If this is what it takes for Canada to finally start diverting its economy away from the US,
If this is what it takes for Canada to finally realize the US doesn’t see us as an equal,
Then bring it, orange piece of shit. Your move.
I don’t think anything brings Canadians together like an enemy, and right now the US is an enemy to us.
Fuck Trump. Fuck the US. Buy Canadian.
Now is the time to help out our fellow Canadians if you’re able.
I have three grocery stores in town. Freshco, Save on, and Superstore. Two are canadian owned but Save on’s owner is a giant asshole who lives in Vancouver, Superstores owner is a giant asshole who lives in Toronto. The Freshco may be american but at least the owner of the actual store lives in town and is taking the time to point out the Canadian products in the store to people. I will do what I can to cut down on american food but sometimes eating takes precedent.
I agree but it’s not the US, it’s the US government. Yes it was elected by US citizens, but a lot of them were misled by liars and I blame their (and our) education system which permits adequacy.
I don’t think they should get a pass for being a bunch of morons (if I’m understanding your comment correctly). They elected this guy once already and that should’ve given them all the education they needed. As one of their greatest minds once said, “Fool me once, shame on … shame on you. Fool me… You can’t get fooled again!”
Yes, but this is the government they chose. That’s after 30 criminal charges, after inject bleach and take horse dewormer for Covid, after Jan 6, and after project 2025 was released, after “I’ll be a dictator in day 1”, after “mass deportations now”.
This is a FANTASTIC time for folks to start supporting Canadian made brands and avoid giving money to US companies - and that includes US companies doing business in Canada. We send a TON of money to the US via Amazon, Netflix, etc.
I’ve been really enjoying CBC Gem lately. North of North is a fun sitcom about life in the far north with a fantastic cast. Son of a Critch is also gold.
A good time to visit https://lemmy.ca/c/buycanadian Hopefully there’s some more activity over there in the near future
On Caturday of all days. He’s gonna have a hard time “clawing” this one back.
This comment is an absolute gem.
The US playing right into Russia and China’s hands by fracturing good relationships amongst the world’s biggest allies. Putin and co. couldn’t ask for a bigger gift on a silver platter.
But I’m not worried about Canada. We will develop other trading partners and persevere until the US comes to its senses. Hopefully won’t take 4 years.
