Canada and the Art of the Deal

Trump and Tariffs

Donald Trump is just saying we'll treat other countries the way they treat the us. Have a free trade agreement with us - we expect you to honor it. Break the agreement or levy taxes of any kind on us and FAFO.

Texas also remands Canada of their limited size in comparison. Canada knew this reckoning was coming too.

Oh Canada

 Many celebrities and lefties (but I repeat myself) vowed to move to Canada if Donald Trump was elected. While these were mostly empty threats from people who live in a world of make believe - these people also mostly live in states that do not require ID's to vote in federal elections. Canada does.

Here are the voting requirements in Canada to vote in national elections:

• Present a government issued ID with name and address.
• Otherwise you have to show two pieces of ID - at least one must show your current address.
• If you lack proper ID you can declare your name and address in writing and someone with proper ID who lives in the polling location can vouch for you.

The hypocrisy - it burns!
