    "That’s the kind of disruption we would never expect,” said Hung.

    Who could have seen that coming ?

    “I never heard of this happening until now. It’s definitely quite a bit of headwinds.”

    Maybe pull your head all the way out of your ass.

      Every time I see American news about Canada, it is striking how they are so completely clueless about how infuriated the Canadians have been with the US lately.

      This isn’t just one of the usual quarrels we have with them from time to time. This is an existential threat. Canadians are kept awake wondering if they’ll have to wage guerrilla warfare against an invader in their future. All of this because the spoiled rich toddler the Americans have elected has decided that he is entitled to Canada.

        I have never once in my life thought about owning a gun. I hated the idea of ever having one in my home. Now I’m kind of wondering if I should get one in the event the US does invade…

    I can see the difference in my pantry versus what is on the grocery store shelves today. Tins that used to proudly state Product of USA Imported by some company in Mississauga ON, now only mentions the importer and hides the country of origin. Evidently many American companies are ashamed to be associated with their own country.

      For me, a product with no clear country of origin goes back on the shelf. If I’m not sure where it’s a product of and there’s a possibility of it being American, I’m not buying.

      That’s editorializing. Companies want to make as much money as possible, and right now hiding their US origin increases sales.
