@nprofile…wuyc @nprofile…cfje If the tariffs persist then I imagine there will be new shipping routes between Mexico and Canada and freight via trucking routes will suffer.

@nprofile…wuyc @nprofile…cfje Presumably because the final destination is not the US there are no tariffs? I could be totally wrong here.

@nprofile…wuyc This clearly was posted as FOSS nerd honey pot. I will not fall for it.

@nprofile…wuyc @nprofile…u7eu Well, that’s not good.

@nprofile…wuyc This has big Brexit delusion overtones. They thought they could exit the EU and still keep all the benefits and access to the single market too. Total nonsense.

@nprofile…7s7m And then said Neo-Nazi makes noises like “oh I might come back part time” and the stock goes up a bit because these serious business people are totally very serious business people and not just clueless boobs who HAVE to believe that he can turn things around.

Americans would lose their shit if other countries just unilaterally made decisions that royally fucked them over for no reason.

Just watched The News Agents show (British current events radio show with video - yeah, I don’t get it either) and I mostly agree with their assessment on US except for their dismissal of any fears that people have about travel to the US. I suspect they haven’t seen the list of people who have been disappeared at the border and held with no due process for days and weeks, not knowing if they will ever be allowed to go home. I mean, it’s two wealthy successful white male media personalities so they can’t imagine ever having problems.

@nprofile…wuyc They couldn’t have found a bigger group of clownish cartoon villains for every appointment in this administration.

If you wear a MAGA hat and other trump accessories when going through the border does this yuuugely reduce your chances of being disappeared?

@nprofile…wuyc @nprofile…3j5t @nprofile…dhhy They are the lesser evil. I will never forgive them for keeping Bonnie Henry as CMO and their appalling and continuing appalling handling of the pandemic. I know you all moved on, but some of us are trapped in hell and the NDP are not our friends.

If you are a Canadian company and you are 100% reliant (web, email, storage, DNS) on US infrastructure, maybe you shouldn’t be.
