Apparently Canada intends to become a province of Europe.

Canadian PM Mark Carney: It’s my strong personal view that the international order will be rebuilt — but it will be rebuilt out of Europe.

@ManyBeenRinsed @Myhandle44 Tell that person someone has been mining bitcoin on their grid. No way an EV will raise your hydro bill by $250
English
@Myhandle44 This is not true … I know someone who just paid $250 extra a month
English
It’s cute the amount of Canadians who bought expensive EV’s to fight high gas prices but didn’t realize their hydro bills at home would go up hundreds.

@DonaldPutine @EricLDaugh @DRIVETRUE8 Even if German tariffs went to 0, not a single person would buy American cars.
English
@EricLDaugh @DRIVETRUE8 Did you know that Germany tariffs American imported cars 29% and we don’t even tariff German cars that are imported into the United States. So of course, applying a 25% tariff should be fair game!
English
🚨 JUST IN: In a massive FAFO moment, President Trump is SLAPPING 25% tariffs on the European Union's cars and trucks after they failed to abide by the trade deal
Trump is going HARDBALL on the EU!
"It is fully understood and agreed that, if they produce Cars and Trucks in U.S.A. Plants, there will be NO TARIFF. Many Automobile and Truck Plants are currently under construction, with over 100 Billion Dollars being invested, A RECORD in the History of Car and Truck Manufacturing."
"These Plants, staffed with American Workers, will be opening soon — There has never been anything like what is happening in America today! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP"

@gator_gum “Not investment advice” and “do not invest” in the same post. Mario has outdone himself. He is living proof that you can be a retard and also be rich at the same time.

Carney is simultaneously a super genius secretly owning Brookfield and responsible for their growth and success, managed to get the entire setup to move, dodges taxes, and still manages to profit hugely even with a blind trust in place...
But also, a guy you shouldn't invest in.
Lol, pick a lane Mario.
Mario Zelaya@mario4thenorth
Not investment advice. Just my opinion: DO NOT INVEST YOUR AFTER-TAX DOLLARS in the government. They're already supposed to be doing that with your taxes. By definition, you've already invested. Remember, they are not hedge fund managers. They will not beat the market. They are politicians. Not very good ones either. What makes you think they will ever beat the market? And give you a better return than the market? Never in my life, would I imaging a Prime Minister asking Canadians "if you have a bit of extra money, we'll make it easy for you to invest in the fund." That honestly scares me. The Minister of Finance admitted, they have no prospectus or ROI goals. We hold the private market, to higher standards than this, so why not our own government? My opinion: invest in the market via ETFs. You want to invest in Canada & think it'll show strong growth? XIU or ZIU Want to invest in other markets? SPY IVV QQQ VOO VOOG For context, Norway's Wealth Fund, which is highly sophisticated and extremely well managed, returned 15% in 2025. XIU did 29% - almost double of Norway's Wealth Fund. And you think, the Liberals will outperform Norway, with their Sovereign Debt Fund? And beat the market? I feel embarassed seeing our Prime Minister asking hard working Canadians to invest. No serious leader does this.

@mark_slapinski He is re-establishing the US as independent from British Imperialism. It is only rude if the assumption is that a US president should defer to a foriegn king. What do you think about that?
English
Trump is an embarrassment to the United States
Look at this DISRESPECTUL behaviour

@DamianA166007 @KirkLubimov Pulled that number right out of your ass didn’t ya
English
@KirkLubimov Debt is much larger than that. You are just looking at one layer. Canada had 300% of GDP in total non-financial sector debt. 3rd most indebted nation in the world
English
Re: Canada's Sovereign Wealth Fund, Canada Strong Fund.
It's important to understand.
Canada's government runs a deficit and has over $1.3T in debt, costing taxpayers over $50B per year just in interest. It isn't being paid down. It grows.
Doesn't matter how you spin it or identify it. The $25B in funding for Canada Strong Fund comes from debt.
This debt will have an interest carrying cost + operational cost, together around 4%. That's the hurdle rate.
In other words, the fund will lose 4% every year, and to generate a positive return, it will have to come above that rate.
This is the fundamental risk of borrowing to invest.
English
@gator_gum I’ve blocked him and all of his friends on this platform. I hope others do it too. It very much looks like they would sell their own mothers in exchange for some engagement.
English
@KirkLubimov So it is in everyone’s best interest to maintain th status quo. Why doesn’t the orange turd get it?

