@fordnation Why are you still posting on this anti-Canada, child-porn endorsing platform?
Please move to BlueSky or Threads, if you care about Canada as you say you wouldnt be here.

Make no mistake: China now has a foothold in the Canadian market and will use it to their full advantage at the expense of Canadian workers.
The federal government is inviting a flood of cheap made-in-China electric vehicles without any real guarantee of equal or immediate investments in Canada’s economy, auto sector or supply chain. Worse, by lowering tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles this lopsided deal risks closing the door on Canadian automakers to the American market, our largest export destination, which would hurt our economy and lead to job losses.
To fix this mess, Prime Minister Carney and the federal government need to urgently step up and support Ontario’s auto sector. That means making the sector more competitive by ending the electric vehicle mandate, harmonizing regulations with key trading partners and scrapping federal fees that do nothing but add thousands to the cost of making vehicles and chase away investments. Instead of importing made-in-China vehicles, the federal government needs to be focused on working with Ontario to bring investment and jobs to factory floors in Brampton, Oshawa, Ingersoll and across the province, where assembly lines are at risk or have already left the country.
Whether farmers or auto workers, Canadians expect and deserve a federal government that gives them every shot at success. I’m urging Prime Minister Carney to work with Ontario to strengthen Canada’s auto industry, not weaken it. Together, let’s protect Ontario and protect Canada.

@CityFredFire Can you guys please follow the lead of the @CityFredGov and of GNB and post on #BlueSky as well to keep more of the city informed?

Fredericton firefighters are working at a fire in Odell Park, and have deployed their wildland resources to investigate and attack the fire. We will update this status as information becomes available.

@midwestneil This being rated only 7.2 highlights one of problems in CVSS.
None of the vectors evaluate possibility of injury or loss of life into the severity. Those factors should heavily outweigh the "confidentiality" and chaning factors.
English
Turns out you can just hack any train in the USA and take control over the brakes. This is CVE-2025-1727 and it took me 12 years to get this published. This vulnerability is still not patched. Here's the story:

@davepl1968 Nah, I miss Blockbuster because I wish I could have this experience with my children

You don't miss Blockbuster. You miss being 20 years younger when you used to take a weekly trip with the family and then watch a movie together.

@thecaptain_nemo @YIMBYLAND I don't live there but need to assume the chain was rusted and unsafe. This is a safety device at the end of the day, it is not a decoration. The city could replace it with the same chain or a standard railing, and save probably $5M of taxpayer resources.
English
@YIMBYLAND even if someone preferred the railing, how could this possibly be anywhere near the top of the list of problems to devote resources to in SF?
probably cost like $50 million too
English
This would actually radicalize me.
This is cultural decline.
David Perell@david_perell
I grew up in San Francisco, walking with my family by the Golden Gate Bridge. I still remember the thick and iconic chain railing that gave the place a sense of distinctiveness. Now the chains are gone, and they've been replaced by a soulless metal railing that's colder than a hospital waiting room. I'm sure some bureaucrat somewhere justified it with a tidy spreadsheet, but they stripped away a little piece of San Francisco's soul in the process. This is how a culture loses its charm: slowly, quietly... one small decision at a time.
English
@IceSolst It looks to still be maintained.
Its honestly not as big a deal as people make it out to be. Anyone can do it, the steps are foolproof. And you learn a lot in the process. You could probably do it on a Saturday with a modern machine...

So, to clarify your point - you are saying that any larger country should be able to invade and takeover any other country they want, at any time, and the other country should just immediately surrender - is that it? Because that's exactly what you're insinuating.
Aggression can not be rewarded and can not be enabled. Ukraine is totally justified in fighting the invasion as long as they still have breath. If you can't understand that, then maybe its because you've never been invaded.
English
Elon thinks Zelensky and Zaluzhny went too far when they didn’t return to the negotiating table after it became clear that the war was unwinnable on the battlefield.
Instead, they kept drafting and shipping soldiers to the front line—knowing they couldn’t succeed. Countless lives then began being lost for no reason and Elon says we need empathy for the Ukrainian mothers.
I’m not this is fair. It’s possible Zelensky is such a fighter that he’s blinded and can’t see the obvious. That’s admirable in a weird way.
But enough, someone needs to end the pointless bloodshed. Ukraine is losing land by the day so there’s no reason to delay any more.
English
Russia went too far 3 years ago, now the Ukrainian government has gone too far.
Endless death in trenches is wrong and anyone who continues to push that lacks both empathy and a brain.

@elonmusk Would you like to clarify how you think Ukraine has “gone too far” in defending their own country?

@cyb3rops The answer to this question is often driven more by compliance than anything to do with security investigations or hunting.

President Trump is wrong - we will never be a 51st state. Canada is and always will be a proud, sovereign, independent nation.
These latest American threats of tariffs on our steel and aluminum industry deserve a response from this government.
The Canadian people are strong. Our workers deserve a champion that will fight for them, instead of rolling over and surrendering our country's true strengths like the Carney-Trudeau Liberals have done for years.

