Trump's accomplishments so far

[sumdumguy]

Today Trump’s government welcomed 59 Afrikaner’s as immigrants. New laws in S. Africa allow the government to take land away from White farmers and redistribute the land to black farmers. White are only a 20% minority in S. Africa.

Here's your chance, it's giving it all back

Talking you out of buying Tesla?

Just the opposite according to what I replied to you back on March 31/2025.

Don't be like others who locked their bins when Canola hit $25.00/bu, while holding out and wagering the farm for $53.00/bu. Unless your farm is subsidized by oil and government programs.

The rest of us have to pull the trigger when we feel its time.

Yeah Trump doesn't mind refugees if they are white, christian and rightwing.

Brown skinned and other religions not so much!

White afrikaners are still the richest segment of South Africa's population and own most of the land. But Trump and the far right have conveniently forgotten about the decades of apartheid and oppression of blacks.

"In 1913, a Native Land Act gave most farmland to whites, mostly Afrikaners of Dutch descent, leaving just 13% to Blacks. Then in 1950 the Afrikaner National Party passed a law removing 3.5 million Black people from their ancestral lands."

What you are talking about is oppression of parts of the population.
Do you have to be financially poor to be oppressed or just a minority?
Could you describe western Canada as an oppressed population?

Carney dropped all tariffs before the election.
MSN didn't report it?

and the liberal voters got duped again , oh the wonderful economist that cant even put together a budget was the best to stand up to Trump his buddy

Well shite for brains Alberta doesn't even come close to the definitions of oppression you posted above.

Claiming oppression because you didn't win a free and fair federal election doesn't qualify.

And 28% of Albertans voted for the Liberals.

I don't know why some Albertan's think they are oppressed when they have a higher GDP per capita and higher salaries than other provinces?

That's not an indicator of oppression in power balances and marginalization.

Its just politics fanned by leaders who don't want to deal with their own provincial issues!

Moe and Smith both have done a bad job on health care and education two of the biggest budget items and responsibilities they have. Why don't they fix their own problems? They have more than enough fiscal room to find the revenues if they choose to do so. But instead they think low royalty rates and low taxes are more important.

Both leaders waste a lot of time complaining about the federal government instead of finding pragmatic compromises.

.

They found the revenues they need to fix their own problems. They are in quebec.

How do you propose they get those revenues back to put them to work in our provinces instead?

[chuckChuck]

There is no transfer of Alberta revenues to Quebec!

Equalization is paid for by federal taxes. It is a federal program.

And Albertans and Quebecers pay exactly the same federal tax rates.

Where do federal taxes come from? The Easter bunny?
