    Canada should increase it in response. Then drop the mic.

      I think it’s appropriate to note here that during his first term, Trump tore up NAFTA and negotiated his own trade agreement with Canada and Mexico. Now, just a few years later, he’s torn that one up too. If I were a country considering negotiating a trade agreement with him, I’d keep in mind that any agreement struck could evaporate on his whim.

      The solution is to simply not “negotiate” with terrorists. Just make decisions that financially damage them and their cronies, while forming close relationships with non-terrorist states.

            As if these taxes never backfire back to the consumer. It’s like a national sport in Canada. Raise taxes, mask it with fancy words as if you’re taxing corporations then when push comes to shove, like what happened during covid, bail out the very same corporations instead of thousands of unemployed and unhoused.

                  Do you have a Canadian ancestor?

                  The 2023 Bjorkquist decision overturned the first generation limit to pass down citizenship. There is an Interim measure to accept applications for special grants of citizenship beyond one generation and there is a bill in Parliament to put in place a remedy to address the findings of the Superior Court of Ontario (which the federal government has not appealed).

                    Yes. This manufactures consent among us for harsher actions that would hurt us more in the short term.

                      Watch Vance and his techno fascist cronies take over after that. This may get worse before it gets better.

                          Oh shucks, it is to bad I have moved to the high C’s for most of my media. It is so much easier now then in the late 2000’s when I stopped because it was easier to pay for the US services. With the *arr apps I have found it is easier to do the pirating. I use a pi-hole to block the ads on the Canadian channels showing US shows. I cancelled all the subscriptions and started paying for CBC; sure I did not need to pay for it as my pihole was blocking the ads but I can now watch the news if I want to, not that I need it but hey I have once or twice! I have moved most of my data off of Apple’s iCloud, I have stopped using everything google (Including their ads), minus YouTube but even then I stopped paying for premium and started using the app Unwatched to block the ads, I wish there was a Canadian version of patron to give money to the few Canadian content creators I follow religiously (Steve Boots, and the Beaverton). I had started degoogle-ing in phases years ago, but Trump pushed me to stop paying for youtube premium and moving to Unwatched.

                          I moved my blog off of the Wordpress servers on to a Canadian host (I wanna say hosthero); I added the unlimited email package so that I can create pseudo random emails, to replace Apple’s hide my email, (Service name).(random word)(three random words)@reannlegge.ca. I wanted an off site password manager (just incase I broke something) so I pay for 1Password which is Canadian. I moved all of my data off of iCloud minus the backups for my iPhone and iPad because I do not have the hardware to do it at home at the moment to easily back it up at home.

                            If we could only pull that off without being preemptively “defended” against… I don’t think them fuckers would sit tight while we make a nuke. I think the only way we pull this off is if we could buy or “host” European nukes which must happen in total secrecy and extremely quickly from conception to deployment.

                                  I do. My mom‘s entire side of the family came down from Quebec. But that’s great grandparents back, and as far as I can tell, that’s too far back to count.

                                    Good luck. Great grandparents born in Canada can be enough. That would make your grandparents ok your mother’s side citizens. (There have been some retroactive corrections of women’s loss of citizenship in marriage.)

                                          As if these taxes never backfire back to the consumer. It’s like a national sport in Canada. Raise taxes, mask it with fancy words as if you’re taxing corporations then when push comes to shove, like what happened during covid, bail out the very same corporations instead of thousands of unemployed and unhoused.

                                          There’s no point raising prices, as if employees aren’t going to pass that on to their employers by demanding higher wages. Why do companies always try to increase their profits by raising prices?
