Now reinstate that fucking Digital Services Tax !
Or, as was originally planned, Negotiate a global minimum tax with the EU and other major markets. Then better yet, remove DRM anti-circumvention legislation. That way Canadian companies can openly jailbreak our phones and offer alternative app stores on the devices we own -with no American middleman taking a third of the money we spend.
This is the only way to hurt Trump. Financially. It’s all a grifter knows. I wish ALL countries would blacklist America.
His reign won’t be stopped with arms and violence. It’ll be stopped by boycotts. And we’re now barreling towards a national labor strike. All we need is just to be pushed into the “nothing left to lose” category…
I just realized that McCain is a Canadian company. Sorry, I’ve been boycotting their fries and stuff for the past few months, but it was a mistake - damn you, John McCain!
The McCains still have their list of problems, much like other large Corporations and billionaires, but they are Canadian.

We need to, fuck the us
Nah. We just need to work around the risk we didn’t know they represented.
Who didn’t know that the US was the Mecca of bigotry, racism, homophobia, and corporate greed? Seriously, I can’t be the only person who saw this coming as soon as Trump’s name went on the ballot in 2016.
I knew this in the 80s when I met one of their racist children while camping. That country was forged on exploitative practices and it’s never recanted or changed, just wallpapered over its flaws and failures with increasingly intricate excuses.
We are finally seeing the effects of the rot below the veneer.
That’s great but can you reduce our US exports?
Trump is handling that part, it’s the reason we need to increase our non-US exports
We need to increase our non-US exports because the US is our enemy. Not because they are limiting it.
Let’s just do business with non asshole countries only.
This is major progress.
But to get US to beg for economic ties with Canada, we must break military/geopolitical sycophancy ties. Charge a high price for NORAD, Helping the US in a pretenseless war on Venezuela should have a publicly high $ figure as compensation for our evil. Pure evil in Latin America and elsewhere, is something we’ve officially always supported. Iraq the only exception. Supporting pretenseless wars and coups in Latin America is supporting the same (lack of) principled war on Canada, including fentanyl pretenses.
His speech is promising, but to open Canadian trade, we need to stop pretending that the US controlled world is the free world. While our Ukrainian diaspora has a one sided political criteria, even if they are descendants of nazi war criminals fleeing prosecution for their war crimes, siding with geopolitical lies just gets their country destroyed to the last Ukrainian, and peace with Russia is far more important to defense against the US.
This is a return to the election night speech. The journey has been extremely ugly and unproductive. This is a commitment to saving Canada, but it has to be followed through aggressively with certainty, no matter how polite/diplomatic the language has to remain towards the US.
Ukrainian diaspora has a one sided political criteria, even if they are descendants of nazi war criminals fleeing prosecution for their war crimes
You know there were Ukrainians in Canada long before WWII right? Or were they communist then ? 🙄
There was a large anti-communist wave, ideologically aligned with ww2 nazis and the recent US sponsored resurgence, and puppet governments. Nazi ideology is/was first and foremost an anti-Communist ideology. US and its colonies have pursued geopolitical nazi ideology even prior to ww2. Last week, on same day, 2 oil refineries with Russian connections in Hungary and Romania were destroyed. Like Nordstream, either its NATO or the substantial Ukrainian refugee populations forcing the continued extermination of Ukrainians, and Russophobia inspired austerity/self-destruction on the NATO colonies. The quiet media on the subject is failure to detract from geopolitical nazi support.
The anti-immigration/replacement theory movement views immigrants and their future babies an act of war against naziism because future nazi rightful rulership will want to genocide them and war-murder their home countries, and they might vote against that. “Immigrant compatible values” rewards those who will commit terrorist acts in favour of nazi warmongering rule.
Canada can’t survive as an ideological nazi colony, where it’s master is openly subjugating it, as it has always diminished its anti-nazi targets. Enforcing zionist/nazi supremacy in immigration policy is just a small part of the complete corruption of democracy, but the fuller corruption is the ideological programming aligned with US evil.

LOL Yeah Right Carney you start first. When you move 94% of your investments back to Canada from the United States, Stop Gas-Lighting Canadians on the trade deals. Green light #NorthernGetaway and remove all restrictions affecting its production. Then I will start relying more on Canadian business
He does not know what his investments are in and has no access to them, they are in a blind trust.
