We need to make our own "bazooka" like the EU.
The only interaction I now have with the usa is that I am boycotting them. This will be for the rest of my life. I do not want to interact with anyone who ever voted for trump and since I am old......
American here. Please do. The lead-addled mouthbreathers that allowed this mess to happen will need to die off sufficiently before we can return to sanity.
Lucky bastard. ๐ I hope health treats you well for the remainder of your boycott!
Thank you trump for making Carney's point for him
No appeasement
Carney changed the world with his speech in Davos, the EU canceled the their lopsided trade deal with the US. Trump Tacoโd out of attacking Greenland and/or Iceland claiming he got concepts of a plan or whatever in respects to Greenland. These tariffs will last at most 11 months but hopefully only a few more weeks, the Supreme Court down there is either going to tell him his tariffs are illegal or he gets impeached.
I hope Carney does not chicken out.
I know it's not the jerk, but I wonder why he chose this moment to go back to elbows up. Blowing smoke up Trump's ass was working pretty well, all things considered, and the Greenland crisis is over.
He also called Carney "governor" in the same post.
It's time for this Liberal government's "Just Watch Me" moment.
The moment already happened, it's the entirety of Carney's speech. There's a reason it's getting the praise and attention it's gotten, it was a wake up call for the whole world and it seems most heard it as intended.
Carney is no Pierre. Never mind the fact PT's response had to do with internal strife in our country ... not with some wacked out pedophilic cunt who thinks he's king of the world.
Everything we buy from the US is made in China anyway, so we're just cutting out the middleman.
If we can eliminate US IP protection next then we can build our own technology and do away with them completely.
Everything we buy from the US
Trump's tariffs are on things Americans buy from Canada.
This. I starred buying from AliExpress years back because amazon stores were just sending the exact same product for 5-10x the price. People got upset and said I wasn't supporting american entepaneurs stores they setup. Lol. And that Aliexpress owner is a billionaire. Sure, but why make Bezos rich too? Just buy direct.
People got upset and said I wasn't supporting american entepaneurs stores they setup.
๐ That would have been me some time ago.
I really wonder what america is even producing at this point. Americans are all high and mighty and shit on "chinese crap". That's what i think when i have to use something made in the usa. They use their weird middle aged measurement system to produce cheap garbage where you need said middle aged tools to use or fix. And somehow it's expensive
This is a super important point. You go to Home Depot and you see something with the American flag on it. You turn it over - "Made in the USA with domestic and global materials." Read - a lot of Chinese inputs, parts and subassemblies. That along with a small markup for the fellow poorly paid American assembly worker, and a huge markup for the corporation owner. Cut the middle man and let the American worker deal with him many-on-one - something that has to happen anyways, if this shit is to ever get better.
The owner of home depot is a trump supporter. I do not shop there.
First off, you mean CEO. There were two co-CEOโs. One used to be a Trump supporter. He died.
Same. Rona's American private equity owned, so also a Trump supporter.
Get fucked you orange diaper monkey, didn't you get Carney's message in Davos?
He didn't. Everyone else is praising the speech but it had too many big words for him to understand. That's why he's so mad at Carney again.

Appeasement is not going to work with this guy. It's time for some allies, like Europe, to finally show some backbone and align against the US in a unified front to push back against this. If he can keep picking on one nation at a time while their allies all capitulate to avoid being targeted, everyone will suffer much worse in the end.
This guy is big pissed that we said you can stand up to bullies.
What happened to the US doesn't need anything from Canada?
A week ago he said it was smart. Then it was we'll regret it. Now it's 100% tariffs and we're doomed.
Fuck off. I'm done. This man is so fucking emotionally fragile, he's like a fucking baby.
And that's not to mention that he's a pussy who'll back out as soon as some other billionaire talks to Trump.
This man is so fucking emotionally fragile, heโs like a fucking baby.
He's so emotionally fragile that he's showing the entire world there's no point trying to deal with him. He'll always change his mind tomorrow and you'll be back to square one. Why even bother? You are better off dealing with someone who understands the value of negotiating a deal and keeping promises.
I used to get nervous when I saw something like this. Now, it's like watching reruns.
Struggling to understand the logic here.
Me: "Hey, Amazon, I'm going to buy something from Target"
Amazon: "That's it! From now on everything costs twice as much for you!"
Me: "Target also has other things I need, so..."
You're making the same mistake as Trump. Tariffs aren't paid by Canadians.
It's more, "Hey Amazon, I've got all this stuff I want to sell and you've said you don't need it, and you've been altering our agreement a ton lately, unilaterally and arbitrarily, making it hard to maintain a business relationship with you. So I'm going to sell it to Target too". And then Amazon saying "That's it!! We're gonna double the price for our customers on any good you sell to us, so our customers'll probably buy less of it!!!"
So.... you sell more to Target and other vendors. Cause Amazon's actions are reducing your market viability in their selling space even further. And their idiotic random arbitrary actions, basically just re-emphasize the point you were making. Sorta like how Carney made a Davos speech about great powers bullying smaller countries, and Trump's response -- that many Americans thought was 'great!', was "Canada doesn't live without the US" -- so more bullying. Canada exports a silly amount of raw materials, which can be sold in quite a few places other than the US if the US ain't buying. Canada's spent a big chunk of 2025 building those additional trade relationships to buffer against this sort of strange behaviour from the states.
The US Administration makes very little sense these days.
