Listening to Mr Andrew Oland regarding the hit to Moosehead beer being tariffed as exported to the USA, the writing was on the wall was it not? As Canadian liquor boards pulled US booze, except for the Maple MAGA kingdoms of Alberta and Saskatchewan, a hit to Canadian booze was inevitable.

The cheapest new car in Oz is an EV! Destroyed the myth that EVs are only for “the rich”. If you don’t want to buy new. The second hand market is full of far cheaper EVs.

#Stellantis the Jeep Compass was “repatriated” to Illinois and now the Company is trying to sell the Brampton plant. Time to think twice about buying Jeep, Ram, Dodge, Chrysler.

From CBC, Canada imports more than we export to the EU! How shocking! According to Pedolph Shitler, we should be tariffing the ass off them. “We imported about $92 billion worth of goods from the EU last year and exported about $39 billion, according to Statistics Canada.”

#Trumplies about 400% dairy tariffs Canada charges for imported dairy above certain quota. USA has never paid any tariff. The following from AI compares the two systems. Although Canadian retail appears higher, when all US subsidies are included, the final price of dairy is very similar.

#Trumplies “Canada is very difficult to deal with”. What does he mean? This has nothing to do with “subsidy” or “trade deficit” or “fentanyl” or “forced labour” he is always on about. It’s simply a bully trying to overwhelm and destroy his neighbour because he covets what they have.

#Poilievre says Conservatives just want free trade with the USA. I don’t have security clearance but I do know that Trump wants tariff free access to Canadian markets but wants Canada to pay tariffs for access to the US market. One sided which is why we walked. What a buffoon.

#LakeOntario you would think that both Google and Apple would be able to get this right. The name of the lake should be Lake Ontario on the Canadian side of the boundary line and Lake America on the US side of the boundary line. Domestic water names can be changed by the regional authority.

#gasprices given we’ve hit $2.27/L on the west coast, time to watch for your oil stock dividend cheque. If the consumer carbon tax and federal excise tax were still in place, gas would be closing in on $2.60/L. Diesel would be over $3.00/L. Even Trump knows the O&G companies are ripping us off.

#tariffs If Provinces did put US alcohol back on liquor store shelves in exchange for suitable tariff relief, would Canadians buy it?

#Tariffs time to add $5 or maybe $10/bbl exported to the US. Use that $20M to $40M/day to offset Trump’s 50% tariffs. Great time to do it as oil prices are yo-yoing every day.

Interprovincial trade barriers with respect to alcohol clearly demonstrate we are lead by greedy incompetent idiots. Everyone, anywhere within Canada should be able to order alcohol from any Canadian producer if that product is for personal use. How can this be so difficult?

So Journey’s keyboard player Johnathan Cain has told Bruce Springsteen to lay off #Trump and stay out of politics. Great advice from the guy who’s married to the televangelist Paula White-Cain a former, and this is not made up, spiritual advisor to the Grifter in Chief.

#Poilievre presser just declared his way to get Canadian resources to primarily the Asian market is to fast track distribution systems by ignoring/repealing 2019 C-69, allow tankers on north BC coast. Canadians of all cultures, including First Nations do not support this. How will it be done?

#TrumpLies He just claimed the price of gasoline is as low as $1.98/G. That is the RBOB product price - Wholesale, unfinished gasoline. This is like saying the price of new car is based on a vehicle with no windows or wheels. RBOB product is a component of retail gasoline.

Oil company rip-off lower mainland BC? On Mar 31 the oil company retail take was $1.07/L. On Apr 2 the retail take was over $1.17. Consumers were to get almost $0.19 discount for the CT+GST. Oil company take in Kelowna and PG is only $1.03/L - the interior got 14 cents off! Ask Gas Buddy Why!

Dani Smith must act on behalf of the country, certainly not hurt Alberta which is her first priority, but still join team Canada. Oil flows to the USA and she doesn’t want to stop that, most Canadians don’t want to stop that flow. Stop working poolside at MAGA-A-Lardo and act like a Canadian.

The Orange Tariff Turd hits again with misinformation, or more accurately, lies. $200B subsidy is BS, it is $45B trade deficit in Canada’s favour, due largely to the things the dipstick says the USA does not need, oil and gas, electricity, cars and car parts, steel and AL, potash etc. #Trumplies

Listening to Trump sitting there saying Canada has a $200B deficit is #Trumplies. It is more like $45B and if the USA didn’t buy $120B of Canadian O&G, I guess by his rules we would subsidize the US. What a buffoon. Can’t believe CEOs are not on the phone to their RINO congressmen and senators.

Visiting the doge.gov website when I clicked on the more info button and I was asked to join X. Does Trump know about this? Damn, if POTUS had any business knowledge, it would have been Truth Social would it not?

Trump signed an EO that halts birthright citizenship. He said the US is the only country that allows birthright citizenship. Canada and much of the Americas allows birthright citizenship including something Trump does not respect - The US Constitution. #Trumplies

#Trumplies Trump just said the US does not need Canadian oil and gas. I’m confused. Currently the US uses about 20M BBL/day. 4M BBL/day comes from Canada. Trump also wants KXL. That adds almost 1M BBL/day for total of 5M BBL Canadian oil/day. Does he need it or not?

Trump indicated he would tariff Russia as a way to stop the invasion of Ukraine. With GDP of over $2T and US trade at $15B, do you think he has a clue that’s less than 0.75% of Russia’s GDP? Putin is spending more than $15B in Ukraine each day and it’s pocket change for Trump’s buddy. #Trumplies

#Trumplies recent post by Trump on Liars Social indicates Russia lost some 60M people during WWII. I can’t find any indication the Soviet Union lost more than about 24M, still a staggering amount, but not what Trump has posted.

CBC stated the issue is not the carbon tax, the issue is climate change. The issue Canadians might be questioning is the effectiveness of Canada’s #carbontax in addressing climate change. The tax has become onerous and is losing support, specifically in BC. Globally, is it making a difference?
