You can explain the lack of foreign investment in Canadian telecom and banking anyway you want. Perhaps, it's just a market overlooked by larger American, European and Japanese telecoms and banks. Rather I think there are regulatory impediments that close access to the market. I wasn't the first one to point it out on this thread.

Oh yes there are regulatory impediments in those two sectors that close access to the market.
The banking industry regulations have ensure stability in that sector, via tighter capital requirements
Given what occurred in the USA in 2008 most Canadians would agree there are justifications for maintaining stability there.
Trump wont agree

The telecom sector / Media is also regulated and the rational is a little more murky.
Sum it up as part of our "we like you guys , but do not want to be Americans" view on life

there are also rules about servicing Quebec in French and servicing the far north
I am not sure American companies would want to take on those service requirements
Canada is very likely to stand its ground on these two industries
The French issue would be a real hornets nest to kick.

Exactly.

would you not agree Trumps biggest fan is Trump ? most narcissists are their own biggest fan
would you not agree that Trump has trump Devotee Syndrome?
So he is a tDSers, A tDSer to the max.

Seeing as he's the leader of the cult then he is not a follower. The other thing is that he doesn't actually believe half of the things he says. He knows he's playing the tDSers and laughing at them all the way to the bank/White House, for believing everything. It's like when he said that "his followers would support him even if he shot a man on 5th Ave". So he is not a tDSer.

If you are going to conduct a clinical psychology study, you can not bias your work by excluding a subject simply because you voted for him.
[/QUOTE]
I believe that I am quite objective and do not display much bias. Trudeau in know way has a cult. TBH, I hardly follow Canadian politics. I don't even think that I even voted in the last couple of elections.
[/QUOTE]

i can not figure out your response because of the quotes

That's it??? You're stumped and flabbergast already?

Just remember the retaliation is still there too, but next time it will be stronger.

They don't think about what happens to us with Tariffs, So I wouldn't care about them. Trump is not a nice neighbour.

Trump folded. Play nice next time.

Dave, you should congratulate mandrill on being a top poster on TERB. He and his former friend comfortably hold down the top two spots for posted messages. He always takes time out of his day to welcome the new members.

You should be more respectful of your elders here. :D

Thank you, Earp.

I'm sure Dave has known me for several months already, if not several years. ;)

That's what being in a cult means.

Their own dignity and welfare is abandoned for the sake of their fraudulent, fictitious supreme being. Their adulation blinds them to what is staring them in the face. This is ALL cults.

One cult follower calling out another cult follower.
You didn't even notice when you became part of the same team.

Though here in Ontario, our own leader is also apparently a member of that cult.

how can i be stumped when you did not answer the question ?
You do not mess with logic very often do you ?

Again
You want to turn of the gas to the USA
What do you expect would happen next ?

Not without an election it wont be
Trudeau will be out of other peoples money by then and would have to reconvene Parliament

They don't think about what happens to us with Tariffs, So I wouldn't care about them. Trump is not a nice neighbour.

Yes Trump is not a nice neighbour , he is a bad man , he is mean, nasty and vindictive , he likely never played hockey and probably does not like Tim Hortons.
We know all that

Again
You want to turn of the gas to the USA
What do you expect would happen next ?

I'm really just pointing out to the naive or the deceptive that there is really ever free trade and unfettered investment between nations. It's just a negotiated slog.

The U.S. is not perfect, but since WW2 the U.S. has opened up its market to underpin global trade, investment and to bring emerging economies into the World order.

Until January 6, 2024, and this all changed with a stupid electorate voting in a felon/conman.
