOP operatives: "I just don't think we should be under any delusions anymore that anything we're having an internal debate about is ours and ours alone. We have to be aware that astroturfing is constant now."

We tried to stay friends. That said, there is only so much aggression, insults, and attacks on our sovereignty, economy, culture, and leaders that we could take. Canadians are accomodators, but there is only so much abuse we could take before walking away

Yes, pipelines use lots of steel. For a Canadian pipeline, though, the need for steel is a few years away. Same with the new Canadian icebreakers and the Via Rail cars. Transitioning to new markets and increasing domestic consumption of steel takes time.

🇨🇦 Dave210 🇨🇦 @dave210.bsky.social · 01/10/2026
I'm not sure what type of steel they produce, but between the tariffs and the oversupply of Chinese steel, the market just dropped for Canadian steel. So I think we need to focus on building new export markets for steel and growing our domestic market.

🇨🇦 Dave210 🇨🇦 @dave210.bsky.social · 01/10/2026
Steel is in cars, houses, condos, trucks, high rises, rail cars... The market is there. The buyers in the US are reluctant to buy Canadian because of the tariffs so they are buying from other countries. 90 percent of our steel went to the US before the tariffs went on. We are finding other buyers

🇨🇦 Dave210 🇨🇦 @dave210.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
Just saw an article on CBC app that shows Carney saying that Stelco will be prosecuted following layoffs. The market is there but tariffs are delaying purchases. Canadian steel is sought because of its high quality

That's what I'm suggesting - giving money to the employees once they are laid off. Nothing to the company. I don't know if the company has received any funding to keep the employees employed, but if it has and lays them off anyway, then yes, they should be sued by the government

It's a hard one to manage. It might be better to offer the laid-off staff some enhanced unemployment benefits rather than giving the company any funding.

Exactly. Research doesn't include what your cousin's uncle's brother, etc. says on social media. Unfortunately, that seems to be the standard approach these days since we are losing our ability for critical and analytical thinking

Stelco's CEO is a big Trump supporter, so only a blank cheque from the Canadian govt will do. Conditions, such as keeping Canadian workers on staff in a company on Canadian soil is totally unacceptable to him
