Canola Rebound

Maybe they are a trusted trade partner.

China is leaping ahead of the rest of the world in technology and is poised to be the next power.

There is a huge reason why China has leapt ahead of the rest of the world in tech
Like it or not they focus actually on education not social justice in post secondary.

Teddy Roosevelt?

Speak softly and carry a big stick.

That’s the fallacy of Trump now , speaks way too loud and his stick is much smaller than he believes.
These actions needed to be taken place , but with much less theatrical b/s .
Musk needed to cut fat , he was the only one with the ability to do so , but being completely socially inept, he should have just stayed way behind the curtain.
The U.S. desperately needed to curtail the 36 trillion debt , but those two just made a circus out of it and have gone too far no doubt
The principal reason had to be addressed but they just threw the whole Jerry can on the fire not just added a bit of gas .
Will be the most interesting time in several decades , for sure a lot to take in right now from all sides .

End of the day , as Canadians, we need to be very concerned about our own state of affairs with the upcoming election, Trumps tariffs or not . We as western Canadians can not take another 4 years of liberal government. Carney was Trudeau’s puppet master, and that will not change .

Even though canola wasn't tarriffed it's feeling the affects of soybeans drop.
Thanks Captain Chaos. Who could be so delusional to think Trump's policies aren't largely to blame for the turmoil. China too!

Strap on.
Re cartoon: either way, both are applying and neither will be comfortable.

China once again is the world greatest trade bully. They enjoy a trade surplus almost everywhere but still get away with trade protectionism on the import side. Where is the outrage against that? Canola and soybeans already have an import tariff into china but soy enjoyed a lower rate than canola up to now. 3% vs 9%

Way too much manufacturing was pushed to China. Are they not going take it? Everyone wants cheap... now deal with it.

[ajl]

China enticed the manufacturing to come to it by currency devaluation and domestic market access in exchange for technology transfer. North American oligarchs were only too happy to oblige. President Trump is seeking to reverse that. I can't understand the mentality of US tariffs bad, china tariffs good. However that is where we are at. Anyways I have placed an order for the S & P, and am waiting for it to be filled.

Yes the “outsourcing” of manufacturing for corporate profits and making North America less productive has resulted in massive debt in the U.S. and Canada .
Governments printing money to support the economy lead to high inflation and a less productive workforce that is not wealth creating .
Result is radical changes to try to turn the tide . The status quo is completely unsustainable
the pendulum swung way too far one way and Trump trying to swing it too far the other way
The middle class will take the brunt of the punishment as usual

Several stress pill prescriptions.