A blind trust isn’t BLIND. He can still see them in fact he has already bought military equipment for our army from one of his investments… He Knows what he has and where it is. LOL
lol… yet it is. You fiscal Conservatives don’t know shit.
Definition of a Blind Trust A blind trust is a legal arrangement where the trustor (the person who creates the trust) transfers control of their assets to a trustee (the person managing the trust) without retaining knowledge of how those assets are managed. This setup is designed to prevent conflicts of interest, particularly for individuals in sensitive positions, such as politicians or corporate executives.
How a Blind Trust Works Key Roles Trustor: The individual who establishes the trust and places assets into it. Trustee: An independent party who manages the trust assets without input from the trustor. Beneficiary: The person or entity that benefits from the trust, often the trustor themselves. Asset Management Once the trust is established, the trustee has full discretion over the assets. The trustor does not know what investments are held or how they are managed. This separation helps ensure that the trustor’s decisions in their professional role remain unbiased.
I know exactly what it is and how it works. Go watch the Committee meetings that have been going on about Carney’s Conflict of Interests all ~104 of them. Remember during the election when he was asked about his conflicts and he said “What possible conflicts?” LOL https://youtube.com/shorts/P8uH7_gef4A
No, you don’t know how it works.
“The trustor does not know what investments are held or how they are managed. This separation helps ensure that the trustor’s decisions in their professional role remain unbiased.”
They don’t know how they are managed so they can’t influence them.
And that YT video is nothing but Carney saying he is following the rules. How does that prove anything? Don’t be a Conservative stooge and use your brain.
Even if he does know what is in it he cannot do anything about it.
Are you familiar with Moose on the lose on X and youtube? He has put a lot of work into tracking Mark Carney’s investments and you can have a look at the data here https://x.com/dsimieritsch/status/1968058733449375822
oh well if the moose on the lose says it… i mean, that is hard evidence right there! hahahahaha
He even has Carney’s Lie tracker on there.
Scared of the truth? Contact him if you don’t believe him he is willing to be proven wrong on any piece of his data. Bitch The funny thing is the chart was just a small chart to start now it’s Charlies mess on the wall
I’ll believe it when I see it - Carney doesn’t seem to actually have done anything so far.
Carney is very bad at communicating and informing Canadians. He likes to keep everything private until there are results to publish. It keeps me worried that he’s accomplishing nothing and my confidence in his abilities is very low considering how he’s folded all the hands we actually held.
He signed a big trade and defense pact with indonesia and a bilateral trade agreement with mexico, partially cutting the us out of north american trade. he’s only been pm for, like, 8 months.
Not only has he signed multiple trade agreements, but the trade data is showing a solid shift way from the US to other countries already -despite the fact that most industry works on contracts that are longer than 8 months. The fact that it’s already moving is impressive. https://newsinteractives.cbc.ca/features/2025/canada-international-trade/
Did you actually read the agreement? It leaves Canada in $600M trade deficit. Media loves to skip the details.
Can you explain what a trade deficit is and why it’s bad?
He doesn’t know like Trump doesn’t know.
Judging trade deals purely on money in vs. money out is Trump thinking.
Are you going to demand that you get out of the trade deficit you have with your grocer of choice?
Why not? Are you to afraid that capitalism would then be replaced with communism? It is important that you understand what Trump is talking about before you echo him.
Exactly. funny how telling the truth here gets you more down votes than up votes. says a lot about the crowd here. Have you seen the Moose on the Loose Mark Carney Chart it has all his investments and ties to China and just about every thing you could want to know is there, If you have a question check HERE https://x.com/dsimieritsch/status/1968058733449375822
Share the word
Always assess Mark’s results against Polyestre’s predicted path: subjugation and the 51st state.
Bullshit. Don’t settle like that. Hold him to a higher standard than a piece of crap.
I just expected more from him, especially based on his books.
You seriously think this kind of thing happens overnight?
