Hot Pink List

Tariffs on Canada delayed for 30 days after talk between Trudeau and Trump. Trump folds.

He has not folded yet, we should be clear, that while we work on implementing the things we agreed to, we are also working on a much more comprehensive plan of retaliation, in case Trump proceeds after 30 days. Canada will be ready to defend. This should be a much larger tariff package and we should also say energy is on the table if we need it.
The real play here is he wants jobs back from Mexico and Canada, but it's almost impossible to do this.

Reality is undefeated. Our economy is too interconnected to just throw tariffs around. What makes it worse is we are having a shoving match that the world is watching. The EU, East Asian, South America etc is watching and will say lets plan before this guy targets us next.

I can't understand how anyone with a brain is saying Trump won or Canada is bending the knee. Trump is literally isolating America, with nothing to really show for it.

You have a post-graduate degree and Dr. in front of your name - then why are you so woke? 😂😂😂
1)You said I was not educated. I showed that to be wrong.
2)I am anything but. Do you think that criticizing trump and putting holes in your colleagues' arguments is somehow woke? How is that?

You may not like me, but that does not make me woke. Look up the definition.


What issues am I woke on? Please quote my posts.

Why wouldn't he feel that way?
I can think of a few hundred reason but I'm too much of a gentleman to call you out. It's possible you're smart enough to figure it our on your own unassisted. After all you bought yourself a diploma from a website so that shows how savvy you are.:rolleyes: :ROFLMAO:

I dont know how that takes away from what I said.
T-Mobile, ATT and Verizon are a monopoly in the US just like Rogers, Bell and Telus are in Canada.
The point you were trying to make was that Rogers, Bell and Telus are not allowed to operate in the U.S.
If Deutsche Telecom could come to the U.S. and build one of the U.S.' largest carriers, so could a Canadian telecom.

If you actually believe Canada organically has three local telecom companies in an open investment environment, you are not making the connections.

Zero! Please share an example? I'll wait....
All of them.

Remember that one of the core traits of trump Devotee Syndrome, tDS, is the inability to recognize reality. You can't see what you are. You can't see that your in a cult.

OK, here's a challenge back regarding that list.

If you don't believe everything he says, show us posts where you told us that you believe he's lied. I predict that you have never, ever, ever, ever, never ever, never never claimed that he lied.

By definition, if you say that you don't believe everything he's said, then you must have examples of him lying. Which times were those.

p.s., I hope I didn't keep you waiting very long. That was about 20 minutes, but you can now see that all of traits belong to you.

tDS trump Devotee Syndrome strikes again.

First you say I'm one of his favourite people and then you say you have 100's of reasons why he wouldn't like me. 🤪 o_O

So you have zero examples to share and decided to divert the conversation in an entirely different direction......wait a minute....this is Justin isn't it? I'm going to insist you provide some examples of my spelling mistakes. Put up or shut up as the kids say.....

First, I'm poorly educated. If I'm educated, then I must have taken social sciences. If I have a doctorate then I must be woke. If I'm not woke I must have bought my degree.

Once again this quote below shows how typical you are of a trump cultist with trump Devotee Syndrome, tDS. Please admit what you've become since trump captured your imagination and your heart.

The logic of a Trump supporter: "He didn't say that. And if he did, he didn't mean that. And if he did, you didn't understand it. And if you did, it's not a big deal. And if it is, others have said worse!"

I know you didn't, but I believe that you included a post that he sent to me originally claiming I was poorly educated.

More than 2? Not at all. But I believe that transgender people deserve more rights than right-wingers are willing to give them. BTW, the right to compete against female athletes in sports, is not a right that I agree with. I very strongly disagree.

Isn't fentanyl a self correcting problem in the long run?
Yes it is for many. We can make a better assessment if you tell us your current daily dosage.

I'll concede that he was right when he said that he loves the poorly educated. Forget elite colleges and private schools and discuss government funded schools. Do you think that the US has a better educational system than Canada? All Ontarian kids get basically the same education. Inner city Phiile, Baltimore, Boston, Buffalo, Detroit, Chicago, Patterson NJ and all of the poor southern states and so many more districts are all under-funded. All of the rural kids work the mines and fields and never get a good education. Those kids will almost never have a chance.

These are the people that voted trump in. Even these people know how to put an "X" beside trump's name. It is not a display of intelligence.



Actually, I am. I have a post-graduate degree and Dr. in front of my name.

You post those laugh emojies after so many of my posts as well as the laugh reactions. You haven't figured out how laughable your comments are. You are laughing at yourself. trump loves the poorly educated.
Translation, blah blah blah blah. Posting you have a dr in front of your name, we're so proud. Lol

Canada doesn't explicitly prohibit ATT, Verizon and T-Mobile from competing in Canada.
Becoming a Telecom provider involves network infrastructure, spectrum licenses and regulatory approvals which are often very cost prohibitive..
That holds good for both the US and Canada.
As for DT, they did not come to the US organically. They acquired T-Mobile's predecessor several years ago.
So again not sure how this helps your case.
It is not like the US allows laissez faire expansion even amongst the big 3 domestically.
For example mergers are subject to FCC review and conditions.
