@MsMorton1214 @TheArenaCNN @elliotcwilliams People don't understand the sheer size of the Boreal forest. Northern Ontario alone has over 250 thousand lakes. Thousands without even names let alone the huge areas of forests without roads or any type of human settlements near.

@MsMorton1214 @TheArenaCNN @elliotcwilliams Even if its not cycles and global warming is responsible for the dry conditions there is still nothing possible to do. The Boreal forests are massive beyond most people's comprehension. Isolated by lakes and wilderness where people have never set foot .

@RepLisaMcClain The Boreal forests of Northern Canada are meant to burn. The tree species there cones need fire to open them and release the seeds for regeneration. Even if it was possible to quickly put them out it would not be good for long term forest health. Staying inside is all to do.

@REDFMCALGARY What did they study there?

[Canadian Dutchman @HolzkenNick]

@Gabby_Hoffman Boreal forests fires are natural and happen in cycles, just part of the renewal cycle. Its not global warming or forest mismanagement. Anyone wasting time debating this issue is a retard.

@SenAdamSchiff On difficult times like this with the Trade War Canadians should support our own companies and businesses before subsidies to foreign countries. Keep that money in Canada when possible and help fellow Canadians first.

@Markcbqi @skstork88 @jetsgobangbang @Sportifffy @SenatorShaheen The USA has a massive trade surplus with Canada in dairy. If Trump ends the USMCA Canadian farmers will actually have a huge benefit.

[Canadian Dutchman @HolzkenNick]

@crumber_26 @micyoung75 The whole sky is falling without free trade is bs. Both Canada and the USA were wealthy nations before the 1989 free trade agreement. Sure some expensive changes to move supply chains around but definitely not the end of the world.

@Mcclainseanm @Terenceshen Canadian auto production is already half dead from 3 million vehicles a year in 1999 to 1.3 million. Its one of the worst welfare industries, time to let it go and have tariff free vehicles from anywhere imported .

[Canadian Dutchman @HolzkenNick]

@MarkJCarney Canada should be a tariff free country and copy Singapore. Low regulation and low taxes and an open market to all regardless the politics. Of China or the USA wants to invest here thats fine and if they don't thats also fine. We need to stop protecting our laggards and compete.

[Canadian Dutchman @HolzkenNick]

@PawlowskiMario @NikkiHaley Tesla was exporting lots of vehicles from China to Canada before Canada did the 100% tariffs. Tesla will now just resume their exports from the Shanghai factory to Canada.

[Canadian Dutchman @HolzkenNick]

@MPelletierCIO The USA dumped Canada and decided to go alone. Canada tried to align against China by also copying the US tariffs against China. Canada has no choice if the USA doesn't want our energy and products.

[Canadian Dutchman @HolzkenNick]

@UnmutedOp @TheJFreakinC It must be a Grey area legally. Maybe the USA should have laws made about verifying before arresting. Republicans are probably against those kinds of laws like in other western nations though.

[Canadian Dutchman @HolzkenNick]

@TheJFreakinC They should change the law so they need to verify who someone is before arrests are made. Also have the right to legal counsel etc like in other western countries.

[Canadian Dutchman @HolzkenNick]

@DemosKratosCA If a real offer like that came its probably a done deal 😂

[Canadian Dutchman @HolzkenNick]

@PeterSchiff Only the USA has the hundreds of billions needed to repair infrastructure in Venezuela and bring oil production back to where it used to be. If this works out the people of Venezuela will forever be grateful.

[Canadian Dutchman @HolzkenNick]

@mario4thenorth We definitely need a pipeline to the East coast so we can consume our own oil . Should have been built 40 years ago.

[Canadian Dutchman @HolzkenNick]

@KatieMiller Both our countries were just fine before free trade in the 80s and will still be just fine after the termination of the USMCA. Tariffs aren't as bad as the media makes them out to be .

[Canadian Dutchman @HolzkenNick]

@AlexAlvzSlz9 @Silver_Coal @PeterSchiff It will keep thousands of people employed and provide tax revenues in a severe inflationary environment so its still good.
