That's a real shame!

I watched a video by the Canadian independent journalist Rebel News. It was explaining how Carney, while head of a billion dollar investment company, became probably the biggest tax avoidance professional in Canada. The company has a house in the Isle of Man, registered as it's head office for tax reasons. 

He is obviously good at shifting money around via legal loopholes, but totally unethical if you car for your country!

This is the link for Carney's tax avoidance.

if you elected another leftist that will follow in the past footsteps you are screwed , i get it there are too many inner city tytpes that live off the public ...but eventually there wll cxome a time when we have bled off all wer can from the taxpayers , they will die off and those in the cities will starve , in my mind cant happen too soon , the urbanites need to learn what it means to do without , we all know 

interesting that im hearing here that your conservative want to look to canada first - similar to our current status , maybe there is hope for free trade , closed boarders and or open boarders with the mutual understanding we need each other , 

Zed, Liberals and Democrats are great at preaching about people needing to "pay their fair share!", not so great at heeding their own remonstrations though.

^^^ THIS there are actual (but unofficial) "SHARIA POLICE" units.

My reaction is Shariah is Muslim Holy Law. I'm not Muslim. It doesn't apply to me. But many aren't that bold.

That's the $26,000 question, isn't it Honk?  If Carney wants Canada to cozy up to China more than it already has there could be some pretty serious repercussions, especially in regards to defense.  The U.S. only sells it's latest and greatest equipment to countries that it trusts to not share our technology with our enemies. It's entirely possible that Carney won't have to back out of the F35 contract, the U.S. may refuse to sell them to Canada.  The problems for Canada could go even deeper than that.  Currently the RCN only has one oiler, the MV Asterix which with its partially civilian crew is forbidden to go into war zones.  Canada's two new oilers, the Protecteur class aren't in service yet so Canadian warships do UNREP with American auxilliary vessels.  I could quite easily see President Trump ordering the U.S. Navy to stop replenishing Canadian warships at sea.  It was only just recently that Australia purchased 400 of our top of the line AIM 120C an AIM 120D missiles for their aircraft and $7 Billion dollars worth of Standard missiles for their warships.  Canadian warships, other than the main deck gun utilize all American designed and manufactured weapons and weapon systems.  Unless they want to throw spitballs at the enemy Canada needs to negotiate the trade war with the U.S. very carefully.

Suppose the SHTF and the world is at war again.  Canada could have all it's spare parts and consumables replaced very quickly from America's vast and secure armament factories next door or Canada could get its equipment via a long, tenuous supply line from northern Europe's vulnerable factories.  

Hubris should not interfere with a country's security.

Its a game he plays.

Come up with a terrible first offer.

Work it till it busts.

Now make a slightly less ridiculous second offer.

The other party negotiates that down.

You accept.

The Other party is pleased they got you to do the deal on their terms.

You walk away smiling because its 15% more than you actually wanted!

butter at 313+% 

other items as well and some as high as that or just under , 

peanut butter at 295% 

chicken cuts at 295% 

chicken eggs at at 241% 

turkey cuts at 238%

barley at 04..5% 

beef at 25.5% 

wheat seed at 41% 

wheat products at 78.5% 

sugar at 265% 

those are outrageous and there is a long list , trump is simply saying fair trade is fair , get rid of your tariffs we drom purs , the playing field has not been levcel for a long time if ever , he wants it to be fair and i dont think he is out of line , 

i get the protective nature of your government for certain sectors - ours [here in this state] do the same but our taxes subsidize that , not tariffs , i think itsa wrong and i object but ive not movesd so i pay those taxes so far , that may change soon , 

thats interesting about their mortgage situation , i didnt know all that , we have a major issue to deal with in terms of our student loan crisis , waiting to see how trump deals with that mess
