It’s not just tariffs, Canadians are angry because our friends to the south elected a fascist government who regards Canadian independence as a threat and has the stated intention of destroying and looting our country.
CANADA IS NOT A VASSAL STATE!

Meatless Monday’s Meal.
Basically dealing with assorted odds and sods from my pantry.
A jar of a mild curry sauce with a can of chickpeas, a sweet potato, two old apples, and two bananas. The mini naan from the freezer had been there too long and will be part of the crows’ breakfast tomorrow .

Saudi Arabia is easing its rules on alcohol for non Muslim foreign residents who earn at least 50000 riyals per month, roughly $13300. Then they get to buy alcohol, Bloomberg reports.

“Ornamental piety”
The brutal yuletide assaults haven’t come from Atheists, Agnostics, Muslims, the Liberal Media, Progressive Christians, or the mythical Woke Mob.
The very white Conservatives who’ve been loudly sounding the alarm are the incessantly advancing hordes.

The War on Christmas is Finally Here, America. Conservative Christians are Waging it.
Well, it turns out, the Evangelicals were right.

“If he’s willing to send the army against Portland why wouldn’t he send it against Calgary?”
This is not a drill. The Trump doctrine has been boldly stated:
Reduce Canada to a vassal state.
Crush Ukraine.
Undermine Europe by promoting racist hate parties.
Serve Putin.
The plan has been clear as day all along now it is being stated openly.
We must resist.

"American F-35s could be serviced in Quebec"
"Could be" - as in not likely.
The Gripens will be serviced in Canada, that is already guaranteed.
L3Harris could do it.
And they will be built in Canada for Canada and possibly other customers.
That is also guaranteed.

I'll say again: we are oddly selective about the government services about which we will say, they operate at a loss.
We say Amtrak and the post office "lose money" but we never say highways, the court system, the Pentagon, etc lose money

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

Walked to my local Superstore to stock up on coffee beans. Not advertised in store but PC membership app holders can buy a maximum of four PC Coffee for only $14 each. Today’s listed price in store is $25.99. I bought four.
Once bought app shows offer as redeemed so I can’t buy again.
