I mean I know our president tarriffed Canada, said without us Canada wouldn't have a viable future, and said how much better things would be for their people if Canada was a state...... but they didn't have to boo our anthem.

The last hashtag made the above post redeemable.

Elon essentially has four hackers with no government clearance given full reign to do whatever they want with our nations' payment systems.

I guess by "Golden Age" he meant you better have some gold if you want to live in this age, because shit is about to get expensive.

One of the worst movies I've ever seen was "Live Free or Die Hard". It was the story of an impotent tech loser who hacked a bunch of systems like traffic control, electric grid and air traffic control as a distraction while they broke into the Social Security Admin to steal every American's info. I hated the movie because every tech item was presented so dramatically unrealistic.

Turns out the most unrealistic part is the impotent tech loser needing to create any distractions at all as long as he owns the correct ped0 and had access to the foreign government who has the info on said ped0. They would just give him the keys.

Every authoritarian regime eventually turns on even it's richest enablers. I just hope it happens soon.

This is a good post, my friend, but you could have just said Justin Long is a terrible actor and left it at that

It's just exhausting at this point - Having a trade deficit isn't a good thing or a bad thing, it just indicates the amount of goods you import versus the amount of goods you export. So the States import more goods from Canada then they export to us, big deal, all it shows is that you have the money to pay for these goods (having money generally is a good thing).

As for fentanyl, 19kg came in from Canada. 9600kg came in from Mexico. To say it's the same situation is Trump-level thinking all right.

Yeah a trade deficit can actually mean your economy has very strong consumer purchasing power and economic growth.

Too bad the orange shit stain hears only the word deficit and thinks it is bad.

Just like the term “Black Friday” and we all know why he thinks that is bad.

Meanwhile, going into into Canada from the US, Canadian border control seized (2023-2024):

23 tonnes of cannabis
3 tonnes of cocaine
1 kg fentanyl
1.7 tonnes other opioids
45 tonnes other drugs
874 guns.

Canada Border Services Agency enforcement action statistics

CBSA facilitates legitimate travel and trade entering Canada; we keep inadmissible goods and people from entering Canada and we remove inadmissible persons from Canada.

Numbers look worse so far in 2024-2025.

This tweet sums up my initial, and current, thoughts on "controlling" the border.


Now if Trump wants to talk about how we're too lax in allowing dealdy firearms flowing into Canada from the US, I'm onboard for that conversation.
