The thing is, if Trump wants to kill Canada’s role in US car manufacturing, then it will cost him the car markets in Mexico and Canada. If there’s no jobs here to protect, then we’ll just drop the tariffs on Chinese EVs. (This is speaking like 20 years down the road). We’ll all be driving Chinese cars in that scenario. The tariffs are a total lose-lose situation, so dumb.

I’d be way more concerned about whether it’s a deathtrap than whether or not the touchscreen has good UX, lol.

I sorta get what you’re asking for, but I think you’re going to get a response like, “Read a book”. There’s just not much to be gained by discussing issues like this on the internet, lol. edit: I think your example is maybe confusing too… not sure if you’re looking for political debates, or just educational discussions, or what. Maybe you could clarify and it’d help get some more constructive answers!

Totally fair. One thing that’s super clear in this country is that the tax laws favour the rich. IMHO even RRSPs are of greater benefit to people who don’t pay rent or have paid off their mortgages.

It’s great that you’ve pointed this out and I hope there’s more awareness about it. In practice, it’s not hard: Buy from candian-owned small businesses who manufacture in Canada.

In my not-at-all-humble opinion, most of your examples are all shit you shouldn’t be buying in the first place:

• We have copious amounts of local craft beer. Never buy the big brands, they’re all swill. If you actually drink craft beer, you’ll know which brands, like Creemore and Millstreet, are fake craft.

• Nobody should be buying anything from Coca-Cola in the 21st century. We’ve known pop is terrible for your health for like 50 years. They’re a shit company who is the biggest polluter of plastics in the world.

• Canada Goose is for tools with no taste. By the time any trendy fashion company gets bought out, it’s not cool anymore.

All we have to do as a nation is just put that little extra effort into learning about what we’re buying and making different choices, and it’s actually great that we’re all doing that because we should have been doing it all along.

You’re mad about the wrong thing. He’s going to pay an effective tax rate of about 25% when he exercises those options. (Capital gains)

Someone correct me if I’m wrong.
