@MarketManiaCa It’s called a rate cycle - have you heard of it? Our rates have been low for a while and the U.S. has started an inflationary war so here they are
Bombardier made almost 20% of the private jets which went into the U.S. in fiscal year 2025 and they make jets which an American company simply can’t recreate quickly. They are the #1 enemy of the U.S. for a militarily independent Canada.
Today’s announcement of a ban on Bombardier planes being sold in America is a (very dumb) calculated move to force Canada towards American military platforms. Saabs CEO was in Ottawa this week to talk about this with the Federal Government and Bombardier.
@SinnettCam87346@Arturmaks They said they want to invest that money in gold and equities because they don’t think bonds are good idea anymore due to “heightened geopolitical uncertainty” which is largely caused by a U.S. government who can’t decide who they like and who they don’t

Clearly he hasn’t found out what’s going on at the Ukrainian frontline. In a year when NATO gets its anti drone systems up the last of Russia’s advantages will be gone.
Now I won’t comment on the “NATO should stand up for the Falklands” comment because it doesn’t hav to under article 5, but I will comment on the defence spending.
1/5
The UK plays a large role in the defence of Europe against Russian aggression and has the second biggest level of defence spending among NATO members in Europe.
It is time for Britain’s NATO allies to step up and back British sovereignty over The Falklands in the face of Argentine threats.
Poland, Germany, France, Italy, The Netherlands, Hungary, The Baltic States should all be standing shoulder to shoulder with the UK and stating unequivocally that any attack on British sovereign territory is an attack on the NATO alliance.
@CompassDrifter France has one, there are 13 nuclear aircraft carriers in the world. The 11 in the US fleet, the JFK in sea trials and the French Charles de Gaulle.
