  • Ontario premier went on to say the deal risks “closing the door on Canadian automakers to the American market”

    Doing nothing risks closing US market. This is leverage to get balanced auto trade between US and Canada, and charge individual manufacturers fees/tariffs based on imbalance. Demand that manufacturers pay more for Canadian access, with payment in local production. Can be part of new CUSMA/USMCA to permit US to get same balanced trade payments, if Canada were to export more than we import.





  • rabble.ca is considered conservative, but praise the necessity of the Chavez revolution in Venezuela here. But this piece is pro Canadian. While repeating all US/CIA lies against Maduro to praise US imperialism seems like the obvious sycophancy that is a cheap gift to provide Trump in hope of avoiding too many more slaps this week from Trump, Canada still got a few when Trump was asked any questions tangentially related to Canada.

    Carney’s cowardice on Venezuela fully justifies all US/Israel lies, including our far greater than Venezuela fentanyl distribution. The Venezuela control justification eventually morphed into China cannot control resources. This applies to vast majority of nations on earth who have more trade with China than US, and for Canada, oil or canola trade would justify same US action.

    To the broader headline, to rabble.ca’s credit, they didn’t bs into a coalition of the cowards (begging for US support for all wars US has always wanted). The world as a whole has the power to collapse the US sooner than their scheduled demise. Canada’s role is as simple as stopping BoC investment in US debt, and pressuring our big institutions to do the same. No US arms or other purchases that have alternatives (Boeing, Catterpillar, US tech), but most of all foreign policy opposition, and military subserviency renouncement.

    If Carney’s mission is to fix the US economic relationship, he is clearly failing by supporting US propagandized evil. So is Europe. Begging for US kindness, relief from insults/threats for the week, is far inferior to improving ties with China and Russia, in order to unite against evil.



  • Evil CIA BS as usual. Like Iran, there is no liberalism that will pacify zionazi fasicsts holding on to their lies. How many EVs should Canada buy when we learn that the most humanist response of education and job creation, to CIA funded foreign terrorists in Xinxiang has resulted in peace and proseperity in the region? … or should we cater to pig fucking demonic shitstains insistence that whatever the CIA keeps saying is the status of Xinxiang is the truth?

    Canadian fascist subservience to US fascism can’t be the democracy premitted free speech rammed down our throats.

    I’m all for supporting Ontario auto industry. But it should be through attacks on the evil threatening it, instead of Canadian consumer lifeline that would also free tax payers from subsidizing jobs that will go away through automation anyway. If neo-lib nazi shitfilth wants to conern troll over human rights, then it should look at recent US news, ffs.

    Make DoFo go suck every dick in Trump cabinet telling them “please master, drop tariffs or Canada will be forced to exterminate US owned auto sector from ever selling another climate terrorist guzzling vehicle ever again”





  • Kites are more complicated than spinnakers which are already “fishing junk out of the water with extra steps” complicated. It is promising for solar electric boats, both as backup power, and voyage power boost, but even if they are promised as autopiloted flight, there needs to be a lot of experience in how to use them and when to bring them down ahead of weather, and lulls are big problems. There are commercial ship models, but I’m unaware of success stories with customer satisfaction.



  • The US already has direct colonial control over NATO. NATO is fully committed to not let Russia invade Greenland or setup oil rigs off the coast, and it is absurd to suggest that Russia or China are patrolling Greenland or have any desire to attempt to take their resources without cooperation. But the US would get NATO’s help for defense of Greenland, and NATO would permit greater US contribution to NATO command bases there, or obey orders to contribute more themselves.

    Trump, in addition to repeating the false China/Russia threat, has admitted zero interest in Greenland’s resources. They are too far away and extremely expensive to develop. This leaves only a single possible motive for needing US control over Greenland: The absolute certainty that EU will disobey US orders for greater submission and the need to directly threaten them from closer distance. There is no offensive missile threat to Russia provided by Greenland relative to other NATO territory.
