Yes. Literally stole it from him. That mp's son works for Carney at Brookfield. Just a coincidence I'm sure. They also kept 250000 liberal party members from voting for the party leader. Shenanigans all around.

I've heard this before. Would be interested to see some details on how it works. You'd think the Canadian people would have a say. Mind you, we don't even get to choose our leaders.

For sure they have a right, I don't see why they would. They have the resources to survive and thrive on their own. That's interesting about Cuba.

We can do very little to take out the players at the top, the "cabal" or whatever you want to call it. Thought that was what the WH were doing. Then the people take over and rebuild.

I don't think you can just suddenly own canada. Why join the US? They would be fine on their own. We're not talking about quebec here.

Only paper for this election. I think they messed with advanced voting.

I worked poll midway between ottawa and Toronto, small rural riding of about 320 voters. I stayed to help with tabulation and left about 10:30pm. Cbc was calling liberal win while I was driving home. Polls still open in half the country at that time. BTW our results: 313 total votes, 213 conservative, 87 liberal.

Carney gave trump team hundreds of millions of dollars. End of story.

She is tired of tranfer payments to quebec. She would support more going to eastern provinces, particularly if they help build pipelines. I feel like this is more unifying than anything from any Canadian leader in decades.

What if we say we don't want american dairy or American banks in canada? Processed foods with toxic ingredients, theres some legit reasons to not want some products here, Is that just unacceptable or are exclusion generally allowed?
There's got to be stuff we can just say no to and you've got a few of your own I would expect?

Was this a problem prior to trudeau? Must have been.

Oh, I see, so there is an effort to offset by mixing and matching. But then we don't follow through or just change it as we go like adding "digital tax"?

Do you have a background in this realm?

I'm having lunch with former director General of canadian treasury next week. I'm going to pick his brain as well. I have not spent much time on trade issues. I'm finding it pretty interesting.

The freeland comment was a joke. I'm terrified of the deal jt is going to make. He will screw us over again.

Wait, I think I've got this figured out: Canadians have been paying an extra tax so to punish them, Americans must pay an extra tax which isn't fair so Canadians must pay additional tax and if they continue to do so, Americans will be charged even more tax.

Does that about sum it up? Sounds a bit scammy.

Who's FA and who's FO?

Great handle BTW! I know we have charged tariffs, didn't realize it was on so much stuff until recently. We don't want the dairy with hormones and antibiotics and vaccines etc.it was my understanding tat was the motivation for dairy tariffs. Can you even buy canadian dairy in the us? There is no US dairy here. Our dairy market control is ridiculous. We dump thousands of litres daily but that's a whole other issue. But hasn't US always tariffed a bunch of our stuff? Softwood lumber for instance. And wasn't all this part of the last trade deal, you know when christia freeland really beat up on trump in those negotiations.

If that is going to be the economic model then there is no such thing as reciprocal tariffs? If Kentucky bourbon wants access to canada they have to manufacture here. Is that the goal or does US only get to charge tariffs?

Drugs of all kinds flow quite freely back and forth across both borders to meet demand in all three countries. I hope you're not suggesting that the US is just an innocent bystander. How many guns cross our border illegally from the US? How many humans are trafficked? I don't think any US citizens have invaded canada but lots of illegals have come here through the US after being bussed to the border from the south. Again, there is regular flow back and forth across both borders because there is a network of people who benefit from that flow.
