    I just realized that McCain is a Canadian company. Sorry, I’ve been boycotting their fries and stuff for the past few months, but it was a mistake - damn you, John McCain!

    The McCains still have their list of problems, much like other large Corporations and billionaires, but they are Canadian.

      I’ll believe it when I see it - Carney doesn’t seem to actually have done anything so far.

      Carney is very bad at communicating and informing Canadians. He likes to keep everything private until there are results to publish. It keeps me worried that he’s accomplishing nothing and my confidence in his abilities is very low considering how he’s folded all the hands we actually held.

        LOL Yeah Right Carney you start first. When you move 94% of your investments back to Canada from the United States, Stop Gas-Lighting Canadians on the trade deals. Green light #NorthernGetaway and remove all restrictions affecting its production. Then I will start relying more on Canadian business

        He does not know what his investments are in and has no access to them, they are in a blind trust.

            Always assess Mark’s results against Polyestre’s predicted path: subjugation and the 51st state.

              Did you actually read the agreement? It leaves Canada in $600M trade deficit. Media loves to skip the details.

              Are you going to demand that you get out of the trade deficit you have with your grocer of choice?

              Why not? Are you to afraid that capitalism would then be replaced with communism? It is important that you understand what Trump is talking about before you echo him.

                  We need to increase our non-US exports because the US is our enemy. Not because they are limiting it.

                                  Definition of a Blind Trust A blind trust is a legal arrangement where the trustor (the person who creates the trust) transfers control of their assets to a trustee (the person managing the trust) without retaining knowledge of how those assets are managed. This setup is designed to prevent conflicts of interest, particularly for individuals in sensitive positions, such as politicians or corporate executives.

                                  How a Blind Trust Works Key Roles Trustor: The individual who establishes the trust and places assets into it. Trustee: An independent party who manages the trust assets without input from the trustor. Beneficiary: The person or entity that benefits from the trust, often the trustor themselves. Asset Management Once the trust is established, the trustee has full discretion over the assets. The trustor does not know what investments are held or how they are managed. This separation helps ensure that the trustor’s decisions in their professional role remain unbiased.

                                    This is major progress.

                                    But to get US to beg for economic ties with Canada, we must break military/geopolitical sycophancy ties. Charge a high price for NORAD, Helping the US in a pretenseless war on Venezuela should have a publicly high $ figure as compensation for our evil. Pure evil in Latin America and elsewhere, is something we’ve officially always supported. Iraq the only exception. Supporting pretenseless wars and coups in Latin America is supporting the same (lack of) principled war on Canada, including fentanyl pretenses.

                                    His speech is promising, but to open Canadian trade, we need to stop pretending that the US controlled world is the free world. While our Ukrainian diaspora has a one sided political criteria, even if they are descendants of nazi war criminals fleeing prosecution for their war crimes, siding with geopolitical lies just gets their country destroyed to the last Ukrainian, and peace with Russia is far more important to defense against the US.

                                    This is a return to the election night speech. The journey has been extremely ugly and unproductive. This is a commitment to saving Canada, but it has to be followed through aggressively with certainty, no matter how polite/diplomatic the language has to remain towards the US.

                                      Sure, just announce we are doubling exports. Anyone else noticing how Carney says stuff without any real detail on how he plans to do it? The CDN government has thousands of people for decades trying to increase exports abroad. We have little manufacturing left to export, so we’re turned into a mining based economy.

                                      I’m pretty tired of politicians selling old ideas as new. We need some innovation.

                                      This is a fair criticism. Canada needs investment. Path to actual export growth is investment from countries who would want to import from Canada, or investment that allows Canadians to invest to refine/value add to other investments. For an export strategy to work, we need to stop being on the wrong side of geopolitical hate, and be welcoming of investments from the part of the world that is growing, and can grow if free of US extortion.

                                        I know exactly what it is and how it works. Go watch the Committee meetings that have been going on about Carney’s Conflict of Interests all ~104 of them. Remember during the election when he was asked about his conflicts and he said “What possible conflicts?” LOL https://youtube.com/shorts/P8uH7_gef4A
