Who do we need protection from? The only nation that’s openly threatening Canada’s sovereignty is the one claiming we need their protection from.
Getting rather tired of premier trumps bullshit I wish he’d take is loosely collected provences of the non European content and fuck right off
( You can read premier as provincial leader or the guy who answers to Putin what ever catches your fancy)
So it’s a protection racket. Gotcha. Brought to you by the Captured States of America.
Trump has been LARPing as a mob boss his entire adult life. This makes sense.
We need to start calling them what they are, the Fascist States of America.
I’ve been calling Republicans the American Nazi Party, or Nat C (Nationalist Christian) Party
So it’s a protection racket. Gotcha. Brought to you by the
Captured StatesThe Peoples Republic of America.FTFY
Democratic People’s Republic of America.
What are we in danger of? Having too many resources that don’t belong to the US? I’m waiting for someone to wake up and realize the third time’s the charm so we can stop having to entertain this idiot.
Manufacturing consent
I am going to say this every comment.
Stop sending the US oil. Stop sending natural gas. Stop sending electricity. Stop sending steel and aluminum. Stop sending them rare earths. Stop sending them wood. Do it immediately. Do it now.
We will see who needs who.
Yes, this would cause economic pain in Canada. So will not doing it.
Everything above is in demand all over the world.
Frankly, every other county should attend a summit next month where we ALL agree to stop sending the US anything and stop buying anything from the US.
If America wants to isolate themselves, I say let’s go!!
If you completely block all those things you practically guarantee they invade us for “national security”.
Not easy to find a new buyer overnight. The lost revenue would be devastating to the Canadian economy.
Selling things to the US is essentially the foundation of the Canadian economy.
How far off of “We have to liberate Americans in Canada from tyrannical French-Canadian rule” are we?
Trump next week: We need to invade Canada…they need help…they are forced to learn languages there, things they buy have a language on it nobody can learn… Its terrible
American speakers will be protected
Eat glass, Nazi.
The United States will happily supply all the weapons our oldest ally, Canada, needs for this battle of survival against the tyrannical forces of the United States. Will you be paying with cash, credit, layaway, or mineral rights to all your natural resources?
Replace “Canada” with Sudetenland, and it’s almost literally the same quote used by Hitler…
I’m not expecting Trudeau to respond to stupid shit like this but he’s been pretty silent this week. I’m hoping that means he has some trade deals to announce.
The good news about global tariff threats is that it would be really easy to find allies that would match responding tariffs made against our exports or diverting required resources away from that orange fuck.
Responding in a slow pace is a feature not a bug : the toddler in chief will get bored and might go get is dopamine with another target, while we redirect export elsewhere
That’s a really good perspective I hadn’t considered the attention span aspect.
Harper came out to say that worst case if he was in Trudeau’s position he would have just dealt with the bad economy for a few years until Trump gets replaced.
(Edit: my opinion from here) Introduce help measures like during COVID (some form of UBI) and regulations to prevent banks from seizing the property of those losing their job due to the tariffs and yeah we would end up with more debt as a country, but we would keep our sovereignty.
I’m sorry, Harper talked about UBI and banking regulations? The right honourable Stephen Harper? The one who had to be dragged, kicking and screaming by his own caucus, to respond to the 2008 crisis with anything other than austerity?
That Harper?
Wow.
Priorities. If there’s no longer a Canada, then he doesn’t get to style himself “the Right Honourable” anymore.
Nah, just the first part, the second part is the logical thing to do if we decide to just tough it up! I’ve made it clearer in my previous post.
If that stupid kid hadn’t flinched we wouldn’t be in the universe where Kirk and Spock go back and find a Nazi America.
It just occurred to me that all the major world powers want to absorb everything else around them because we’re actually just living in 1984 and this is the beginning of Oceania, Eurasia and Eastasia.
Canada has underfunded its military for decades. Now that we have a powerful neighbour talking about anexing us, we really should start funding it more.
Yup, lets negotiate with France and Britain to let us have 5 of their nukes while we build up up our army and seek deeper integration with the future European army.
Fucking eh!
Much like Putin to Ukraine.
Don’t call it a Trade War, it’s a Stupid Economic Operation.
