The "LOLCANADA" thread...again

I love how a far right compliment a socialist policy like tariffs as successful which basically is just a tax .
But since trump does it , now tariffs are great lol ..

Obviously? Like I'm super glad her staffer managed to use their phone's camera to grab this pic in the crowded mar-a-lago ballroom as Trump is endlessly swarped with probably thousands of people in inauguration week. I don't really care that she is trying to get political photo op points. It's just ****ing hilarious that you pretended she was the only one who considered negotiating and starting musing that her interaction was magically the thing that made oil tariffs lower. LMAO what a reach, and after all the pathetic sniveling about other politicians who did their own various pr students to give this one an utter pass is hilarious.

LMAO. Looks like you took fentanyl about as seriously as Trump did if you can't think of any other possible actions beyond the one rather useless one of trying to "secure" a porous multithousand km border.

Basically. "a broad based tax on all americans to pay for our tax cuts to the rich" wasn't going to sell. But pair the massive tax cuts for the rich with something you can stupidly pretend is paid for by other countries? Well that is more politically palpable.

Let me guess, the 2020 truther is lapping this **** up.

I'm okay with you mocking me, as long as you stay within the boundaries of reality okay?

Can you read the article next time? Can you also try and read between the lines?

Nobody is denying fentanyl crossing into the US from Canada or vice verse. Nor am I denying fentanyl is being made in Canada. I'm arguing the national crisis claims. There is 0 data to back up your claim. The so called experts clearly don't exist either because the best thing you could come up with is an article from 2023 that doesn't even support your original claim. If anything it says the opposite.

''Bertrand cited Australia and New Zealand as known destinations for Canada-made fentanyl.

Some Asian countries supply key ingredients for Canadian-made fentanyl via shipments through South American countries or the United States, he said.''.

And still running a record deficit this year btw.

Monthly surpluses happen on average just under twice a year, posting a monthly surplus when you’re running a massive consistent annual deficit is borderline fake news.

Lets use a poker analogy to help you understand. What we have here, is a losing reg bragging about having a good September even though he's down heaps YTD.

Lol didn't even see this.

That's what you get when uneducated people get their news from x. They post these bad graphs that 1 don't seem to math, just add up the numbers and 2 are purposefully vague by having an entire ''other'' line that does all the heavy lifting.

It's even funnier when you consider a monthly surplus means nothing and is almost entirely based on timing. In April the US posted a surplus followed by a huge deficit in May.

''The U.S. government ran a slightly smaller budget shortfall in the most recent year thanks to higher tariff revenue - but the national debt still rose to another record high, and shows no sign of slowing.''

Nothing to see here!

Lets try these than

Why are you lying? It wasn't only a ballroom meeting.

I'm not the one that claimed there are a "swath" of ways to curtail fentanyl. I don't think it's useless at all, any amount of fentanyl is too much and we have a moral obligation to do something.

LMAO!!!! Oh thank god the staffer had good lighting for a second iphone photo because the crowded ballroom pic was just awful! Thank goodness you found a barely better photo op! So glad you've proven the case of a very serious business meeting successful concluded! Now one "could argue" - as you pathetically tried to do - that it actually was Kevin O'Leary that magically managed to secure reduced tariffs on energy I'm sure the PR stunts totally accomplished this!

Man it must be nice to live in your mind.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.

My dude droning on about moral obligation and literally can't think of a single thing to do to combat fentanyl other than the most pathetically useless one of all: attempting to "Secure" the 8km long porus border between the US. I'm sure that "moral obligation" will vanish just as fast as it did with trump if the suggestion is to spend a single dollar actually in an actual community.

Buddy you gotta get off youtube.

You're just embarrassing yourself at this point. You just rambled for a paragraph about how she only met him in a ballroom. You haven't proven it wasn't a serious, successful meeting other than some bizarre rambling about it being taken with an iPhone....

I can think of a bunch of ways. I asked you what you thought should be done since you claimed there's a "swath" of ways that don't include securing the border.

