Textbook fascism:

“If you make [Trump] unhappy, he responds unhappy”.

Unbelievable. The US president makes those important decisions just because he’s “unhappy”?! For God sake...

"Les USA dépendent en partie du pétrole canadien": oui et non. Le diable est dans les détails. Depuis 2020, les USA sont un exportateur net de produits pétroliers.

A great classic by Martin A. Schwartz (2008): “The importance of stupidity in scientific research”:

“Productive stupidity means being ignorant by choice. Focusing on important questions puts us in the awkward position of being ignorant.”

Mes sources bien informées au Vatican m’indiquent que la Vierge à Fátima n’aurait pas dit aux enfants «Pauvre Canada!» mais bien: «Pauvre USA!»

Surely the worst economic move from a US government since decades, if not since WWII. Hang on, American friends, Trump is your enemy, not your ally.

“we are considering additional measures, such as having a designated chaperone vehicle travel with school buses. In the event that a student is detained, a school administrator in the chaperone vehicle would be able to stay with the student”

So many Canadians want to boycott US products to harm the United States’ economy? US Exports to Canada weigh 1,8% of its economy. Good luck.

(Table: 15 most exported US products to Canada, 75% of the total.)

La hausse de la valeur du USD est déjà commencée (+1% cette semaine), ce qui diminuera l'impact des tarifs US sur l'économie canadienne. Respirons par le nez.
