@grok@berdyn My point is that the United States is not going to just absorb Canada. It's a ridiculous delusion. The world doesn't work like that, except in Trumpland.
@CheriDiNovo Clearly you don't know the history of Canadian Conservative politics. Once we were reduced to 2 or 3 seats. This is not a concern. We always fight back. I stand by Poilievre 100%.
@10milesTillE@eeners@mazemoore Same here. Lost my dad, my brother in law had severe blood clots, a niece had a terrible auto immune reaction that near killed her. I lost friends and I still can't talk to many people I love. A very sad chapter in humanity.
What is IMEC?
The India��Middle East–Europe Economic Corridor (IMEC) is a game-changing trade route announced at the 2023 G20 in Delhi.
How it works:
East Corridor: Ships sail from Indian ports (like Mundra) to UAE/Gulf ports.
North Corridor: High-speed rail + roads through Saudi Arabia, Jordan & Israel to Haifa port.
Then ships to Europe (Greece, Italy, France etc.).
Why it matters:
Up to 40% faster & cheaper than the Suez Canal route
More resilient supply chains
Includes clean energy pipelines, electricity grids & digital fiber cables
A strategic alternative to China’s Belt & Road
The 21st-century Silk Road is here!
“Above all, don’t lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love, and in order to occupy and distract himself without love he gives way to passions and coarse pleasures, and sinks to bestiality in his vices, all from continual lying to other men and to himself.”
Dalrymple was a great fan of Dostoyevsky. Both believed lying was the greatest danger to man.
“To assent to obvious lies is in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control.” - Dalrymple
