The United States economy isn’t as tough as Donald Trump thinks

[TSIPP]

No we don’t have Trump we have Trudeau and Carney and no spring election.

It really doesn’t matter if a Canadian was hoping that Trump won the election, I just couldn’t imagine Kamala winning, funny thing is Trump won the last three American elections.

Multibillion style bailout?
Wouldn’t it be cheaper just to fix the border and stop fentanyl from crossing and wouldn’t that be better for everyone?

Reminds me of the government solution to climate change.

Spend countless billions on completely ineffective green scams, rather than make you very small investment in adapting to beneficial weather improvement. Which will have to be done regardless.

Foolish to believe simply addressing Trumps demands will end potential tariffs. It is a ruse cause Trump hates our current government. Kinda like Putin shutting the gas off to Ukraine. Maybe this is the kick in the ass we need to get rid of interprovincial trade barriers and get our act together to build better infrastructure to get goods to tidewater. Heard rumblings Canada is going to scrap the f35 program.

If you want to start counting here's what we have been sending to all those weird and woke foreign aid programs you occasionally see announced on Friday afternoon when Trudeau is on a world tour.

Our childish despot and his cronies don’t think rationally. If your neighbour tells you that he doesn’t want your dog coming over and killing his chickens, what would you do? A rational human would think for a minute and say, “certainly, I’ll do everything I can to keep my dog at home.” ( Crazy knee-jerk reactions instead of negotiation and changes to one’s behaviour.) We’ll all pay the price.

And Canada suffers no ill affects coming from the US? Right?!?!?!
Guns, cigarettes, illegals crossing, drugs....
It's not a one way street.

They're gaslighting and blaming and bullying Canada.

Every country could use a house cleaning and clean up their act. Hypocrites.
What about the 1000's of kms of their own shoreline that isn't a border with another country. What sneaks into the country in all the containers that get offloaded into American ports.

Don't let the US make you think Canada and Mexico are the only leaky points into their country.

So true Farma, not to mention the ballsiness on your part to crossover to the other side of the fence, while abandoning those firmly planted, or just ride it continually.

The thread has stalled, and the likes remain in the holsters.

Good job Teflon!

Actually, it appears the entire forum has stalled.

The ringleader of this circus took a couple of days off, and as usual, posts dropped to almost zero.

Almost as if we are all just here for the entertainment the chief clown provides.

I'm not blindly dedicated to any one.
I'm just calling out what I see as "road apples"!
And it's just my opinion.
I'm not here to suppress debate or opposing opinions.

I can't write on this forum what I say and write to other forum members in private, I'd be banned.

Some people's blind dedication reminds me of Stockholm Syndrome.
Oh yeah, and I'd classify myself as more of a Conservative/Republican than a Liberal/Democrat. But either EXTREME is dangerous!
