is a very mentally sick felon thug. Putin knows it too. that is why Putin 'groomed" him to destabilize the US.
We need to fight back now. We need to show these fascists that WE THE PEOPLE MATTER!!!!!

(53,146 posts)It rarely does for tyrants like him. His own life would have been so much better if he'd stayed out of politics in the first place. Meanwhile, he is destroying so many innocent lives in his ridiculous quest for power and prestige.

(53,146 posts)he won't destroy a whole lot in the process. We do have the advantage that he is as old as many dictators when they are at the end of their reign. But I'm afraid Trump will just overcompensate to make up for the lost time.

(13,961 posts)This is on the whole of the GOP and Right Wing media machine, including politicians out of office and stretching all the way to people like Chris Wallace who provided cover for Fox News for years.

(53,146 posts)In the end, Trump is a symptom or a by-product of all those spineless, unethical people who preceded him. Without them, there would be no Trump in the White House. He is their creation.

We are so screwed with this sicko administration.

(13,403 posts)All premiers have come out against the tariffs, I think now all provinces have taken US liquor off the shelves, not sure about the territories. By the way many provinces are only taking off liquor from red states. All premiers have agreed with the counter tariffs, there is still some talk about energy with Alberta (largest oil producer) still hesitating but she has changed her tune somewhat, she is in favour of shipping more oil to other countries and to build pipelines in Canada rather than more to the US. Right now US gets our oil at a discount because we could never get all provinces to agree to pipelines through their provinces (looking at Quebec mostly) to ship to other parts of the world. Our government under Trudeau did get new pipelines through BC to the coast, along with a new LNG plant and we can now ship to Asia, and quite possibly to China instead of them buying from Russia. Quebec has now changed their tune and are talking pipelines to the east ports for shipping to Europe. That will take years to build but once completed we will no longer be selling our oil to the US at a discount.
I hope TSF is in one of those but if not let me know so I can answer your particular question (it means different things here).

(13,403 posts)Yes they are all against him now.

(7,810 posts)me so ill. You are far more abreast of the facts, thanks. I still cant stand our current provincial government.
Bev54
(13,403 posts)I usually turn her off but as I was just about to turn her off yesterday, she said something that caught my attention and so I didnt change the station. She was much more supportive of all Canadian. Still afraid of oil tariffs though.

(72,064 posts)I know its considered one of Canadas more conservative cities. But me and my ultra-liberal brother and sister had a wonderful time. Beautiful (and very, very windy!) city. Nice people. Lots of cool things to do.
Im so sorry, my beloved Canadians. Please hold on to hope that this wont last forever, and we can go back to being great friends and allies again.

Brain-drain the US; boost Canada's population, and reap the rewards of a stronger economy.
That would really embarass this administration.

Sorry, but I have become reflexively anti-graffiti.

(6,908 posts)It looks like the West-East pipeline may go through cutting off flows, oil, gas to the US and expanding or buiding an LNG terminal for Europe instead of the US.

(44,333 posts)And for those not aware, Canadians are petty as fuck, and can hold a grudge like you wouldn't believe.
When Coke closed down their bottling plant in Newfoundland in 1991, Newfoundlanders switched to Pepsi. To this day, 34 years, Newfoundlanders are almost exclusively Pepsi drinkers.
Canadians, en masse, have turned away from American brands and products. This market will be a very difficult one for any US company to sell into for generations.
