China is walking this dumbass like a dog. How about we don’t tie ourselves to this sinking ship.

If you feel like money is tight, fix this:

Tax cuts are the wrong angle of attack.

That’s certainly who Goebbels wannabe is referring to.

Experiencing the outcomes of their policy positions. That’s the thing about having bad ideas. Even when you win, you lose.

You can pause the tariffs but you can’t pause the uncertainty you’ve introduced into the system, Don.

Well you sure aren’t so it really seems like you’re looking for a saviour. Go save yourself.

“Waaah, a country with 1/10th our population isn’t fixing our problems for us! That makes THEM the little bitches!” -A Very Serious Person

What makes us brothers and sisters? I’ve never cared for the USA. You’re a net negative on the world and that’s been true through both Democratic and Republican administrations. I know you guys like to huff your own propaganda but frankly your country deserves the ruin it’s bringing on itself.

Funny, your mad king sure seems fascinated by us. But don’t worry, I understand that your word is worthless so I won’t hold you to your promise.

This person won’t win her race and the Conservatives are looking pretty unlikely to form government so I guess maga will just stick to ruining your country.

They loved the polls two months ago.

Canada’s 2004 federal election. I voted NDP.

Gamers using their powers of cyberbullying for good.

The governor of a national bank is simply not a politician… They are appointed by a politician, yes. But they aren’t voted in

Do politicians only exist in democratic states, then? A governor of a national bank is absolutely making political decisions. They are a politician.

And to say that economics isn’t a science

What I said was, economics isn’t a science like physics is a science. It is a social science. Economists like to develop very complicated mathematical models to mask that fact, but the foundations those models are based on aren’t natural laws like a physicist might work with. They are based on ideological assumptions.

Gotta lay off the fent and brocasts

Uh huh.

And what I’m saying is that the governor is a politician. Economics isn’t a science like physics is a science. Their decisions are going to be coloured by their ideology.

Governor of a national bank is absolutely not apolitical. Stephen Harper or the British Conservatives weren’t going to appoint a Marxian economist to the position no matter what kind of resume they might have. Their appointees are going to be politically copacetic.

Canada doesn’t need nuclear weapons, does Iraq ring a bell to you how the USA straight up invaded and killed hundreds of thousands of innocent people because of “rumors” of WMDs? And the weakest Intel? That kind of talk can gtfo

The lesson of Iraq is not develop no nukes or the USA might invade you. The lesson of Iraq is that even if you definitely don’t have any WMDs the US might lie about it anyways and justify invading you with the lie.

I don’t really agree with this. While technically true, the reality of our system is that almost all votes are whipped so your local representative is going to be rubber stamping a party line 99% of the time. What’s more, in my opinion that’s a good thing. I live in a small town with a depressing local news situation and finding out what candidates in municipal elections even stand for can be a PITA. Much better to be able to look at a party platform and know that should the rep I want win they will be going along with that platform. Individual personalities are less important than policy positions, anyways.

The target has already been moved from 2% of GDP to 5%. With the expectation that most of that money would be spent on procurement from the US. If we accept the shakedown, why wouldn’t it happen again?
