I think many people hate Trump so much that they are totally blind to many of the issues facing Canada. Trump is such a lightning rod of hate that Trump Trump Trump is what is on people's brains.

The list is from the Biden administration. Same issues that Trump brought up. So the liberals had over half a decade to address this and it took the threat of a tariff for them to take any action at the expense of our economy. Pathetic.
And what did Biden do? Fuck All. Or at least negotiated in good faith behind closed doors. Because you don't take points of negotiation and threaten to blow up the economy or annex your neighbour ally for petty personal grievences.

Biden doubled the tariffs on lumbar and threatened Canada on the DST. They were going to legally challenge it, which is exactly what the Trump administration continued to do. Did Canada hit their 2% of GDP commitment towards NATO or was Canada just being a free-rider?

Article from 2024:

Canada and other countries that are laggards when it comes to military spending should hit the NATO-imposed target of spending two per cent of GDP "as rapidly as humanly possible," U.S. President Joe Biden's national security adviser told reporters on the sidelines of the Liberal cabinet retreat in Halifax on Sunday.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/can...ivan-1.7304665

The liberals had all this time to resolve many issues diplomatically but instead sat on their hands. What has the liberal government done in the past few years to negotiate in good faith? It seems like they were passive and let the shit hit the fan.

Ven3real: I hate the Libs, change my mind bra

Ven3real: I don’t care what deals other countries got I only care what Canada gets relevant information or comparison points can fuck thenselves

Ven3real: Anything less than a win Carney is a failure

Ven3real: I don’t care if no country is “winning” a deal with the USA, still failure!

Why you even wasting your time analyzing, could bet your poopoo colour LandCruiser on you being disappointed with the results at zero risk for yourself it’s literally a sure thing. We get it, you hate Carney and you hate Liberals no matter what or maybe you just hate Carney because he’s in the Liberal party? That part is slightly unclear. We get it. You can stop pretending it’s anything else. Good work. You can rest now big … man? No more seething, be peaceful.

Is everyone still standing with Ukraine?

There's no way to even vote Zelensky out. I like the quote that he has broad approval!

Well... even if everyone hated him, there's no opposition party.

Then, when you look into his background.... well... things become obvious, don't they?

Isn’t what he did good though? If your population disagrees, and you listen, that’s something I’d want in a leader. A girl just started here at work whose father was just killed in Ukraine. She arrived here a few months ago. Kinda puts Canadian issues in perspective if they weren’t there already.

It isn't like they have a choice, who can they vote for?

LMAO. You're a dork. No one believes you talk like that.

You're a fat Asian woman who supposedly works in finance, or a troll pretending to be one. The only "mandems" you know are the ones that stuffed you into lockers in high school.

Peak loser mentality.

bro, this is exactly the type of low energy and vibes i expect from a carney supporter losing an argument.

Stats Canada just released data that showed Canada's economy contracted in May. It just highlights how inaction from this liberal government is hurting our economy. As growth worsens in the near-term, it leads to lower revenue and countercyclical spending pressures. Carney's inaction cultivated two bad scenarios; either Canada will accept a deal with Trump to achieve economic certainty that both markets and investors crave, or he can prolong the negotiations and let the economy in Canada slide into a recession. The liberals have truly entered a lose-lose phase that could have been negated by negotiating much earlier.
