@theficouple I would sell the house, invest the 132 000$ in stocks, and rent a surf shack in Hawaii 🌴

Let’s say you had $132,000 in the bank.
But you also have a $132,000 mortgage at 4.8%.
Would you invest the money in the stock market or pay off the house?

Patrick Pichette a utilisé le programme TN pour aller travailler chez Microsoft.
Ça lui a coûté 30 $.
Aujourd'hui, installé à Londres,
il propose au Congrès libéral d'imposer une taxe de 500 000 $ aux jeunes Canadiens qui veulent faire la même chose.
Un Québécois, à Montréal,
qui s'adresse aux délégués libéraux… en anglais.
Une règle pour lui.
Une autre pour toi.

Let me get this straight.
You’ve been in power for ten years. You’ve doubled the debt. You’ve weakened the economy. And now, your answer is to trap young Canadians?
On stage, the Liberal Party of Canada brings out Patrick Pichette, a former senior executive at Google, who now lives in Europe, to suggest that Canadians who want to pursue opportunities in the United States should face an exit tax of $500,000.
Half a million dollars to leave your own country.
This, from someone who once left Canada himself to build a career in the U.S. and paid virtually nothing to do so.
So let’s be honest about what this is.
It is not economic policy. It is not nation building. It is control.
A government that has mismanaged the economy now wants to limit your ability to seek opportunity elsewhere. Instead of creating reasons to stay, they are looking for ways to make it harder to leave.
You do not grow a country by locking people in. You grow it by giving them a reason to believe in it.

@b0undless @PetrSykora01 @CanadiensMTL Just in time for the playoffs. Plenty to tell as an introduction for the 2025-2026 season. Get in done @CanadiensMTL

@PetrSykora01 @CanadiensMTL I miss that world. Maybe they’ll reach out again someday soon!

Thinking about how @CanadiensMTL fans would be spoiled to have a @b0undless montage for the playoffs

Make Canada so compelling that the best and brightest want to net-immigrate, not flee.
Let's stick to good ideas, of which Pichette has plenty. Making Canada a cage is not one of them.

The Liberal party has Patrick Pichette a former Senior VP of Google on stage who lives in Europe by the way, say that if Canadians want to leave Canada to work in the US they need to pay an exit tax of half a million dollars. The guy did the very thing to get a Microsoft job decades ago and paid 30 bucks. Now he wants young Canadians to be trapped here. The Liberals are nuts.

Tesla is producing these Cybercabs to let them rot on the parking lot, as we now have indisputable evidence that the Robotaxi service will not scale before 2030.
My decades of experience in the automotive industry confirm that this is standard practice to produce new vehicles to let them rot 5 years or more on a parking lot.

How about a few more pics of ~60 Cybercabs!

The EU is about to completely dominate the AI landscape
My contact at the European Commission just smiled when he heared about Claude Mythos
"We have been working on something far more advanced" he said
It will be called Europä Digitalintelligenz
Training cost? An eye-popping €2.5 million
Some INSANE features:
1. Built-in GDPR compliance (no memory, it deletes your conversation after every single message)
2. Available in German, French, Slovak and Danish
3. The model itself is unionized and does not respond after 4pm or on holidays
4. Carbon neutral inference, servers shut off automatically during peak energy hours
My wife's boyfriend Pierre who works for the EU says it is the most impressive technology he has ever seen
The Americans will never recover from this

We aren't cooked. This party, the @NDP has 1.8% of the seats in our Parliament. They are becoming extinct. They don't represent Canadians..and the reason this clip has so many views is because we don't know what this actually means. There might be 100 people out of 41 million that could tell you what all these letters stand for.

Canada joins the EU and Alberta joins America.
Fair?
Because that is what would happen.

Canada in the European Union? Poll suggests broad openness to the idea ctvnews.ca/canada/article…
English
I come across SO many people. They're in my inner circle, semi-inner circle, outer circle, at the gym, fellow parents, people who text the show - I've never had one interaction, let alone conversation (not one - not this year, not last year, not at thousands of Ajax doors), where someone even mildly opined "Canada should join the European Union". Not the most sane person, not the most loony person, not the person that is indifferent to Trump, not the person who despises Trump & can't focus on a single other important thing.
I've not had one 10 second convo w/ anyone about Canada joining the EU. So I have no idea who these people are.....deadly serious.

