Is there a problem using an email alias to sign up? I applied more than a week ago. I recognize it’s a lot of work but I was wondering if I had been accidentally been binned as a bot.
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.
He’s had 20 years in politics to to come up with at least one good idea and he just hasn’t. He’s a career critic. That has served him well as the opposition but you can’t lead when your only play is to blame somebody else.
I agree. If the fine for not meeting the standard continues to increase every year eventually it will be too big to write off as a cost of doing business.
I hate that I have a for-profit corporation for a utility.
From a customer’s perspective it’s been frustrating and atrocious. But before the new fine structure was introduced they were allowed to do whatever the UARB would rubber stamp. Now at least there’s a penalty to sucking.
Ever-increasing fines for poor performance might finally be showing an effect. I’m not a Houston super fan but I do approve of his rhetoric of holding Emera responsible for its poor planning and lack of preventative maintenance.
Decrease potash exports by 5% every week tariffs are in place. We’d have them where we want them within 6 weeks.
I would say enacting immediate 100% cut offs to the food supply make us out to be the bad guys. But with a consistent measured response we would get results without making an enemy of most everyday American people.
It appears the sarcasm in my czar lament wasn’t apparent.
Without sarcasm, I do think Trump is making a game or a joke out of threatening our sovereignty because of his size and military advantage.
His miscalculation is that he isn’t an emperor… yet. Economic consequences to tariffs on Americans will eventually become unpopular enough that republican reps and senators will collectively twist his arm to back down by taking away their rubber stamping. The rumblings are already happening.
Canadian reporting in-only partially true. I have next to no respect for America the institution but I care about individual Americans just as much as my neighbors down the street.
We play your national anthem when you visit because it costs nothing to make you feel welcome while you visit us.
Trump being an asshole doesn’t mean we have to change our values. Kindness and mutual respect shouldn’t be transactional.
You may not have chose this but too many around you did. I believe if you’re not okay with what’s happening you have a responsibility to make noise and tell those around you that nonsense like this has to stop.
The scores of “don’t blame me / don’t blame all of us” comments ring hollow.
If Americans want to convince Canadians that they don’t want what the person elected to represent them wants then I expect to see “support Canada” rallies in every democrat-leaning city across the country.
Even if it did absolutely nothing to solve the problem it would at least fill me with a hope that a few people actually give a damn.
I think a friendly “how to get started” community would be better than the big peepee energy of WSB.

That’s a really good perspective I hadn’t considered the attention span aspect.
I understood that reference! Bonus points for Canadian content.

It’s Tokyo Drift time, Canada.
You can’t motivate a country who historically ignores international law by saying they’re doing illegal stuff.
Every new press photo makes him look more and more like a 60s Batman villain. Louie the Lilac vibes.

I think border security is probably a good idea but not for the same reasons.
But we made a CZAR! A CZAAAAR~!
This is why you don’t give bullies an inch. EU trade deals can’t come quick enough.

I don’t like the CEO comments but that’s a huge stretch of an assertion.
