Just don’t make the same mistake Australia did. Keep everything Canadian-owned and tax the crap out of LNG extraction and export - avoid your own Woodside moment.

Who the hell is still buying Teslas?

What ever happened to the #TeslaTakedown? Some boycott effort that was. 🙄

Beware - you have been warned.

Most of the Australian MSM, along with the Libs, Nats and ON, operate as if their entire audience is based in Kentucky.

So far removed from reality.

Economic conditions, education (or lack thereof), patterns of media consumption, religion, culture, peer group, other socialisation factors - the list goes on!

The only time Scott Morrison ever made me smile was when he referred to this bloke as “Minister k-Hunt”!

“No evidence of price gouging,” yet fails to acknowledge the oligarchical structure of virtually every market sector in Australia!

It was also revealed that US MAGA leader Donald Trump may be planning to seize all of Canada and Greenland.

Pot, meet kettle.

Follow the money!

It’s the US corporations who wield outsized economic power and cultural influence who are the problem. Can you escape their sway? I know I can’t! 🙂

Trump is merely a figurehead - a pawn, an embodiment of a charade. Once his usefulness starts to fade, look out for his deposition.

I used to use the Microsoft Office desktop version, but I’ve since ditched it for LibreOffice. No issues - it’s been great.

Microsoft 365 might be decent for collaboration, but man, is it ever terrible for formatting!
