Trumps plan to economically terrorize and buy up hurting companies wonβt work.
The man that has bankrupted more of his own companies than having success ones has overstepped one too many times. This is typical mafia culture π can now be said of the USA and Russia
On March 17, 2014, the Special Economic Measures (Russia) Regulations (βthe Regulationsβ) came into force. The Regulations impose an asset freeze and dealings prohibition on designated persons listed in Schedule 1, which include both individuals and entities.
We never should have been giving them contracts that Canadian companies could fulfill in the first place! Doug Ford is famous for this, but only now says Canada first!
Also, the interprovincial trade barriers must be lifted! They r antiquated & harmful!
Between our citizens, cities, provinces and the federal government, someone should put up a chart showing the billions of dollars Canada has removed from the american economy.
Too bad. So sad.
Sometimes it takes a 2x4 upside the head to get people's attention.
Wonder how many of those contractors and workers voted for donOld because he's a white guy...
I'm proud to be a Canadian, fighting back against this kangaroo court leader and government!
Keep fighting Canada!
Yes, it will hurt us, but we're not giving in or giving up!

I look at other countries who have female presidents, and in 2024, it is supposed to be the free land, we still don't believe in the US, a female president is possible.
The truth is weβve taken Canada for granted for decades, to the point where a clown in the WH can bully and abuse without much protest on our part. Iβm sorry. Especially to my Canadian cousins in Vancouver.
pretty sure this was done some time ago.... and across the board, including municipalities, it could go to the billions... all because of ONE STUPID MAN.
Thank you, Canada, and my sincerest apologies from one (of many) U.S. citizens who did NOT vote for #47. I stand with Canada and Ukraine! π¨π¦πΊπ¦
As long as you cross legally and don't bring in any firearms or fentanyl (both of which MORE cross into Canada from the U.S. than the reverse) I can't see an issue. We love Americans. We just despise your President, who is not legally allowed to come here anyway.
Yeah, I remember awhile ago they arrested some guy for driving around with an actual crossbow. Not shooting it, just carrying it to a LARP or Society for Creative Anachronism event. You just can't carry unsecured weapons around. Maybe if you put your sword into a locked case and registered it...π
I think we just tightened up immigration, but if it were up to me I'd allow American refugees in. (The author of The Handmaid's Tale is Canadian, after all.)
There was a time when I despised countries shutting others out of fair business exchanges, now, with Trump in charge, the world can and should avoid any partnerships with U.S. companies as the U.S., at least until Trump is gone, cannot be trusted to honor any deal.
My exact sentiment. I say stock-up, store water and other necessary things and let the world hit us with their worst. The only way to get out is to completely cut incoming revenue. Without discomfort there is no healing.
Thank you! I'm glad i'm not the only one. Chamberlain's, appeasement did not work out for him very well. Fortunately Winston stepped in and just as a history refresher... Winston Churchill was fully against appeasement... Chuck.
I haven't had the pleasure of reading this myself and now it's in my library, thank you. I have read "Devil in The White City," and really enjoyed his style.
Do it right and weβll help you to get back on your feet and rejoin our comity of nations. Let the felon spend the rest of his demented days in high security prison!
We need to be shunned. As much as it will suck for us sane people, it needs to become an untunable situation for politicians who are enabling and appeasing. Make them force the change we demand - toss Krasnov out of office, send fElon to Mars.
Until it has to? You don't think the 2024 election was that time? With all of the things he was already promising to do?
Sorry, but I disagree.
America is not great at coming up with leaders. Period.