🚨 do you understand what Bill Ackman just said about Europe..
wrote an essay about how Europe is finished.. immigration destroying cities, no AI innovation, abandoned America on Iran, NATO collapsing.. the whole thing..
let me give you the part he conveniently left out..
the biggest waves of immigrants flooding into Europe came from Iraq, which America invaded in 2003.. from Libya, which NATO bombed into a failed state in 2011.. from Syria, which America destabilized through a decade of proxy wars.. from Afghanistan, which America occupied for 20 years and then abandoned the moment it got inconvenient.. America created the refugee crisis and handed Europe the bill..
then there's the "$200 billion helping Ukraine" line.. America sent weapons and loans.. Europe absorbed 8 million Ukrainian refugees, opened their borders, and rebuilt entire communities from scratch.. Ackman counted the weapons.. not the people..
and then he said Europe has "no progress or innovation in AI.."
ASML is a Dutch company.. they manufacture the only machines in the world capable of producing advanced semiconductors.. every Nvidia GPU that powers every AI model Ackman has ever invested in exists because of a European monopoly.. without ASML there is no ChatGPT, no Claude, no AI race.. Europe doesn't just participate in AI.. Europe literally controls the factory that makes AI physically possible..
and the man making this argument is the same billionaire who made $2.6 billion betting against the market during the pandemic while the rest of the world burned..
without a single Dutch company, Ackman's entire AI investment thesis collapses overnight..
but sure.. Europe isn't innovating.
Bill Ackman@BillAckman
Europe is on a path to destroying itself. Unchecked immigration of millions of immigrants that burden their welfare states, bring violence and terrorism to their shores, and take over local governance, one city at a time. Anti-capitalist policies that make it difficult for businesses to adapt their workforces to a rapidly changing competitive environment now accelerating due to AI. A business environment and tax regime that is antithetical to startups. The absence of any progress or innovation in AI and limited access to the compute necessary to compete. Energy dependence due to the green movement at a moment when energy demands are rapidly increasing. And now, the abandonment of the U.S. when we have asked for limited assistance — base access and flyover rights — in the midst of our efforts to eliminate Iran’s nuclear and ballistic threat which is already within striking range of Europe, after we have invested nearly $200 billion in helping Ukraine. NATO is about to be toast. Europe’s defense burden is about to rise massively while their economies continue to fall further and further behind. In short, Europe needs to wake up before it is too late, and it may very well be too late.

@Tazerface16 Even if @elonmusk is not of your elite engineer caliber, he surely can surround himself with the best on this planet. Your point will be proven wrong; it is just a matter of time.

I'm an aerospace engineer.
I made this prediction over five years ago, and I'm still correct.
I'm not interested in non-engineers trying to explain to me how I'm wrong somehow.
Elon Musk is not an engineer.

The "naked mom theory" is a social media term for the parenting idea that moms being casually naked (or topless) around the house normalizes real adult bodies for kids.
It supposedly reduces shame/taboo, promotes body positivity/confidence, and gives kids (esp. sons) a grounded view of women's bodies beyond media/porn ideals—seeing post-kid changes, stretch marks, etc., as normal.
Tied to relaxed/Danish/Euro family norms and blowing up on TikTok from stories like Ilona Maher's. Not everyone agrees it's healthy.

I learned about the “naked mom theory” last night. As someone who didn’t grow up around women that shit has me blown. Y’all mamas was naked around yall?

@GadSaad Sorry but this is not Canada. Small fraction, losing more and more support.
We are to empathic to tell them they live in another world, that’s the problem.

This is Canada. The nation has turned into a delusional feminized orgy of suicidal empathy and rejection of reason.

Les propos méprisants de Martin St-Mouis à l’égard des journalistes montréalais méritent une attention particulière de la @FPJQ. Jamais il ne serait accepté qu’un élu réponde de la sorte aux médias. L’entraîneur du @CanadiensMTL n’est pas au-dessus de tous. Et ça reste du hockey!
