PP is going to be antagonistic to China as well, I heard. It’s the only clear direction I’ve heard about his foreign policy aside from the bombing Iran thing (I think it was just showboating)Manufacturing moved to China because of cost. If the tarrifs are so high as to make Chinese made products uneconomical then manufacting will move to the next viable cheapest country to manufacture which will not be the US.
The tarrifs are not about US jobs, it is about economic warfare against China. With that said an economic war is better than a real war.
What China imports is raw materials, energy and food. That matters. Canada is well placed to survive a downturn.I am fundamentally opposed to tariffs
Amongst the major economy's the US is positioned relatively well for a tariff war

Wokism has driven the Left even more insane.Lol the far left of today if you took a gander at liberal arts academia are batshit insane. It’s definitely different now. The craziest leftist I ever met was this anarchocommunist radfem who wanted women to live on small communes where men are only used for reproductive purposes and the women would just be political lesbians. She said we would be making our own butter and tampons and it would be a community of caring and sharing. She only wore black and had hella tattoos. Just the antithesis of me.
When asked a few questions she hit me with the “internalized misogyny” accusation then told me that she hopes I die in a coalmine during The Water Wars.
She also wanted to march upon Bezos and all Amazon facilities and Molotov cocktail them.
This is the purported intelligentsia producing knowledge at our institutions right now. God help us. It is absolutely cursed
Can’t even make an inconsequential deez nuts joke anymore without someone calling it “stigmatization”Wokism has driven the Left even more insane.
Its like they committed political suicide this last election.
I'm hoping for much more wokism in the future so they can lose even more elections
Stop psychologizing me. You know nothing about me or my history. Now you are accusing me, baselessly, of having racial self-hatred too?There is really a trigger here. I told you what you said was a bit whoreophobic you snapped and talk about how people told you you had other internalized issue and now you talk about stop talking to women online.
I think I am not the only one who told you how you were coming across. I think you must be online a lot fighting and because your opinion is not necessarily welcome in the industry, you started resenting your peer. Hell maybe even yourself because you are asian decent with KKK initial but let's not go there. Also probably your upbringing (academical pressure? Stigma?) makes you so competitive that you lose your capacity to see when to stop and you are just obsessed by winning no matter who you will take down for it.
I am not book smart but I see you. I don't hate you, but I see you.![]()
David Pakman is losing it.Wokism has driven the Left even more insane.
Its like they committed political suicide this last election.
I'm hoping for much more wokism in the future so they can lose even more elections
They removed my tag again under my username again for some reasonI STILL CANNOT BELIEVE THE MODS CHANGED THE TITLE OF THIS POST. SO HERE WE GO AGAIN, LEFTIES IN YOUR FACE, TRUMP WON.
???What China imports is raw materials, energy and food. That matters. Canada is well placed to survive a downturn.
This guy is a clown. Nothing he says is genuine.Now that the election process is controlled by oligarchs, it's time to FEEL DA BERN.
You're wrong roddermac, don't let dogma over-rule common sense. BERN is railing against oligarchs who have total control over everything. The question you should ask yourself is, what happens when Buffet croaks?This guy is a clown. Nothing he says is genuine.
So that means americans will just pay more for everything, even if its eventually made in the USYou don't get it. If it becomes too expensive to import then they make it in America for the same cost without the tariff. Add in the fact it employees Americans who will in turn pay taxes. That is the whole point of tariffs.
I'm betting he does nothing until he has done his thing with China, Gaza, Ukraine, Iran, Immigration, tax cuts, getting a cabinet in place, other domestic issues. So that will be after our election.???
most of Canada's exports are to the states
United States ($438B), China ($25.4B),
We definatly have some risk we will need to naviagte
an economic downturn is different than a tariff war
unless the tariffs cause the economic downturn
the expectation (ex tariffs) is for a soft landing mild recession after a prolonged expansion of the economic cycle
tariffs could create a more severe recession
they also will re-allocate where things are made and sold
trump is going to cut taxes, income tax corporate taxes and taxes on overtime (positive)
while kicking the can down the road on the federal debt bomb (bad & very irrsponsible)
he will undue the regulatory burden (good for US financials and energy)
US manufacturing will win because of reshoring ( good0
Canada has an oppourtunity to greatly benefit from the US changes if we are smart and undue the absurd Trudeau regulatory burden , particularly in energy
we need to shrink the size of govt
Our Supply Mnagement system is going to be attacked
if you view it objectively its not at all aligned with free trade
Quebec Dairy farms will be a target for sure which is a poltical hot potato
Canadians consumers pay way too much for Dairy
Trump despises Trudeau and freeland, Trump was not haapy with the USCMA and is not going to pussyfoot around this time
so we do not want these two bozos negociating for Canada.
Trump will screw Canada over just out of spite for Trudeau
Pierre P will be far better positioned to get a more favorable deal
We need an election and right away
We can not afford to wait until Jagmeet Singh and the liberal bloodsuckers qualifiy for MP pensions
Quite the projection you like to make idiot. I stand by what I said. Economic warfare against China whether you like it or not kiddo.do you know of many people who like to b intentionally deceived ?
no massive surprise, lying scumbags do not care what others think
next time proof read your lies
Blame Trudeau...it was not that easy to enter Canada during Harper's term...all immigration applicants are vetted....hard. some even require "show money" to be allowed here...not anymore.Immigrants come from emigrant nations.
Emigrant nations are usually 3rd world nations.
It does not matter where immigrants come from.
We need to allow in properly qualified ones.
Example:
In the US, the Indian diaspora are considered model minorities. They are the highest income groups.
In Canada? Below average.
None of our processes are set up to identify successful people or enable them to be successful once they get here.
A qualified person is rejected because our institutions reject foreign credentials. The US does not do this.
Then our politicians allow tons of low wage workers via TFW.
Makes no sense.
In this way we are systemically disadvantaged.
Thank you for your gripping psychoanalysis peppered with lies and misrepresentation. All you know is eat hot chip and lieYou are obviously more interested in how people perceived you than proceed to an introspection and admit you went tpo far. The minute you went off at Kitty and I, you knew that was shitty, and you started to project your own guilt on us and try to switch the narrative to feel better about it. When you said that "everyone feel like you are a monster" I knew.
Lack of self esteem that you feed by male attention.
Now look at you engaging with people that are trying to pin us against each other. Laughing at memes and back handed compliments.
I hope they pick you honey.
Gorgeous gorgeous girl and smart! but so much internal work left to do.
That's required today too.Blame Trudeau...it was not that easy to enter Canada during Harper's term...all immigration applicants are vetted....hard. some even require "show money" to be allowed here...not anymore.
But it's jobs for Americans. Can't pay for shit if you're unemployed.So that means americans will just pay more for everything, even if its eventually made in the US