I truly hope so. But I wouldn't be surprised if the US picks Charlie Kirk in however many years.
I think one of the main problems is this:
Twice a woman has run for president. Both times they lost to D fucking T. The US will rather elect the worst of the worst if the other candidate is a woman.
Oh, don't get me wrong. 2024 WAS the time to do it. Hell, 2016 was the time to do it. But we were in a very muffled bubble because we had such a phenomenal President. Our economy was the envy of the world, we had finally beaten inflation and Covid was in the rear view mirror. We weren't ready yet.
Agreed. After four years, my brother's death, and being figuratively kicked in the head repeatedly by my birth country, I don't have a hell of a lot of fight left. What I do have is a strong desire to move, start again, and simply enjoy life without the threat of some retaliatory measures.
Based on your dictator's actions, moving is only going to delay your pain. The asshole's target is "the world". Time to step up and do what it takes to end it.
100 million sheep will get fleeced.
100 million resistors will get your democracy back.
America is losing infrastructure contracts, defence contracts, and partners refusing to share intel. Economy tanking, astronomical tariffs, international trade restricted, non-MAGA media is banned, brown people, genders all banned, there's a list of banned books and words.
Polls estimate between 15 million and 26 million people participated in the United States protests re George Floyd , making these protests potentially the largest movement in terms of participation in U.S. history.
If enough people can convince GOP politicians that they're going to be voted out wholesale next time, then it might work. Although they're just as likely to take the easy approach and rig the election by making it difficult to vote for anyone but them.
Me opening a corporation with my Canadian buddy to circumvent Canadian laws. Much the same way my buddy circumvented bidding work as a minority contractor with his wife as the owner. π π
Even if it wasn't sarcasm, how would opening or aquiring a corporation with a Canadian partner be illegal. The 2nd scenario is quite common here in the states, though promoting Minority contractor's is certainly coming to and end here.
Ford is a horrible Premier for Ontario, but when it comes to trying to impress Canadians across the country he excels at it. He'd love to become the party leader of the Conservative Party of Canada (when Poilievre gets the party boot), and ultimately the PM of Canada. This is part of his audition.
NEVER FORGET WE ARE IN A CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS BECAUSE 77 million DERANGED POORLY EDUCATED MISINFORMED BRAINWASHED EXTREMELY IGNORANT RACIST HOMOPHOBIC CHRISTIAN NOTZIS, & 67% of VETS VOTED FOR A CHILD ΟOLESTING ADJUDICATED β¬RAPIST TWICE IMPEACHED CON ARTIST CROOK & CRIMINAL WITH 34 FELONIES
This is just the tip of the iceberg, I expect this will permeate through the entire country in province after province, in city after city. This has the potential to be a permanent situation, we can longer trust the US and nor should we continue to finance their lifestyes.
Canada has had to endure all the insults and Brow beating from America about being soft and protected, well, as an outsider, I'm glad that Canadians have jumped in the ring and are hitting the US hard.
DOGE using US Marshals to break into any building now. Even those not associated with the US government! We are officially Russia under a Dictator! https://youtu.be/ZlLv_EIL9OE?si=sA_t6zTwVrabw692
You have to speak their language!! And their language is $$$$!!! Take it away. Make it hard for them to get as much money as they are used to getting. They HAVE TO FEEL IT for it to make a difference!!!!!!
Canada just keeps making it clear that the U.S. had NO idea just how reliant it's been on our alliance with Canada over the years. Every time Trump tries to throw out a punch, Canada blocks it with a flick of their wrist and comes back with a fist to the eye. β€οΈπ€β€οΈ π¨π¦π¨π¦
With all the low bid private contracts laws done in the states I would recommend Canada never hiring private US Firms.
They deliberately do substandard work requiring repeat redos on infrastructures every 3-5 years locally making ever getting more than arterials fixed impossible in WA State.
Dirty politics demand dirty actionβs and I support Canada even though Iβm AMERICAN and will pay for the Presidentβs stupidity along with my fellow country people.
The thing is, if one hires a company to do a job and they send an individual that completely destroy everything, it is unlikely one would hire that company again. That's the biggest tragedy of this; it will take many years to recover both financially but Also as a Nation. :-(
Maybe! But most Canadians have been given a lasting bad taste in their mouths that wonβt go away for a generation! Sorry! It is what it is. But people to people, itβs ok & always has been!
Itβs only the madness of your current govt that has poisoned inter-relationships of future π¨π¦πΊπΈ governments!
Why would we do business with the Dems, when we risk you electing another Trump that rips up all deals after 4 years again?
Used to be you could depend on the US honoring its deals. We can't anymore. So we'll choose different partners for everything we can reasonably switch over from you on.
The world changes on a daily basis and either you change with it or you get lest behind.Trump is working himself into a corner and nothing will save him from IMPEACHMENT. I understand your anger but time is needed for change to come. The Glass is Half FULL, not Half Empty. Thank You.
Exactly. The dems can be relied on to be united even now so assuming that a dem led government would be any better is naive. The US has a lot of work to do to sort out the mess that is currently being created and the mess that got them there. Until that is done, how can any of us trust them?
When you let doom and gloom control your thinking then the worst happenβs. Iβm up for the fight for freedom as well as otherβs. Winning a battle isnβt as important as winning the war. Thank You.
Those countries as well as Germany, South Africa and maybe a few others have military contractors who would really benefit if they could steal the business from the American industry.
This is a reasonable policy. Would the US trust an Iranian or N Korean company with a public works project? The US is a belligerent. There is simply too much risk to Canada with engaging in business with a US based company.

Any questions... look up Hitler's Germany.
Canada needs to react and adapt to the economic attacks by the US .gov in the same ways that Europe reacted & adapted to the threats by Russia.

If the American people stand up and fight for their democracy, then it will not be someone worse.
The bar however, is VERY low.

Gotta do something.
Now would be good.
Keep it up, Oh, Canada!
Continue to resist.

And after what happened with Chuck I don't trust a goddamn Dem either. The only three I'm on board with is AOC,Crockett and Bernie.

If they choose instead to do business with European companies that will permanently decrease the US defense capability.
Itβs a big part of the defense industry.
