while a delusional Preznit Fuckwit imagines he can re-name Lake Ontario (spoiler alert: he can't), Canada has a real chance to seriously fuck with our economy. thank you for your attention to today's post, in which I explain how. link is here: bit.ly/4y0Y6CC
the Welland Canal is the only shipping route between the American side of Lake Erie and the Canadian side of Lake Ontario. approximately 26.3 billion dollars’ worth American goods pass through the Canal every year.

it’d be a real shame if Canada were to rename the Welland Canal to, oh, say, the Strait of Our Moose, and close it down.