Okay have a look at the work this guy “Moose on the Loose” has done, he has spent a ton of time digging into this and finding and linking data all back to Mark Carney and his “Blind Trust” https://x.com/dsimieritsch/status/1968058733449375822
Sure, just announce we are doubling exports. Anyone else noticing how Carney says stuff without any real detail on how he plans to do it? The CDN government has thousands of people for decades trying to increase exports abroad. We have little manufacturing left to export, so we’re turned into a mining based economy.
I’m pretty tired of politicians selling old ideas as new. We need some innovation.
I mean at the least it looks like we’re taking some steps to avoid the clusterfuck that the USMCA resigning is likely to be by getting ahead of it.
Its not hard to double exports to other countries when your main trading partner (US) stops taking your stuff. Talking out of my ass, but it seems like doubling exports to other countries wouldn’t be that hard when we wind up having a surplus because US trade dries up. Seems like it’d push prices of our goods lower and hurt Canadians, which is what he seems to be implying to me.
So, you are saying we sold all our possible exports to only the US?
Why should Europe import our lumber?
Carney is softening us up to the reality that tariffs will last as long as the US wants them to, and there is fuck all he can do about it.
Canada-indonesia free trade agreement: https://globalnews.ca/news/11449417/canada-indonesia-trade-agreement/
Canada-mexico trade agreement without USA: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cwy8r042nx2o
And we had new trade agreements with Europe under Biden.
There is nothing really new here.
The Indonesia agreement is great for Indonesia, but puts Canada in $600M trade deficits.
Both deals are a few percent of US trade.
Both deals are a few percent of US trade.
Every bit counts. I would like to see a future where we aren’t doing any business with the US.
The US is eating it’s own head and will probably fail in the near future. We need to be ready for that.
It’s true, i didn’t actually read the agreement.
As for the trade deficit, I’m not sure it matters to a great extent. When a rich country tades with a poorer country it is normal for the rich country to be able to afford more imports than the poorer country. However, the trade deal can still benefit the country with the trade deficit. Our raw materials and goods will still find new markets because they will be more affordable to indonesians, and canadian consumers will have indonesian goodss for cheaper. we have a relative advantage for certain high tech and biomedical stuff, so we might see job growth in areas that we are already strong in. I don’t care if my cheap manufactured goods are made abroad as long as other jobs are created. Alan Greenspan had an interesting take on trade deficits: i don’t have time to find the quote, but it is along the lines of “we give them dollars and they give us actual real-world goods - seems like a good deal.” Trade is not a zero sum game - it can provide an advantage to both sides, even when one side benefits more.
As for the deals being small compared to the us: there are no american-sized economies hidden under a rug or something. Carney can’t just make a new trading partner out of thin air. replacing US trade is a huge undertaking that will still be going when my children are dead of old age. Carney will not live long enough to fix everything, but it is wrong to say that he has done nothing.
This is a fair criticism. Canada needs investment. Path to actual export growth is investment from countries who would want to import from Canada, or investment that allows Canadians to invest to refine/value add to other investments. For an export strategy to work, we need to stop being on the wrong side of geopolitical hate, and be welcoming of investments from the part of the world that is growing, and can grow if free of US extortion.
In many (if not most) sectors the Canadians have already seen a substantial switch to exporting to other regions. That’s why they have not seen a substantive decrease in exports despite the US tariffs. There are several sectors that are being held back because of other trade issues that the government has the ability to resolve and they’ve already been making friendly with several countries they were already having a variety of trade or political conflicts with under the previous government (China/India for instance). So the current administration absolutely has the power to help with this shift, which is economically wise.
The details of how it gets accomplished are being released in early November with the budget.
Why wait until no one can assess the plan or the government falls.
Same bullshit as every other government.
How would you like it to go? This is how it is meant to go, politicians announce a goal and a vague direction they want to go in, then table bills with the details filled out, it undergoes several layers of public debate and then it gets voted on.
And how is that working out for Canada? Same old same old but apparently most of this thread lives in Ottawa. “public debate”. Hilarious.
What we get, ALWAYS, looks great on paper with a bunch of asterisks and caveats and most of the measures never happen because some metric was never met, all by design.
The decision of whether the government falls is, in large part, the way the assessment of the budget is expressed.
If we fail in implememting old ideas how are we going to succeed in innovation?
