The real number if probably double this percentage.

This is why the tariff would sink Canada, especially Ontario. Our Premier is spending millions in ads to persuade America, but it's just a matter of time. Since we destroy and discourage the best and brightest, we don't innovate. We rely on other nations to do it for us. It has made us weak and dependent and even a 10% tariff would crush Ontario overnight. Already a company in Taiwan withdrew a $1B project.





Meanwhile, the economy added 51,000 jobs in November, with employment gains concentrated in full-time work.


The labour force participation rate, which reflects the proportion of working-age people who are employed or looking for work, rose by 0.3 percentage points last month.


The Bank of Canada will have its eye on Friday’s job report as it gears up for its interest rate announcement on Wednesday.


Forecasters are widely expecting the central bank to deliver another interest rate cut, though there hasn’t been consensus on the size of that reduction.


High interest rates have cooled the labour market significantly over the last year.


For unemployed Canadians, that’s meant longer periods without work.

You're going to look back and miss Biden and WISH Kamala was POTUS now.

Don't unemployed Canadians still have healthcare while they are out of work? Must be nice.

Biden did an amazing job getting us out of inflation. If you remember the 80's, 20% interest rates to get us out of it, Biden got us out with relatively no pain. You want to blame housing prices on him? Blame him for our illegal immigration problem we've had for decades? Think Trump's going to do better with the economy?

People who normally would vote Democratic said "I just think Trump will do better with the economy".

I disagree, but how can I argue the future and what they believe? Do i start reminding him that he goes bankrupt, cheats at taxes, breaks laws, doesn't pay workers, has discriminated against blacks, etc. Do I try to educate them when they should and probably do already know all this? Still they think "HE WILL DO BETTER??"

I can't believe they believe that, but they do. And DESPITE all the other shit. I can't believe it. Now I know how Hitler did it. Not saying Trump will be exactly like Hitler, but you know what I mean. Trump can do whatever he wants now. Include FUCK WITH his neighbors. Like, I don't know, let's say CANADA!!! And you argued for it. I bet a lot of rich Jews voted for Hitler too.
 
I'm seeing those ads on Fox News. They are excellent and moving. I love Canada, and vacation there often (just got back from Thunder Bay).

To the extent that the President has any influence on the economy, I trust someone who has run scores of businesses and is a Billionaire over two people - Biden & Harris - who have never had a real job between them.

And Honey-boo-boo, if you really believe the bullshit in your penultimate* paragraph, you truly need to wake the fuck up.

The general Canadian is a nice person. Naive and docile, but nice and friendly.

The Security Industrial Complex are the cowardly, creepy and corrupt ones. Their efforts have harmed us immensely and if your nation follow our tactics you might as well close up shop because your Constitution will as worthless as our Charter of Rights and Freedoms are.

Yea but Biden proved you need to know how to run government. He got us out of the pandemic. Trump mismanaged the pandemic. Shit the bed his first crisis.
Trump had 3 years no crisis'. Let's see if he doesn't cause a crisis again. Sounds like he's going to cause a recession and inflation with his tariffs and trade wars and running 10 million workers out all at once.

Trump was handed millions. And we aren't even really sure he's a billionaire. Is he? Didn't he get in trouble for over valuating his properties?

You trust Billionaires more than a Government run by We the People. What could possibly go wrong? Just ask the founders.

Trump is a business failure - 7 bankruptcies is the worst business record in history. And he crashed the economy.

Republicans keep telling Americans they’re better for business. They are not and have never been better for business.

They are better for OWNERS of businesses. The business owners do better under Republicans but the economy and the workers do not.

I don’t trust people who have been credibly accused of running scams and cons and bankruptcy schemes. I really don’t trust anyone who lies to me.