🫢

He asked for proof and I provided it to him . The first one was a google search but yes the second one I follow Sean Ryan he has some great guest.

Are you denying the source? (women)

LMAO. My dude, neither photo suggest anything beyond the briefest of possible "hello!". It's a photo OP. It's a PR stunt. Hey I can't even fault it, thousands of people rushed to Mar-a-lago to try and get their meet and greet moment with Trump in inaugeration week, she is hardly alone. The problem is when you hilariously - laughably - pathetically - ridiculously - tried to suggest that she miraculously secured reduced tariffs and was the only person interested in negotiations.

Well great! Oddly all these "bunch of ways" you never seem to mention before or after trump started screeching about the Canada/US border, probably the most ineffective way to try and stop fentanyl and kinda sad we are throwing money away pointlessly to appease trump versus the other "bunch of ways" you believe you help.

I have no idea what you are even talking about and don't care to. I'm just telling you that an hour long ****ing youtube podcast with anemic 12k views is not "proof" because nobody is going to watch that.

Do better.

I am. Not because she's a woman but because she's a nobody on a nobody podcast.

This isn't proof.

Between you and Shifty it's crazy what sources you consider news. One posts random tweets that mean nothing in the grand scheme of things and one gets his news from podcasts. Wild.

Typical Extreme Lefty . The second one is 14 minutes long

And as for the women she is from your favorite Network CBC

You and Montreal keep saying Canada does not have a fentanyl issue when it comes to the USA border when in fact its a huge problem

Of course Trump is using this as an excuse but I am just saying he has a legal ground to stand on

Funny you voted for a guy that is dismantling of the guy you loved policies. Sure be funny if he removes the tanker ban and emissions cap as well. It shows your nothing than a party hack

Explain to me how a photo would "suggest" a productive meeting was had?

Here's some evidence:

-Lower tariffs on energy
-How many companies have left Alberta for the US?
-What province has been doing the best since tariffs started? Have you seen the job numbers? Canada would be in a depression without Alberta leading the way
-What has Doug Ford accomplished with his PR empty threats?

Dodging the question but I'll ask again. What "swath" of ways would you stop fentanyl?

He's spent a decade defending all things Trudeau, he's politically lost right now. Doesn't know what direction to go, his posting has gone way down hill because he has no thoughts of his own but spent a decade parroting Trudeau. It's incoherent rambling talking about iphones and saying LOLOLOL like a teenage girl.

Yeah it is wild times in 2025 when a dude who I assume is older than 11 is getting his news from a meme x account. Could've linked any other reputable source but decided to go with a meme account.

I will take your lack of response as an acknowledgement that you lack the knowledge needed on subjects like this to have a meaningful discussion btw. I think this is a moment of personal growth for you, so embrace it. You posted an x thinking you were really doing something but all it highlighted was just how uneducated you really are.

Must be an Alberta thing.

The photo suggests they shook hands in a crowded ballroom and then chatted briefly with O'Leary while Trump was on his way to the golf course. That's it. Your "evidence" is just BS you attributing to Smith but has zero reason to believe is related to Smith in any way. Ford's PR stunts are about as stupid as Smith's PR stunts, why you listed that as "evidence" is beyond me.

Remember that list you pretended you had? Start there. After how hilarious your twenty questions game about melting ice caps was you're going to have to do your own homework this time.

Shifty regularly posts meme account tweets, it's pretty clear this is a big part of his "news" consumption. Probably explains the 2020 trutherism and any number of other things.

12 K views isnt that about what CBC gets

That's a pretty epic zero accountability whataboutism.

I'm not sure what meme account you are referring to?

Lol ok pal. I'm still waiting to be enlightened on how exercising a sunset clause in an agreement is "reneging"

Man, I haven't heard the term meme account since like 2016. Was the Mark Carney tweet I posted about securing the border from today that you glossed over a "meme account"?

Somehow I'm not surprised.

I think I've done enough teaching. You need to read a bit more about the Sunset clause, clearly. When ever you want to discuss how silly it is to post monthly surpluses in a record breaking deficit year let me know. I'll guide you through it.
