Isn’t this bigger than the exact counter tariff %? Tell me if I am wrong but the way I perceive Chinese population : it won’t buy US stuff if it isn’t socially valued anymore. No need for tariff to convince Chinese people to prefer Chinese produce over American ones.

Can you develop that idea?

Boeing can’t compete in the civilian business and is too big to fail : solution is to give them subsidies in the form of military contact.

Yes but No

No country will put themselves in a strategically loosing situation willfully. The UK is militarily very intertwined with the US : An abrupt divorce with the US isn’t possible. Just like Ukraine’s European allies are still buying Russian gaz, many NATO allies will try to play both side and the smaller Canada essentially being abandoned to itself. Easier to organize a blockade with the Atlantic Ocean as a boarder after Canada is attacked and mostly lost. I say this painfully as a Canadian. Hopefully we have time to make it too expensive to attack us.

That’s perfect : we keep our dairy and they keep theirs.

This Alberta visit… it gives me the same feeling i got before Zelensky’s recent visit to the white house. Too good of a showmanship moment not to stir drama. Anybody else sharing my concerns?

I wish i could upvote you more than once!

Let me dream a bit :

The US, out of fear of not having manufacturing capacity within their border in the event of a potential war, alienate most other advanced economies with tariffs… Taiwan get tariffed on its chip and the result is Canada, Europe, Australia, Japan… all buying Taiwanese technology to build their own answer against big US technology corp.

Didn’t Trump just told everyone where to retaliate against his tariff for maximum pain in the US and on his priorities?

Those digital service taxes need to grow way higher!

Lets have a guillotine tax : after 1000x the average wealth you are taxed 1% of the wealth above that threshold yearly to avoid meeting with…

That means a growing business owner sells 1-2% of his stock yearly but still grow his wealth if the business likely grow 10%. The government fund education and health and new people can vote on those stocks.

Can you explain your choice to move from 1:1:1:1 equal volume template to this? I guess the St Germain and Chartreuse are sweet enough to replace a syrup and balance against the lime leaving you with a strong Tequila-Mezcal flavour. Do you loose the St-Germain under the other?

Do you have a link for those reviews of Tuta email?

I know nothing, but isn’t some pieces of Google software to be found on many sites that aren’t Google or YouTube?

Please come, it’s fun not to fight insurances companies and just prescribe what you consider is the best treatment without thinking too much about the capacity of the patient to fill the prescription.

I will boycott American product with a passion, but what’s a little brain drain between “friends”? Any other field with smart and motivated women we might be interested in?

Basically the realm of Tiki cocktail has few criteria (1)sour/involve citrus (2) complexity and (3) extra points for crashing ice with a hammer. it’s impossible not to be happy crushing ice!

Where is the preferred way to express gratitude through kind word and financial support.

For example, lemmy developers can be help through Patreon, but what % of the donations stays with Patreon?

You mean that if the bribe is interesting enough, the timeline can be arranged?

And then, “for national security,” Canada drop food imports and non essential medication from the US regardless of its Nafta 2.0 signature. Anyway the US made it clear that this trade deal isn’t binding. Other developed economies in Europe and Pacific will do the same as soon as they aren’t the first one to do so… So much winning and greatness in America.

I challenge every newbies to create 1-3 posts over the first 72 h here : what do you enjoy in social media usually? It doesn’t have to be perfectly new if it’s new on Lemmy: your favourite Reddit group isn’t represented here or silent for a while : show us a glimpse of what you like and see how much engagement you receive.

Canada will be picked on by the US anyway, we might as well defend our value. I don’t propose explicitly antagonizing the US administration directly today, but showing that we will speak up and fight back if someone step on our toes and act against our internet. Kindness and politeness isn’t a weakness, it’s our way of exhibiting strength until we can’t resolve things politely.
