We’re more than a nation known for maple syrup and neighbourly friendliness. We’re compassionate: A relatively small town in Gander, Newfoundland, fed, housed, and emotionally supported Americans during the 911 crisis. The “Canadian Caper” was another time we aided the U.S. (there’s a movie about that). We have supported the United States for years in bogus wars at the expense of our young Canadian people. And now, the U.S. blasts us with tariffs? Thank you, Mark Carney, for saying enough is enough!

I’d be down with that. Would you be willing to gasp socialize and allow universal healthcare??

Albertan? FOX News viewer? Illiterate?

As a Canadian, I completely understand that. And I 100% sympathize with the American population that does not support him. However, in a country where a “leader” who is “democratically” elected becomes the figurehead of that country, it becomes very difficult to separate “him” from the American population. In the world’s eyes, “him” is the U.S.A. So, when we see “him” wanting to make Canada the 51st state, “him” thinking he is entitled to Greenland, “him” trying to cripple Cuba, “him” deciding Americans should be in charge of the Strait of Hormuz, it’s kinda’ hard to look at the US and say, “yah, but that’s not the American people, that’s just “him”… Unfortunately for you, He IS the American people. You have my sympathies.

Trump doesn’t care if it hurts Americans. Trump only cares about his whining whims being met. He’s at best a narcissist, and most probably a psychopath.

Agreed. However, at the time (15 years ago?), when I was told I needed to replace the timing belt, I got a second opinion and was told there was absolutely nothing wrong with the existing timing belt. I think the original mechanic was a bit dodgy :( I also truly believe he needlessly replaced my brake pads. But that’s another story. The timing belt was replaced in 2018 by my now amazing mechanic! Actually, I think he gets a kick out of me when I ask him if this or that needs to be checked. Invariably, everything is fine, he shakes his head, assures me, and sends me happily on my way 🥰

Know what? People used to be able to understand contracts. This is what’s happening. People are so dumbed down, they don’t even know what they’re signing. Welcome to the USA , and soon to be Alberta, Canada

Did you not read the contract?

And Greta Thunberg was ridiculed….

I’m driving a 1999 RAV4. I do regular oil changes. I replaced the brake pads years ago, but I think I got conned. That mechanic also told me my timing belt needed to be replaced. It did not. This vehicle is incredible. It’s a little freaking tank. My pride and joy…

Actually, we’re not nasty. We just aren’t going to back down to a pedophile. And I don’t care what deal is reached, I’m still going to avoid anything American.

But there is no global warming, right? And Greta Thunberg is full of shit, right?

74% were not likely? 69% somewhat not likely? 5% to buy American??? Not high enough!! I still refuse to buy American produce in grocery stores. This is NOT high enough. So, it’s all good now??

All true. But also, many books being banned are books that simply make people “think”. Conservatives don’t want people that “think”.

With Danielle Smith’s record of cozying up to the USA, I can’t believe this referendum has gone forward. Seriously? Please get off FOX NEWS, and read what’s going on in the USA.

While I agree with you, it’s still a moot point as far as I’m concerned. “Indians” are from “India”. It’s long past the time that anyone should be calling Indigenous people “Indians”. Either Findlay is being purposely disrespectful, or completely ignorant.

Because, not profitable for oligarchs.

Are you serious??? Our planet is on fire, dear. WATER IS AN ISSUE!!

Wikipedia doesn’t have a lot of info. Chatgpt rundown: A single large AI data center can use millions of litres of water per day for cooling during hot weather. Some facilities use little or no water if they rely primarily on air cooling instead. Training a large AI model may indirectly consume millions of litres of water over the course of training. This includes water used directly for cooling servers and indirectly at power plants that generate the electricity used. There’s more, but also: Electricity generation: In many regions, power plants also use water for cooling, so electricity consumption can add to water use indirectly. THIS IS ONE OF THE REASONS WHY TRUMP WANTS CANADA: No 4 of most water in the world. AND WHY TRUMP BACKED JAIR BOLSONARO, THE FASCIST PRESIDENT OF BRAZIL: No 1 most water in the world. Also, Jair Bolsonaro, the former president of Brazil, was sentenced to 27 years in prison for his involvement in a coup attempt that sought to undermine Brazil’s democratic institutions. VIVA Brazil!!!

To the people of Spain and France: My heart goes out to you. As a British Columbian, we, too, are struggling with the same fire battles and devastation. Added to our fire challenges, is a “neighbour” that is threatening us at every turn, including: “threatening new tariffs over wildfire smoke drifting south of the border.”
