The "LOLCANADA" thread...again
So what's new?
I've noticed the Liberals are now ahead in all major polls and Trudeau hasn't even started to campaign yet...i'd be shocked if they lost the election now.
Just shows just how incompetent Conservatives are.
Though you don't give a fxxk about oil workers losing their jobs or energy jobs
Sorry you care more about Team Liberal than Team Canada and the truth
Never seen someone so eager to make nonsense on the Internet then you (beside pb2000 and BJ) .
Oil workers represent one of the fewest numbers of employed people in economic sectors and because the whole focus isn’t just aim at them , your not for Canada ?
lol ..

like 3% of all Canadian jobs!
Here is another thought with more sense …
https://careersinenergy.ca/employment-an...
More then half energy jobs are in Alberta …
Maybe it’s you , thinking Alberta by itself is the entire Canadian community , just cares about Alberta and you do not gives a $h!t about Canada …..
And fwiw , to put a final nail on your brainwashed of yours by right wing robots nonsense ->

Canadian oil and gas jobs reach 10-year high amid industry optimism
https://globalnews.ca/news/10894541/cana...
Canada’s oil and gas well drilling sector is poised to employ more people next year than it has in a decade, but the job growth could be derailed if president-elect Donald Trump makes good on his tariffs threat.
Yeah blame Trudeau or liberal but not trump lol .
Jfc ..
Pa: hey lozen , maybe you are the one that should start give a fack about reality instead for once in your life ????
While the morning had ruminations about some partial package, sounds more certain like the full 25% on everything.
A reminder that nope nope nope, never had anything to do with drugs or migrants. If these drops seem large, it's mostly because the amount at less than 1% was already so tiny that even tiny perturbations drop it precipitously.
The federal government's efforts have produced results with the number of intercepted illegal migrants dropping by some 90 per cent in the last few months alone.
Despite Trump's claims, data from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) released earlier this month shows there has also been a significant decrease in seizures of fentanyl coming from Canada.
The CBP's own data registered a 97 per cent drop in January compared to December 2024 at the northern border — evidence, the Canadian government says, that its $1.3-billion border security package is already bearing fruit.
It reports just 13.6 grams of fentanyl seized by northern Border Patrol staff in January.
13.6 grams. Destroy economies over 13.6 grams.
ya thanks tips everyone and their dog and the flees on the dog's back figured that one out.
Here, I'll give you a 1000 fold error. Let's say that US authorities are so inept at their job of securing their own border they only seize 0.1% of the true amount.
"Destroy economies over 13.6 kg".
They send us WAY more guns and drugs. Everyone knows this.
Anyway he's going to eat a recession now. He can't avoid it.

Trump complains about Canada — but new data shows spike in U.S. drugs and guns coming north
Quantity of drugs seized by Canadian officials at U.S. border has doubled in 2 years
I wonder what trump doing himself ….
Ok but that says nothing as to why HE'S pissed, lol.
We get all their trash, and he's inventing some lie in the other direction.
It's also like the US is responsible for stopping stuff going into the US. Canada is responsible for stopping stuff going into Canada. Like neither side checks the passport of people leaving their country, for instance. Sure there is a bunch of security sharing etc, but to a first order approximation if drugs are pouring over the Canadian border (1% the rate of the US, now 97% reduced from that 1% number) then that is a US problem.
But honestly all these debates with the timbit trumpkins are just silly. Obviously non of this is the reason why trump is slapping on tarrifs so it is purely academic to debate them.
I just think putting his country in recession over this **** is nuts. But Donald gonna Donald.

I find it funny that democrats say Tariffs only punish Americans but it’s Canada that will lose the jobs . So we’re gonna punish CDNs by putting tariffs on orange Juice and Harley’s
I’m just glad Justin is meeting with King Charles to solve the problem

oh I KNOW how we're going to suffer. That's why we're taking counter measures. We're FULLY aware of what this is going to cost us.
But the cost on his nation is already taking place. The revised economic contraction, inflation, stock market prices. The dude is committing sepuku.
What baffles me is people who admire or support it.
I don’t drink but thx for the sentiment .
Do you have other lies to propagate?
I’ll post again since u can’t read :
https://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.7457605
Quantity of drugs seized by Canadian officials at U.S. border has doubled in 2 years
In fact, when looking at weight alone, Canadian officials seized more illegal drugs coming from the U.S. last year than what the Americans captured on their side of the 49th parallel.
CBSA is seizing many more drugs, prohibited weapons and firearms than they were just two years ago, according to figures compiled by the border agency and shared with CBC News.

I hope you’re not suggesting that Shifty or I admire his tariff actions ?
All I have said how can we be surprised he campaigned on it along with other things
Shifty may admire Trump more than I . Some policies I agree with and many I do not
Oh I knew the market was doomed and dumped 80% of my portfolio last week
Ok but that says nothing as to why HE'S pissed, lol.
We get all their trash, and he's inventing some lie in the other direction.
Ok, maybe our government should have done something to stop the flow of weapons across the border? Maybe spent less time worrying about banning legal firearms and more time on illegal ones?
He's what the world needs, doesn't mean I'm happy or anything about the Tariffs. Canada has no one to blame but themselves, we elected a clown 3 times and are apparently facing our biggest crises ever but parliament hasn't been called even though we have a minority government and current Prime Minister that resigned 3 months ago is touring around Europe pledging money and troops to an unwinnable war.
Out of curiosity, if Zelenskyy tomorrow declares he wants peace (for the 10,000th time) but this time says it with real sincerity that a Trumpkin wants him to say it, and then Putin says no and keeps fighting and keeps invading, what exactly do you propose next?
Trump not going to be happy when China starts loving some Canadian beef again, and other things.
Welp tariffs and counter tariffs officially in place. Senseless destruction.
Never forget that lozen thought Trump would be good for Canada.
IMHO I m not sure putting tariffs right away on the US is the solution .
our weak Canadian dollar should still entice American to buy Canadian goods .
And since our dollar already weak, it was already an hurdle to buy American .
I would have keep in reserve that move in a more opportune moment instead.
Anyway will see how it goes …

I'm guessing hushed talks have been held with other nations, so this response is likely not done in a vacuum. While the US is hellbent on spending on all its soft power for nothing, what remains is still a powerful and rich nation, which few can stand up to on their own.
There is also the signal effect. A failure to tariff back would be hailed as a win by the US government, regardless of whether this is true or not. This could greatly prolong the trade war.
