Makes no difference how they negotiate ... the powers will always want more taxes to fatten the economic leaners because they believe they are badly positioned in the winning curve that eventually has a turn down ... Kroeger-Ross ...

These positions are like "gare" ... just a franc pose or station that will collapse when tested ... physical things cannot stand up to the mental emotional thrashing ... as the stations of the cross ... at junctions there are more chances for train recks and fugitives ... a bit fuggy! OEggs ... sometimes stacked ...

With prescient view you might grasp the sense of omni vision ... coming together in focus ... monovision? What way it out ... of this gravid spot ... that may prove to be a smear ... quanta? There lost them completely ... they fell behind in the comprehensive ET UDe ...

Always expect ups and downs due to logi ... and the wiggles. Whetted appetites ... for alien concerns ... Ani' sit ... (that's something else).

Bottom lye 'n? Plotted and laid out ... as scheme ... complexity in a cat ...

Ignoring the Warning Signs: Why Did the Canadian Government Dismiss the Trade Risks of a Digital Services Tax? - Michael Geist

U.S. President Donald Trump announced yesterday that he was suspending trade negotiations with Canada due to the imminent implementation of the digital services tax (DST). The result could be increased tariffs on Canadian products and a stalemate on many of the current trade battles between the...

Canada rescinds digital services tax to advance broader trade negotiations with the United States - Canada.ca

The DST was announced in 2020 to address the fact that many large technology companies operating in Canada may not otherwise pay tax on revenues generated from Canadians. Canada’s preference has always been a multilateral agreement related to digital services taxation. While Canada was working...

Is pragmatic a useful stoppage? Like Bung when shutting down the whines ... do not say it ... instead write it!

The powers hate readers ... ask POTUS! There is this opinion that most of humanity is not right to his observations and must go ... in which case ... why would he worry the marketplace so? There will be none when he completes his cycle ...

The market does not agree with him or otherwise! Recall if you cannot make a rational statement ... tell a grand story.

I do believe we've been here before ...
 
Not that I LIKE the decision -- the Tax was a beautiful attempt at dealing with powerful monied entities that is making life very difficult for most on Earth

Also I remember Mark Carney saying in a video he considers Global Warming an existential threat

Now it seems he, like all intelligent people, has modified his claims as new data comes in?

The whole cabron tax thing and being positive aboot fossil fuels...

So good to see a pragmatist

(or in another container: a nefarious plotter mua ha ha)

Enjoy the rain, folx

Thank Carney

Anyone who doubts global warming, come spend a week right now here in Korea :LOL:
 
When all people are deleted from the earth ... will there be comprehension of Global Warming?

Thus it is excellent to eliminate knowledge etc. stupid is good ... get emotional ... it drives out logic ...

People must go --- Trump! How did almost 30% come to believe this ... vacancy of mind, soul, psyche complex? It isn't simple ...

Yet eh loves simple ...
 
Has he accomplished anything yet? Anything good?

I just read his latest psa “As we build stronger and faster, we will build Canadian.” Sounds jingoistic at worst, cringingly nationalistic at best (I’m not used to this in my lifetime and I’m not comfortable with it) - all I see is a dizzying back and forth about tariffs - is he appeasing Trump? Is he standing up to him? Hard to tell. And, First Nations upset because he neglected to consult them on pipeline projects - he’s busy trying to save face with them after the fact. I don’t see the needle moving on anything we desperately need to have happen. Can anyone can fill me in, if I’m missing anything notably helpful?

Canada is dropping food to the starving in Gaza alongside France and the UK.
Canada right now has enormous respect in the world.
I see Carney laying groundwork to invest in trade with other nations.
Personally I'm not a fan of the pipeline...I'd like us to focus more on clean energy.
Trump is going to bury himself with the tariffs and is losing respect even from those who supported him.....Canadians may suffer from this, but it seems Carny may have stepped back as Trump's own Tariffs start doing the damage to his own nation that he was warned about.
 
Real life is bafflingly sophisticated and thus the undercurrent provided by those below a horizon of certainty ... the twinned creature is flippant ...

I think gas is here to stay for now and transporting by pipeline is cleaner than using trains or ships so, yeah, build the pipeline. If the US goes all in on ending the push to EVs, we'll have to follow suit given the big manufacturers tend to treat North America as a single market (e.g. the Honda plant in Alliston ships Civics to both sides of the border). They aren't going to fuss too much about our market when the US car market is 10x or more bigger. If we push on stricter rules, they'll just move production which is exactly what Trump is trying to achieve with the tariffs.

That said, I imagine some blue states will try to keep things moving on the environmental front down there, though (hopefully). California for sure given they have long had stricter pollution rules than the rest of the US. Trump will, of course, try to force them to follow his rules but Newsom seems to be girding for a fight with Washington on several fronts (e.g. the alliance with other West Coast states to keep their vaccine regimes in place).
