The Tariff Thread

Let the mudwrestling begin.

Hahahha... Lizzzz.... Famously the shortest serving PM in British history. 7 weeks, I have no skin in the game but I did follow this story.... The lettuce won.

I would take critique on fiscal policy from my 12 year old before I subscribe to her opinions.

Doesn' t matter. Some people are so hell bent on voting out the Libs that they will search the deepest mud pile looking for mud to sling. lol I couldn't be bothered doing that for PP. I already know what PP is. He has made that abundantly clear and that's why Carney is leading at the moment. If he loses he can look in the mirror.

I recall when they came up with the contest. And ya it was 49 days. She had to have someone to try and blame for her short and inglorious reign , lol. Although she isn’t the only one it seems with the same opinion on this particular topic . For some reason the British do seem to go through Prime Ministers fairly regularly. She is but one of six in the last ten years. In the last ten years in Canada we’ve had 1.5 :rolleyes:

Maybe Canada could take a lesson from the Brits.

Just thought I would throw it out there to see what kind of reaction it would generate. I doubt it will influence the outcome of the election …. ;)

They are ruthless.... Grew up there, ruthless yet proper politicking if there ever was such a thing. I do miss some of the speakers...


OK, taken it off the rails now, this is the tariff thread.

They certainly have that British sense of decorum. They also seem somewhat less partisan than our Speaker has turned out to be on more than one occasion.

I always found it interesting why so many voters focus solely on the leader of a particular party. One person doesn’t run a country nor do they formulate all of their party’s policies. Perhaps if more of them looked more closely at things like overall performance and execution or lack there of over a period of governance that we may end up with a better outcome than what results from a popularity contest which seems to be what’s happening now.
 
Can't get into your last couple links... won't let me read unless I subscribe to their papers....
Thought I should throw in a couple of articles critical of PP , lol. All of them came from Apple News on my iPad. I don’t subscribe to the News + so quite a few articles aren’t available to read but there is still way more than I care to already . Except for the one from the Star . I went to their site as I knew I’d find an article or 10 critical of the Tories , lol. …..OK I just hit the link from the Star and up it came with no paywall. I used Firefox to get the link originally so try that, see what happens.
 
Friends of my better half from Georgia came for a visit for the past few days. The sad thing is most Americans buy into the prospect of the more jobs that their ignorant leader promise them. They fail to see the negative impact that will likely to out weight what ever job that they hope it will be created.
It is good that the ignorant donkey is so arrogant to pick trade war with everyone on this planet. If he would have issolate us as the only target, we would be in a much worse position.
As much as he is the problem, his supporters should lay most of the blame as well. I hope his followers will feel their living standard slowly errod away for the gain of that donkey and his rich buddies. The greatest con job ever. lol...
Having said that, we won't let any politics drived a wedge in our friendship. They enjoy their time in the GTA and will be back sometime.
They know there is a backlash against visiting and buying American stuff. I told them that 90% of us hate Trump and will not be any part of the US.😀
I think China has found the US/donkey's kryptonite in the form of US Bond which they have a lot of.

You are right on the money. I also have friends south of the border. They all have blinders on. All that registers with them is the riches that Trump will bring to the American economy. They are believing all the BS about the other countries of the world ripping the US off and don't understand that there is a down side to what Trump is doing. When you try to discuss with them what effects this is having worldwide, they just keep falling back to "But just wait. The US will be rich again".
 
The Dow was up 2962 at the close. Lots of investors lost a lot of money over the last several days but this market manipulation is also making a number of people an awful lot of money. Not hard to guess who a lot of them are. Meme coins….. heard of one called Dogecoin :rolleyes:
Insider trading by and for traitor trump.

Easy, let's not get too aggressive. I agree with you though. Someone must have thought importing old cars is a rich mans thing. Can't think of any other reason for tariffs on old cars.
In the end it is our Canadian border customs, charging the 25%, think all should be able to appeal, items, like this car, for rebates from our own Government. My idea ownly guys!
