Trump became President and I decided to start the process to get guns.

ADDITIONAL 25% Tariff, to 50%, on all STEEL and ALUMINUM COMING INTO THE UNITED STATES FROM CANADA,

My company:

Has two shops 1 in Canada and 1 in the US; US shop now solely handles all American related jobs while Canada handles any job globally, besides the US.

Real smart play here ol trump

"Let's kill all the jobs now for a few new kinds of jobs that probably won't come to fruition" -Trump, American genius.

He's gonna fucking invade, isn't he?

The National Post is a US billionaire owned right wing propaganda rag that most Canadians wouldn't wipe their ass with. If they're saying this it's a warning that should be heeded.

We are a large, rugged country with huge areas to hide in full of large rugged people with guns.

Looks like. All the signs are there and steps have been taken in preparation. The forcing of Canadians to register and get finger printed in the next 30 days was the icing on the cake. Now we wait and see how this unfolds.

He clearly wants Canada, but it's not clear he wants it that bad. If he thinks more expensive electricity is a nasty move he's probably not too hot about stuff and people blowing up.

I suspect the next few months will be a lot like the past one for Canada. Not better or worse.

Honestly, Canada should shut down their border to the US period… I wish this could happen, but I feel it is unrealistic.

[–] imvii@lemmy.ca 7 points 14 hours ago

I'm for it. It will hurt, but we'll manage.

Won't someone assassinate this senile fat fuck?

We like our women with bodily autonomy and with the right to choose.

We like our right to protest without the fear of being jailed and deported.

We like our heads of state to be respectful and respected on the world stage.

We like our right to privacy without surveillance, and our civil servants free from Krasnov’s oligarchs.

Most importantly, we like our beer to be unshittified!

Sincerely,

The Canadians who haven't already fallen victim to your propaganda.

Might be time for a EU expansion

[–] Perhapsjustsniffit@lemmy.ca 32 points 18 hours ago

-We like our right to protest without the fear of being jailed and deported.

Maybe you should tell our universities, corporations and the RCMP about this.

So we charged them 25% more for our electricity and his response is to charge his own citizens 25% more??

Wow

[–] MacroCyclo@lemmy.ca 3 points 8 hours ago

He just really likes raising taxes.

[–] wampus@lemmy.ca 41 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago) (2 children)

Russia's objective isn't tariffs -- it's to splinter/decouple international coordination and cooperation amongst western nations.

So, yeah. The faster Trump can accelerate that, the happier his boss'll be.

Like the buy[local] type campaigns are most likely getting a bit of a bump from Russian propaganda agents -- even if they are 'real' sentiments to some extent too.

Bring it the fuck on yam tits. Lets fucking go. Send in your cultist freaks I can't wait to blow some yank limbs off.

80-year-old angsty teen... how can anyone take this man child seriously?

We don't want to be the 51st state. The idea repulses us, actually.

Elbows up, guys!

I will shortly be declaring a National Emergency on Electricity within the threatened area. This will allow the U.S to quickly do what has to be done to alleviate this abusive threat from Canada.

This shit is ominous. This demon is ready to invade and take control of the QuΓ©bec-Windsor corridor.

No one wants to be america. People want to be human beings that are able live as human beings. People don't want to be pawns to a machine that sucks humanity and souls from living bodies.

When is this fat fuck gonna get it through his head that we will never be a part of the US, and there's nothing he can do about it?

[–] Altrex@lemmy.world 9 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

This is the stupidest thing ever. If he really wants a 51st state then Puerto Rico is right there and wants to gain statehood.

[–] systemglitch@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago

He wants our resources, PR can't help there.

Is it really a "longtime tariff" when it was implemented a week ago? I guess when you have the memory of a goldfish...

[–] xthexder@l.sw0.com 15 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago) (1 children)

Lol at there no longer being a border problem. How exactly does this change ANYTHING about guns and fentanyl crossing between Canada and the US? And whatever immigration problems Trump is complaining about would be completely moot if suddenly the entire country are now forced to become US immigrants.

[–] BrazenSigilos@ttrpg.network 8 points 16 hours ago

Because in that syphilis riddled brain, the orange-blunder has had the brain-shart concept slip out of the diseased sections and into what passes for a consciousness, that by only having a state line, there is no border, and so he will have solved "the border crisis". This is not a rational human being we're dealing with, it's a geriatric puppet-dictator who very likely has some form of degenerative brain condition.

[–] Glide@lemmy.ca 18 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Trump is desperate to be a part of Canada, huh?

[–] Slayan@lemmy.ca 18 points 17 hours ago

Someone else said musk is prob forcing him to do it because he want to be the next president. Since he has canadian nationality he'll be able to gun for president.

Kinda crazy guess, but they are crazy so πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

I've never been so viscerally irritated in my life. ELBOWS UP
