CHINA 👇 #cdnpoli "The US is a war addict. Throughout its over 240-year history, it has been at war for all but 16 years. The US has 800 overseas military bases in over 80 countries and regions. The US is the main cause of international disorder, global turbulence, and regional instability."

“The world isn’t deglobalizing. It’s reglobalizing around partners who commit to rules rather than those who wield tariffs like a club.” Excerpt From “Opinion | Everyone Else Is Trading Without Us” David Hebert The Wall Street Journal apple.news/AZmf02DGiQd-...

Opinion | Everyone Else Is Trading Without Us — The Wall Street Journal

Tariffs have made the U.S. so unpredictable that our usual partners are looking elsewhere to make deals.

Hurt also plays a great hit man in an older film called The Hit, directed by Stephen Frears. Also has Tim Roth as a nearly adolescent hit-man-in-training.

Former Canadian military are speaking out against the partial cancellation of the American F35 contract with Canada. The article below pimps the F35 as best for NA defence, but does not mention a possible invasion of this country by the US. Kill switch, anyone?

It’s clear there are elements in the Canadian military that favour military and technological integration with American forces while the Canadian public overwhelmingly do not. Might there be a need to remove those from the military who are in thrall to the charisma of American technology?

CARNEY: "Aristotle once taught that virtue is like a muscle that grows with exercise. We become just by doing just acts, brave by doing brave acts, empathetic when we show empathy, when we are kind, kindness grows. When we are Canadian, Canada grows. Pride. Is. Canadian." #cdnpoli #pride

So let me get this straight: Trump wants Apple to move production to the US so it can pay tariffs on the materials it uses for phones. Brilliant. Why isn’t Apple jumping at this splendid offer? #Tariffs #Apple

There’ll be a revolt in that province against Smith and her betrayals — not everyone in the province believes in her. The most un-Canadian of premiers will go down in flames one day. Or at least with a whimper.

I read this statement with deep emotion and gratitude. We share a border with a nation whose president has declared his intention to crush us. Military invasion is something most Canadians now fear is possible. May we show a fraction of the courage your country has shown in defending itself.

Very interesting and helpful—thanks. We still need to rethink the F35 purchase for security reasons. The other alternatives still depend on production in other countries. Even France could go fascist after all.

Sure it’s a relief that Trump has relented on some tariffs. But such hijinks will be replaced by others. As Francis Bacon once said, “Hope is a good breakfast, but an ill supper.”
