| SvennoJ said: Well of course not all Canadians think alike, hence we have the Conservatives, Liberals, NDP, Green party and Bloc Québécois as main parties. And people are worried about the tarrifs Trump is threatening with Manufacturers fear 'devastating impact' The Canadian Manufacturers and Exporters says it fears the tariffs would have a "devastating impact" on manufacturers, workers and consumers in both Canada and the U.S., and it's working with officials to stress the consequences of the proposals. Last year, $2.5 billion in products crossed the border daily in 2023, with 75 per cent of them manufactured goods. The trade and industry group says Canada's exports to the U.S. are mainly materials and inputs used by American companies to manufacture other products. |
I have a hard time not being a bit conspiratorial about the refund checks and the postal strike being so well aligned. Totally possible it's just coincidental and bad timing, but politicians wanting to give back, and promising things, and then never delivering because of some excuse, always an excuse, or eventually delivering but far far later than promised, sometimes even after a leadership change, happens way too often. That money right now for many Canadians will make the difference between a decent xmas or no xmas really, so this postal strike has got a lot of people upset with them and even more at the Gov. It's also almost starting to become a norm during the holidays. The postal service has basically been using xmas to force everyone to give into their demands or cause further headaches if not flat out ruin the holiday cheer and gifting. Another reason why I'm a little conspiratorial. The Gov by now knows a strike is likely coming at this time.