A couple points on the CUSMA review between Canada and the US:
The mandatory joint review 'deadline' is on July 1, 2026 but it will most likely continue beyond then.
Canceling the FTA isn't as simple people think. A withdrawal notice is a 6 month notice period.
If the parties don't agree to a full 16 year extension, it is then reviewed yearly until 2036.
The US Midterm Elections are on November 3, 2026 and without a doubt, tariffs and CUSMA will be a topic as members from sides voted and expressed that they are not in favour of tariffing Canada and how important the trade deal is.
The Canadian strategy is to get as close as possible to these Midterm Elections, especially with the 6 month grace period.
It will take the negotiations from campaigning hardliners and posturing to cooler heads prevail. This has been Canada's negotiation strategy many times.
The results of the Midterms can favour Canada as well, and this is also part of the strategy.
It is clear that some things will change but it doesn't mean that the new CUSMA won't benefit Canada more, thus the US, especially with critical minerals addition and value added manufacturing.
The biggest risk is the uncertainty that will be created for investment capital decisions into Canada without a clear extention.

@MarcPatrone It is a question of morality. Most Americans do not agree with how the president has treated his America’s allies.
English
Note for the elbows up crowd who think our US liquor ban is a winner....90 per cent of Canada’s alcoholic beverages are shipped to the US. Canada exported ~$1.36 billion in alcoholic beverages overall in 2023. If the Americans decide to mirror our ban on their products - how do you think that's going to play out?
English
@ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport Because it costs a fraction and every company on earth does it. There ain’t a damn thing you can do about it. Like it or not that’s the reality.

Excuse me @TELUS
@TELUSsupport
Why do you outsource your call center jobs to India?
You're a Canadian company!
Why are you not hiring Canadians to do this job?
Why am I getting calls from a call center in India about my account?
There are more than enough Canadians looking for work
I will not accept calls from some call center in India about my service!

@haseebt361 @osintspectator Maybe ask this questions who launched it
English
@osintspectator The range of Fatah 1 missile is 120 km . how fatah 1 fired toward Dehli if it doesn't match the distance. Indian always caught red handed.
English
🇵🇰🚀🇮🇳 Pakistan tried to hit Delhi on 10 May early morning during Operation Sindoor and fired Fatah-1 missile. India's Barak-8 air defence system intercepted it over Sirsa. After that what happened, everyone knows.

@Bratt_world @DeanHorninaq Don’t you know? They have concepts of a plan
English
@DeanHorninaq You want 1.4 million people to follow a leaderless movement into a new country with no post referendum plan ????

@Harry__Faulkner How very eloquent. Maybe bother reading the article next time so that we can have an actual conversation.

Which one of these Chelsea managers should never of been sacked?
English
@YanitedManu @FabrizioRomano Something tells me he will do just fine

@FabrizioRomano Chelsea fans celebrating this news are horrible people. What do you expect his wife and kids to feed on now???

🚨 BREAKING: Chelsea have decided to SACK Liam Rosenior with immediate effect.
It’s OVER after 4 months, and 5 consecutive defeats with 0 goals scored. ❌
English
@willreyner And then you wake up from your dream and realize how fucked we are
English
Eghbali fires every member of the sporting director team.
Comes out in public and admits he gets it wrong and that we’re changing plan.
Hires an established sporting director and BE gives up his control over football matters.
We hire a proven manager.
Sign proven players.
The only way I can see Chelsea surviving. Unfortunately never gonna happen.
