@Crypt0ka@MrNobodyBeyond@josh_wingrove The US lets more drugs into Canada than the other way around. The US is literally cutting deals with their (and our) adversaries right now. If you honestly think Canada is this bad guy here, I will just wish you well and say good day.
@Crypt0ka@MrNobodyBeyond@josh_wingrove If by every country worldwide you mean the 20 or so deals, ok. They will not boycott Can oil, it is 60% of their oil imports. My initial comment was re: favouring Russian allies vs their own allies. Says more about POTUS than Canada.
@MrNobodyBeyond@Crypt0ka@josh_wingrove 4) we are indeed boycotting US goods to send a message to the administration that our sovereignty is not up for discussion and should not be “joked” about. 5) Did not happen, easily proveable lie.
@MrNobodyBeyond@Crypt0ka@josh_wingrove Oh geez. 1) more illegal drugs are sent to Canada from the US vs the other way around, by orders of magnitude more. 2) I have no idea what you are trying to say re: Pakistan. 3) we unfortunately have to diversify trade as our largest trading partner has proved unreliable. 1/2
@VVader7@MarkJCarney No foreign diplomats are invited to the memorial service on 9/11. Poilievre paid his respects at the museum on the 10th. Let’s just remember this day and not bring politics into it, even if just for today.
@Cookieookie815@RandalRauser@BuffaloBills@barenakedladies@NFLonPrime Your friends had a deal with you. You both liked the deal in it’s totally. Your leader called it “the fairest, most balanced trade deal” was he wrong then, or now? Then… threatening sovereignty as part of “negotiating”. The whole world knows who the bad guy is here.
@JonniM@Sweeegu@MaritStiles Fair point,big box stores really hurt local businesses. Just FYI: Staples Canada is actually owned by Sycamore Partners, a US private equity firm that also owns Staples US & RONA (and Walgreens) To their credit, they seem to do good community work here.
@GhostMachima@WhiteHouse That’s unkind. That also was not the Toronto Star (or Toronto) saying that. It was The Star highlighting the awfulness that came out during that time and including quotes scoured online. Not too different to you posting it tbh.
@JonniM@Sweeegu@MaritStiles To create “more Canadian” jobs, sure. It’s not like I am saying don’t buy them, just buy them from a place where more of the money stays in Canada.
@AlesandraCanada@GhostMachima@WhiteHouse Well at least you admit it, I still like to think most Canadians are good people who care for each other, even when we disagree. And I say that as someone who has lived in the prairies.
@atrupar Great fundraisers don’t need to tell their supporters to register to receive a non existent tariff cheque and instead be taken to a donation page.
@JonniM@Sweeegu@MaritStiles https://t.co/NsUbmhfXgm now I will admit it would have to be purely online only (other than Ottawa) but again, we have choices here and we should not let the status quo dictate those choices.
@GhostMachima@WhiteHouse I can’t believe you’re Canadian. Canadians are good people who don’t take pleasure when other Canadians, especially friends and family “lose their minds”. https://t.co/PUfmE7yDhf
@Sweeegu@JonniM@MaritStiles Yeah, agreed on some points but moving off of Staples to a purely Canadian supplier (though is there any left?) for this net new spend surely makes more sense overall?
