The President of the United States posted this message on his account. He wants the Vietnamese to buy SUVs in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 day ago (4 children)

It's funny. 20 to 40 tax on Americans and none on the Vietnamese and he thinks that people who make an average of USD$8,000 per year are going to buy $100,000 US SUVs. He's a delusional idiot.

‘We will definitely surpass the minimum’: [Former Deputy Premier of Alberta] Lukaszuk confident anti-separatist petition can gather needed signatures in c/[email protected]

It's hysterical. He's going to put a, "Should we stay in Canada" question to the people and get an overwhelming, "Yes", as the answer putting the separatist whinging to bed once and for all. How humiliating for them.

This is all Joe Biden's fault for quitting and letting Kamala Harris run and lose the election to me knowing that I would gut FEMA! - Trump

So American will pay between 20 and 40% tax on goods coming from Vietnam but the Vietnamese can buy US goods with no tax?

Cool.

Do Americans know this?

Pressure mounting on Poilievre to fire Jenni Byrne: sources (www.cbc.ca)
 

This is nonsense. The Conservatives need to stick with Jenni Byrne and triple down on the angry jingoism and Trump style grievance politics that Canadians love so much. More attacks and DEI and the woke week definitely fake the difference. If only they could Conservative harder they could definitely win more of us over.

Canada is broken!

Woke woke woke! DEI DEI DEI!

I will fix everything but can't tell you how!

I am not Justin Trudeau!

Conrad Black: And just like that, the Trump 'threat' disappears (nationalpost.com)
 

The real threat was the combination of Trump and a simpering sycophant Trump wannabe as prime minister.

The threat is reduced with Carney.

Poilievre to release platform Tuesday with details on new spending and cuts (www.cbc.ca)
 

Tax cuts for the rich and benefits cuts for the poor to pay for it. $100 billion of additional national debt over four years of planned deficits.

That definitely sounds like a Conservative agenda.

'I don't blame you': U.S. tourism hot spots mourn Canadian travel cancellations (www.cbc.ca)
 

"I know why, and it's because my president is threatening to annex your country."

It's far more than that. The Trump administration is lawless, ignoring and defying the courts, and trampling on the constitution. My son's school just cancelled a long planned trip to New York City because of the very real risk that one of more of the children in the trip might be held, handcuffed, and thrown in ICE detention for days or weeks. Under the current authoritarian regime it is unsafe for anyone to travel to the US.

Oh, we're going to do this again? We're going to try to pass the same unconditional laws that Stephen Harper tried to pass then spent years and tens of millions of dollars defending all the way to the Supreme Court only to lose because everyone, including Harper, knew from the very beginning that they were unconstitutional?

Just fucking great. Can we not? Can you just roll your neo-fascist lack-of-virtue signalling into a cylinder and shove it up your fucking at instead?

"I'm not Justin Trudeau!" - Pierre Polievre

"Neither am I" - Mark Carney

The 25% of Canadians that are thinking challenged won't win you an election when there's is a functioning adult running.

"I'm just like Trump" won't either.

Poilievre launches his campaign promising to be "respectful and firm" against Trump (nationalpost.com)

They changed the headline on this article. It originally read, "Polievre launches campaign with a pitch to heal, 'a divided country'" which made me laugh because he's spent so much time whipping up the white grievance that carried Trump to power in the US and trying desperately to ride the same wave of populist bullshit with the same message as Trump. When he's railing about the, "woke" and "political correctness" that suggests that we can expect an all out assault of LGBTQ+ rights, brown people, books, and anything else they don't like.
