The extraction of the US economy is over. If a country can't survive without US subsidy or support then they shouldn't. This goes for any and every country

Every year, LCBO sells nearly $1 billion worth of American wine, beer, spirits and seltzers. Not anymore. Starting Tuesday, we’re removing American products from LCBO shelves. As the only wholesaler of alcohol in the province, LCBO will also remove American products from its catalogue so other Ontario-based restaurants and retailers can’t order or restock U.S. products. There’s never been a better time to choose an amazing Ontario-made or Canadian-made product. As always, please drink responsibly.

EXCLUSIVE: CANADIANS CALLING ARENAS DEMANDING THEY TAKE DOWN THE AMERICAN FLAG – SOURCES

Pictures can say a thousand words. Here’s a quick thread on dividends, as told by Granny Smith.

It’s quite amazing that everyone is now saying the quiet part out loud. The distortions when you have insider information are extreme and Congress should not be allowed to insider trade. They should live by the same rules as the voting public. For example, prior to October 2000, the general public could effectively insider trade if they knew someone with inside information. Then the USG implemented Reg FD that said companies cannot share information with only a few - they must fairly and broadly disclose information to everyone. This principle still doesn’t apply to Congress. What was the impact of Reg FD? Or said differently, how valuable is a world without RegFD where you can get all manner of information and trade on it? Pre Reg FD (October 2000), Warren Buffets returns averaged 24%. Post Reg FD (October 2000), Warren Buffets returns averaged HALF of that or 10-12%. So disclosure is worth 10-12% per year - an enormous advantage to those that can act on any information that crosses their desk.
