OK but *why* did Franklin need to buy treasuries? More importantly why did the government feel the need to tell people to buy treasuries when the interest being paid on them is going to tank?
Or are they hoping the same idiots that bought Clown Crypto will buy this now?

The official position of the #Trump regime, in this piece from @politico.com, and the lies which are built in as assumptions, and thus yield faulty conclusions👇
a)
They want an end to Russia's war of aggression.
Wrong:
Trump's policies have led to a strong Russian escalation of the war.

Not just Canada. All other countries that had alliances with the "former" USA should be "decoupling" and creating trade and security partnerships with other countries. USA will have to be under sane leadership for quite some time to rebuild trust.
I agree, Trumps insanity has prompted Canada to, 1. notice the noose the US had around our throat 2. to loosen it and eventual remove it. But we are not out of danger, and the economic war is an ongoing war. As Carney says, we must do this fast, I agree. If we do not move fast, Canada will be lost

👇 Statement can be applied to investors and citizens of many allies of the "former" USA.
If you live near the border you do hear about local businesses being affected that’s about it. Many Americans don’t realize how angry Canadians are and are boycotting US products, tourism. Canada was a solid ally and now they don’t want to waste their time with us. All of the Djt BS, they’re over it
