IMPORTANT: If you live in the United States or Canada, you’ve probably heard Trump‘s constant claim that the United States is “subsidizing” Canada. It’s wrong of course, but here’s the best explanation I’ve seen about how & why it’s wrong. PLEASE WATCH & SHARE IT A LOT. Kudos to Andrew Chang & CBC.

I was sick yesterday hearing DT rant about Canada.. but then he is gonna tariff the WORLD if they don't do as he says! HOLY SHIT! This has become nuts! And now we have Pierre P. parroting DT. Am I scared???? Out of my freaking mind!!!! I want to see Doug Ford take over Conservatives.

mdoreenbar.bsky.social•146 days ago

You're kidding about Doug Ford, right?

amaruq909.bsky.social•146 days ago

I may need to read up more eh? :) I want a strong leader! Might you suggest one?

mdoreenbar.bsky.social•146 days ago

There are 3 choices in Ontario, Ford, Crombie and Stiles. I support Stiles' NDP. Strategically, if the Libs have a better chance in my riding, I'll vote Liberal. Anyone but Ford. Federally,🤞Mark Carney & Liberals all the way.

amaruq909.bsky.social•146 days ago

I was looking at Carney.. need to read more on him. I voted Federally NDP last time cause I hate the Liberal guy in our riding! He does NOTHING! But generally I vote liberal!

mdoreenbar.bsky.social•146 days ago

If you haven't already, watch Carney's interview on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart. That swung me to Carney+his brilliant career in banking & economics. Freeland never after grenade to PMT. Love Karina Gould. A lot to offer. Smart,w steady demeanor. Tough when needed. See her as PM at another time.

I was a life-long Prog Conservative until Harper. Then I became a Liberal. I hope the Federal NDP replaces Singh. He's all over the map & some of his actions are traiterous to me. Lying about jurisd'l responsib's & his 2 terrible letters 1st bringing down govt. 2nd classless response to PMT leaving.

Doug is a crook and a liar. He's more trump than PP, who is just an asshole.

amaruq909.bsky.social•146 days ago

Wow you maybe right cause I remember the "Ford Brothers" and was not impressed. Maybe I need t read up more eh? :)

The Ford family is a crime syndicate

Batshit is the wrong word. Contrary to what’s happening in the US, guano helps seeds grow.

What the right wing populists are planning - here too - is more akin to spraying gasoline on a tree to kill it.

The US has done it before, in Vietnam. The chemical they used was called Agent Orange.
