If it keeps tending in the direction it's going, even if the conservatives get more seats, they may not necessarily win. We're almost in coalition territory. We would be already if the BQ and Liberals were willing to work together.

Yes

We didn't do nothing. We announced massive retaliatory tariffs. The do nothing impression came from the fact that they asked for concessions we already offered.

Also, the US is still hitting us with tariffs. Starting March 4, 25% on everything then in April an additional 25% on steel and aluminum.

Canada has higher standards, but not as high as they should be. To be clear, the food we sell locally will not necessarily meet EU standards (but most probably would anyway), but the food we sell to you must meet EU standards.

Also, we love visitors to Canada. Toutes mes excuses, le français Québécois est très différent du français parlé en Europe.

I hope you do visit.

Do you know the food standards laws, or are you assuming? We are not the US, our laws are much stricter. As an example, I saw someone in the EU say Canada would never want your dairy laws because we would have to pasteurize our milk which would increase the price. Thing is... we do pasteurize our milk. That's already a rule.

But that's irrelevant anyway. Freetrade means free of duty or tariff, not free of regulations. Any Canadian goods (including food) sold in the EU, must meet EU standards.

So if your objection is legal criteria, there is no substance to your objection.

We already have a good deal. CETA just need to be taken advantage of

It says elected. He has no intention of having another election.

CBC should be entirely hands off. It is a corp, not a government department. Publicly funded or not.

I am not a narcissist. I don't think I'm better or more important than anyone else. I don't think I'm the center of the universe.

I am however, an asshole. Knowing you are not the best or smartest, doesn't mean you can't be arrogant and insufferable.

Like a publicly funded crown corp?

3 months is fuck all.

The Crown asked for 10 years.

That's it....

WTF

Yes please.

I keep seeing this talking point. Is it true?

Consider that Australia has a similar population, similar geographic issues and they have domestic auto production.

South Korea is only slightly larger than us in terms of population and has 3 domestic companies building cars. We could certainly do like Korea and export vehicles.

The only thing stopping us from having a Canadian domestic auto industry is the pervasive and false belief that we can't because we need to sell to the US.

We don't. We can sell to anyone willing to buy.

Edit: To add. My first new car was built by an independent plant that manufactured for multiple car companies.

I'm in PP's riding. We're doing our part to turf him.

OnlyOffice, not Open Office. OnlyOffice strives for Office compatibility.

No issues yet whether I create docs, or other users do.

Not what you asked, but i switched my wife to OnlyOffice and she can't find much difference betweenit and MS. For myself and most importantly, I switched my work system to OnlyOffice and my coworkers haven't had any issues with files I shared with them.

I'm not underestimating his dangerousness. But the fact is, he's gotten where he is based on force of personality and people just letting him get away with things because giving in was easier than dealing with a whining man baby. No one expected him to gain a cult that quite literally worshipped him.

But none of that changes the fact that he is dumb and just does whatever whoever praises him or enriches him the most. He's not a puppeteer, he's a puppet. An extremely dangerous fool.

He is definitely not pretending

Did you actually read it?
