Trump is a madman. But we cannot control Trump? Two wrongs do not make a right. Politicians should do what is best for the working class. Imposing reciprocal tariffs will only put the costs on the consumer, the working class is collateral damage. Best option is to diversify to other markets. Let...

Exactly. And we know what happened to both of them, both did not last long and lost miserably.

If I were an American citizen, I would be voting for Jo Jorgensen, not because she is a woman but because she aligns with my political beliefs. I am for Libertarianism.

That is one of the reasons Trump won. And people seem to be okay with misandry? People should not be electing a president based on gender. It should be based on their platform and qualifications.

As predicted, Carney has been given the crown and is now the PM of Canada. An unelected official who is not even a MP. There are some important implications of this. Not all Canadians can elect him, about 0.375% of Canadians were able to elect him. I base this off about 150,000 people that can...

Trump is a madman, however initiating a counter trade war is counterproductive and at the end it is the consumer that will pay the higher prices. Government will just cash in. Honestly, I dunno what Trump's endgame is, he is a loose cannon. The guy lost it and I do not think he cares because he...

It is not a free market when subsidies are given. What you described is cronyism. This is an example of government meddling to protect certain industries just as the dairy supply management does. The end result is the same. Only a true free market would bring the best product at the best price...

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/ontario-electricity-tariffs-ford-trump-1.7479180 ^^^^ Trump is retaliating to Ford imposing tariffs on energy exports. Ford is an idiot. This is a battle Canada cannot win and the causality will be the consumer.

It is not for the state to decide who will buy what and to limit choice and to create a unfair market. Let the ppl decide with their wallet. If they want to support Canadian dairy then they can do so and pay the higher prices. It is like Amazones, ppl say to support unions but will they really...

Protectionism is bad for the customer because it limits competition and protects certain markets and sectors. The dairy cartel should be removed, it is designed to protect the dairy producers in Canada to keep the prices higher. The CRTC has the same mentality to keep competition out, the result...

Carney was Trudeau's economic advisor for 5 years, look at Trudeau's record under 9 years of Liberal policies, a housing crisis, record food bank usage, doubled down on debt. Carney is Trudeau 2.0 but on steroids. Carney is taking ideas from Poilievre's playbook like scrapping the carbon tax...

We got worse, Carney as PM and he is an unelected official.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/china-canada-tariffs-retaliatory-1.7478503 ^^^^^ It is interesting to note when Canada imposed tariffs in October on Chinese made electric cars and steel and aluminum products everyone was silent. In fact some were for it. Btw this will create higher prices for...
