Search our "milk tariffs"?

You don't even know what Supply management is.

It's to protect Canadian farmers from giant us Agra conglomerates.

We care for our farmers and we arent going to let the US destroy them.

Our dairy tariffs are there for a reason and they never affected your economy..... ever.

You better do some research and come back with some real information instead of just spewing stuff you think you know.

Until then don't post here.

Trump is so short sighted and stupid.

His Gordie Howe Bridge mafia squeeze won approx. $CAD 700 million extra from Canada.

That's the equiv of just 1 major factory investment in the US.

But in doing so he has scared off lots of investors from doing business with the US.

[Patrick Gagnon 🍁 @patgagnon_75]

Dear Canada,
Continuing to boycott American products is more important now than ever. I'm sorry, my American friends, but until all the tariffs are removed, the boycott will continue. You don't impose tariffs on a trusted friend, then call them an ally.

You know, I wasn't going to snark on this, but you need an education.

Please, let's review who signed Canada up to spend $6.4 billion on the Gordie Howe International Bridge without any guarantee of when, or even if, we'd recover the investment.

It wasn't Mark Carney.

The agreement was negotiated and signed under Stephen Harper's Conservative government. Canada agreed to finance construction because the Michigan Legislature refused to appropriate the money. In exchange, Canada receives the toll revenue until its costs are recovered.

That wasn't being "taken to the cleaners." It was the only way to break the decades-long monopoly of the privately owned Ambassador Bridge, which handled roughly a quarter of all Canada–U.S. trade and had become a strategic bottleneck.

Today, Canada has a modern publicly owned international crossing that strengthens supply chains, improves border resilience, creates economic growth on both sides of the border, and generates toll revenue over time.

If you're going to criticize the deal, at least criticize the government that made it. Conservatives negotiated it. Conservatives signed it. Conservatives defended it.

Facts matter more than campaign sound bites.

BTW Pierre, this is why you lost the election. This is why you'll continue to lose.

Mitch McConnell is dead, and this Proof of Life photo was a rushed rough draft. The newspaper is AI and doesn't exist. He's wearing jeans in a hospital bed. His hand is operating a computer mouse.

Elaine Chao had escaped to China, but now she's back and she's implicated in the cover up.

These are giant piles of crimes for everyone involved, which now includes Vance and Chao. I love this for them.

None of this detective work is mine.

He died in June.

Who would have guessed that McConnell and the Republicans would be lying?

Photo 1 (widely shared 2023 version): Mitch McConnell and Elaine Chao in a recovery/rehab setting. McConnell wears the red gingham shirt, smiles broadly while holding printed material, seated in the blue chair with white linens behind

Photo 2 (the version associated with the July 12, 2026 update): Appears identical to Photo 1 in every visible detail — same clothing, exact same pose and expressions, same background, same blue chair, same item in McConnell’s hand, same lighting and composition.

Side-by-side observation: These are the same photograph (originally from April 2023). No meaningful differences exist in subject positioning, clothing, facial expressions, background elements, or any other visual detail. Minor variations in cropping, resolution, or on-screen overlays (e.g., news logos or borders in different articles) may appear depending on the source, but the core image content is unchanged.

This confirms the image being referenced in recent discussions is the older one being recirculated. If you have different specific versions/URLs in mind, share them for further comparison!

Someone has some splaining to do!

Damn. That was quick. It’s almost like they knew it was coming. 🤔

Iran releases a LEGO-inspired movie of Lindsey Graham’s sudden illness and death.

[Greg Gies @gies_greg]

This demonstrates how pissed off Canadians are about Trump's tariffs. There will be no reorder until they come off.

[Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran]

It gives you a good idea of what McConnell should have looked like if the heart attack story was real and accurate.

Graham is covered in gear including an oxygen mask, and a device automating chest compressions, as multiple medics quickly moved him to the ambulance.

[Laura 🇨🇦🌻 @LJDYGK]

@Dixannadoc I second that motion. 😇

[Greg Gies @gies_greg]

I believe this is what Carney is working towards. First, Canada needs to establish markets to supply. Then productivity issues will need to be addressed. Canada dinally stands a chance companies will invest in increasing productivity,

"After America started randomly punching everyone in the face only two Canada and China openly tried to defend themselves. So that proves that Canada is bad and should start acting more like an ally."

What kind of fucking wife beater logic do American politicians have?

Fuck off

If you look for proper example of Russia‘s 3-day war in Ukraine, then this „training“ exercise in Russia perfectly encapsulates it.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

When I heard about Senator Graham’s death last night, the first thing I thought about was not all the things he said and did in service of Donald Trump. I thought of the time before Donald Trump when he was a brother to Senator John McCain.

A time when senators from different parties could fight about politics and still be friends. A time when a conservative Republican from South Carolina could say of my father: “If you can’t admire Joe Biden as a person, you’ve got a problem. He’s the nicest person I’ve ever met in politics. As good a man as God ever created.”

That is the Senator Graham I will remember today. Not because I have forgotten what came after. Because in that memory there is hope. Hope for a country where brothers can fight like hell over policy and still share a meal, and a laugh, and the loss of the people they love.

I will choose to remember the time before Trump. Because I believe in an America after Trump.

[Christopher Webb @cwebbonline]

The White House was never supposed to be a palace.

George Washington and architect James Hoban deliberately rejected the lavish style of European monarchies. Instead, they designed a President’s House that reflected the ideals of a republic: dignified, restrained, and accountable to the people.

The White House belongs to the American people. Every president is just a temporary tenant.
