PM Mark Carney vows to win trade war with Trump

[Edgetho]

Folks on the northern border of the US are the only ones that have ever heard of them.

First time I've heard of them and I visit Michigan yearly.

Canada just needs to play nice. If we want to break bad with them, we have ten times their GDP. We could crush them economically if we wanted to.

I'm not saying that OMB is a nice guy. He's not. He's an asshole but he's OUR asshole and he feels, rightly, that Canada (and many others) are taking advantage of our trade policies.

And he wants it to stop. Now.

In the old days, we'd allow Countries to take advantage of us on purpose. Japan, for instance. Their economy was fighting to emerge from being devastated by WW2. So we allowed them to virtually block imports of American Cars while we allowed their exported cars to flood our markets.

It was okay at the time. But when Japan recovered and became an international powerhouse (BIGLY) the restrictions stayed in place.

Same with Canada, same with Germany, same with all these countries where we allowed them to have an advantage in trade tariffs.

Times have changed and we need to stop supporting them. Canada doesn't want to give up its advantage and I don't blame them.

But they need to wake up. They really don't want to piss the USA off. It could get ugly.

That's a shame. I'm not big on promoting niche foods but if you enjoy chips, ketchup is a nice, rich flavour.

What better option is there? Smokey Bacon? Dill Pickle?

It's not like they lack back bacon, molson-coors and ice wine. Canada will be fine, so long as they don't need armed forces.

How about potato chip flavored potato chips? I've tried the K-flavored chips and I don't like them anymore than any other flavored chip.

Canada is back and strong! We are going to win this trade war because Mark Carney promised he would. We've got all the cards, right?

In Carney we trust!

Mark Carney: Canada's next PM vows to win trade war with Trump

The 59-year-old political newcomer says he will keep tariffs on US imports "until the Americans show us respect".

www.bbc.com

Mark Carney has won the race to succeed Justin Trudeau as Canada's prime minister, vowing to win the trade war with the US and President Donald Trump.

The former governor of the Canadian central bank and Bank of England beat three rivals in the Liberal Party's leadership contest in a landslide.

In much of his victory speech, Carney, 59, attacked Trump, who has imposed tariffs on Canada and said he wants to make the country the 51st US state. "Americans should make no mistake," he said. "In trade, as in hockey, Canada will win."

Carney is expected to be sworn in the coming days and will lead the Liberals in the next general election, which could be called in the coming weeks.

You just invited the WEF to control every move you make. The central bank and the Bank of England? OMG. Prepare yourself for CBDC. It will crush every liberty you think you still have.
If you think the government overreach was bad before, you just voted for Canada's demise. The USA is the least of your problems.

From your new masters:

Welcome to the year 2030. Welcome to my city — or should I say, “our city”. I don’t own anything. I don’t own a car. I don’t own a house. I don’t own any appliances or any clothes.
It might seem odd to you, but it makes perfect sense for us in this city.

Canada is back and strong

Canada will be as strong as the WEF allows. They are already starting the 15-minute constant surveillance cities. And you embrace it. That isn't strength. That is surrender...

The trade mess the US finds itself in is by it's own doing, but it feels everyone else is in the wrong

Get it wrong with one country, ok. Get it wrong with another country, hmm, not learning from the first mistake. To blame every country, which idiots in the US have been running the trade show over the decades? Go and sit down with countries and renegotiate trade agreements, stop spitting the dummy (pacifier) out with knee jerk tariffs.

The whole idea of the Tariffs is to get them to the table.

So Trump asked to renegotiate, they declined, so he's upped tariffs?

 

[Edgetho]

So Trump asked to renegotiate, they declined, so he's upped tariffs?

Yup. He's just using the other bullshit as an excuse

 

[jc456]

So Trump asked to renegotiate, they declined, so he's upped tariffs?

Indeed. Make it 200%

There is no trade war. This is just another problem the buffoon created for a distraction while he and elon raid the treasury, weaken the USA, and try to eliminate all oversight.

For what?

You’re so simple minded. Stop interfering in America

 

[Edgetho]

For what?

For a Pinochle game??

 

[BluesLegend]

Canada traded one cuck for another cuck

Carney already FAFO

When we call someone a 'carney' in the U.S. it has a different meaning.

 

[X.Onasis]

Every Republican screaming for judges to be impeached because they are blocking Trump's illegal power grab were awfully quiet when we learned about billionaires handing out gifts to Supreme Court justices — who then ruled on cases despite major conflicts of interest.

No one said there was one?
