@supervdataspace@JadeCole2112@Smileyyeg Why would the US be the least interested in French culture? Unless huge dairy conglomerates in Québec constitute culture.
To paraphrase a current Québec politician, “I’m not sure that dairy constitutes a culture.”
@donwinslow The US is up in arms about protection of French Canadian culture? That really doesn’t make a lick of sense.
The US is up in arms about online streaming/ fora legislation, and that is really about controlling what people say and see online.
See? It’s a Russian doll!
@Smileyyeg I guess you can hope, although I thought hope wasn’t a strategy…
The real regicidal thing coming down the pike is the coming bond market crash. Really much more important than alcohol on shelves and its putative symbolism.
@alleria_eh Smith is the only adult in the room. Carney is lying by omission. And we don’t really know all the details, certainly not enough details to join in on the elbows-up circle jerk.
@alleria_eh The negotiations failed because of digital protectionism, specifically the Online Streaming Act; demands for stricter tracing of transshipped Chinese steel in vehicles; and US demands that Canada limit trade partnerships with China, all valid concerns for Canadians as well.
@alleria_eh And how would she demonstrate she’s “pro-Canada”? By being on the side of the things you listed?
She was advocating for Alberta AND Canada in Mar-a-Lago. How was she “selling out Alberta” by selling O&G? By boycotting a tiny slice of our trade?
@RichardKnack The negotiations failed because of digital protectionism, specifically the Online Streaming Act; demands for stricter tracing of transshipped Chinese steel in vehicles; and US demands that Canada limit trade partnerships with China, all valid concerns for Canadians as well.
@RichardKnack How does one “support” Carney? By not thinking critically?
His explanations for why the talks failed smell a bit off, don’t you think? At the very least, they’re somewhat lacking in clarity.
@KirkLubimov Nope. The negotiations failed because of digital protectionism, specifically the Online Streaming Act; demands for stricter tracing of transshipped Chinese steel in vehicles; and US demands that Canada limit trade partnerships with China, all valid concerns for Canadians as well.