@RickCanada0 @EvanLSolomon So what you're saying is US CBP is incompetent?
Gotcha.
English
@EvanLSolomon 1.3 Billion over 6 years. 1% is the Fentanyl they actually confiscated crossing the border. How much to you suppose got through? Facts do matter here.
English
Hey. That’s just not the facts. Less than 1% of fentanyl coming to the US comes from Canada. And Canada just spent 1.3 billion on border security in December as a response. Facts matter here
CaptSchark@CaptSchark
@EvanLSolomon We asked as good neighbors for Canada to help stop the southerly flow of fentanyl into our country which is killing our people and ruining lives. Canada told us to fuck off. Who betrayed who?
English
@unusual_whales Canada and the US have no significant trade surplus, nor deficit. The trade is equal. Which means neither has leverage over the other. It's just going to be a needless amount of MAD.
English
Canada's Justin Trudeau has said that "the coming weeks will be difficult for Canadians," after Trump implemented 25% tariffs on Canada.
English
@Intrepid_Flow @wesblog @rand_longevity @unusual_whales Long term solution to what?
Do you realize that protectionism and tarrifs are a far left wing ideology?
English
@BlueTeamJK @wesblog @rand_longevity @unusual_whales I don’t understand why everyone is so short sighted about this. These same people that hate short term quarterly focused corporate greed are the same ones cheer on making short term solutions to “ease” the public from higher prices. Pain is necessary for a long term solution.
English
"If Donald Trump slaps 25% tariffs on Canadian goods, we must hit back—dollar for dollar—starting with 100% tariffs on all Tesla vehicles and U.S. wine, beer, and spirits," Canada's Chrystia Freeland has said.
English
@GuffyNicola I'm pretty sure it will... Ford doesn't tend to arse around
English
The absolute craziest aspect of this is that protectionism and restricting free trade, ** is a far-left ideology **
Anyone who is a true conservative should be absolutely freaking out about this and what the effects will be. You can already see it playing out in the market.
Meanwhile they're all lining up behind Trump.
It's total madness what's going on.
English
@BlueTeamJK @rand_longevity @unusual_whales I was referring more to changes that come from political negotiations between countries. For example, perhaps the US and Canada agree to make changes to border policies in order to end the trade war.
English
This is the kind of idiot comment that shows people have no clue how tarrifs work.
Tarrifs are a direcy tax ON THE US MARKET. Prices in Canada will stay the same, because WE aren't taxing Mexico and China and everywhere else we source food from. And we won't tarrif US food either.
Net effect, WE won't see price increases. YOU will.
Will it cause some temporary layoffs in some sectors that export to the US? Sure. But the prices won't go up. And those jobs will come back when we just depend trade relations with China and the EU and SE Asia.

@vaughanweather @Marsilmad @coldhardthreads @ironsky @PeterSchiff @RealTimRay Except it won't.
That's the irony.
English
@Marsilmad @coldhardthreads @BlueTeamJK @ironsky @PeterSchiff @RealTimRay Many Americans cheering the tariffs I've discovered are insular and parochial, they don't have an understanding of the world beyond their borders nor basic economics at scale and cheer on a trade war that will actively hurt them by justify it by saying "it'll hurt you more"
English
Effective tomorrow, Trump will impose 25% tariffs on all products Americans buy from Canada and Mexico, and 10% tariffs on all products they buy from China. Assuming no exemptions, that's a $250 billion tax increase on Americans, which equates to about $2K per household per year.
English
Those changes take years.
The pain to the US consumer will be felt instantly.
This is what people really, really fail to grasp. US leadership has sent the US consumer out to pasture because you're terrifying EVERYONE, while THOSE YOU TARRIF will continue to trade freely.
Most of what Canada imports from US are food, alcohol, raw steel, and refined oil products. We don't import anything value-add, because frankly you don't manufacture shit at all. All of that comes from China and SE Asia, and we will continue free trade with them.
Meanwhile, our leaders are much smarter, applying tarrifs where they won't hurt our food basket. We're going to hit goods we can easily source elsewhere and those we don't need, like US alcohol. All the alcohol in Canada is bought by the government and they have total control over its purchase, they don't even need to tarrif it. LCBO alone is the largest importer of alcohol on earth, and they're going to take all US alcohol off the shelves - that's going to hit hundreds of millions of dollars directly to red states.
*The net effect is across the board prices in US are going to go up far more than they will in Canada. US prices will soon be far higher than anywhere else on earth*. The century of lower than average pricing on which the US consumer has been built, is going to collapse.
All of this is assuming the tarrifs are across the board. If the US is not as stupid, and only targets specific areas like dairy, then maybe everyone can climb down from this debacle before it's too late.
English
@BlueTeamJK @rand_longevity @unusual_whales While no one "wins" during the actual trade war. Changes to behaviors to conclude the tariffs mean that there can be winners and losers.
