Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 22/09/2026So the "deal" apparently is revealed as not have existed except in his mind. Paraphrasing our brothers in Ukraine: "We are lucky they are so f***ing stupid". 000

Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 08/09/2026The only reason to have pushed so hard for it was against US flooding our market. If that is off the table (seemingly more likely with the total collapse of trust in that country) then all bets are off to re-aligning relative to the EU. 010
Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 08/09/2026Was literally going to say exactly this. Agreeing to harmonize on higher standards and generally farmer-friendly policies could be win-win for both consumers and producers. 120
Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 08/09/2026Good topic - but needs a much deeper focus on business and politics to truly explore the depths of the adverse consequences. 100
Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 05/09/2026Easiest way I can explain it - the last ice age was 4 degrees cooler and North America was almost entirely covered with a mile of ice. Imagine the exact opposite of that and you will know how f**ked humanity is. 010

Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 04/09/2026The ads write themselves: "Remember when you sewed a Canadian flag on your backpack to tour around Europe in your twenties? Well, you can apply the same principle to your whole company! Cheap (un-tarriffed) raw materials. Educated and multi-lingual workforce. etc. etc. " 182
Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 04/09/2026Hoo boy this might get complicated. Anglo quebeckers would also often say cottage (at least in West Quebec). Chalet may apply near a ski hill or not near a body of water though. 250

Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 01/09/2026Maybe I am getting to "old man yells at cloud" age - but there isn't anything here I disagree with. Maybe it also would have been a good idea to save more than a postage stamp worth of old growth forest. 🤷♂️ 010

Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 26/08/2026Of course it's a foreign source reporting on this. My guess is that these stories don't get nearly the airtime as the price of eggs got in the last election despite the pandemic teaching us that toilet paper access is the key marker of civilization. 261
Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 25/08/2026Proper retaliation would be better labelling for US products (bring a magnifying glass!) so we can avoid them with less effort. 020
Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 24/08/2026Focus on what we want as a country - not just what we get as the consequence of being next to that market. 192
Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 24/08/2026I feel the biggest opportunity in this economic warfare is the ability to start re-evaluating *cultural* choices that are tied up in commerce. Open markets to European small cars. Restrict monstrously large SUVs/trucks. Build walkable cities and prioritize quality of life over the profit of a few. 1112

Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 23/08/2026I'm always reminded of this when giving visiting guests tours of the Rideau canal whose entire purpose was a strategic route to the ocean in case the US blockaded the St. Lawrence. 010
Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 22/08/2026Walking away was the right decision. We gave two rounds of concessions and they kept extorting us for more. It's clear the demands were not going to end - so we move on from this abusive relationship. 010
Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 22/08/2026Time will tell. Canadians don't love economic bad news but we are also aware this isn't coming out of mis-management and there is a clear malevolence behind these actions against us. 010
Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 21/08/2026Honestly, they should have walked away. And also clearly implied that some retaliation (like selling off US bonds) around, oh, late-October might be in the cards. 1210
Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 20/08/2026And I'm sure you'd find that going decades back - well before they put the guy who looks and sounds like botulism in a trenchcoat in charge of it all. 000
Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 20/08/2026We fear the food supply policies of the US more than we fear farmers gouging us on produce. If we were on an island with no giant market next door, that attitude might be vastly different. 110

Mark Demeny 🇨🇦 @markdemeny.com · 18/08/2026Best way to more predictability is more diversification and less dealing with unstable extortionists. 030
