In the drip. I'm right beside the border in Ontario.
Lake Ontario / Lake Erie, between them
I think i might have the virus
I think that’s a decent part of Canada
Me too *coof coof*
same
Good Canadians are appreciated
Ehhh, its alright. Toronto and surrounding area is what got Trudeau re-elected.
The price of gun range membership here is 450~ a year. If that gives you an idea of the pressure on conservatives here.
i feel like shit man
I have a friend from Toronto, we make fun of Canada often. “Canadian Tire” is one of our favorite targets
my head is all fucked up
I worked for Canadian Tire once, they fired my ass.
It was deserved but it was because I wouldn't lie to people.
Canadian Tire sounds absurdly silly lol
Also half of your government is appointed by the General whatever who is appointed by the Queen?
Two things happened. A customer was trying to buy a rifle and the bolt handle was rusty. I agreed with the customer and told my boss we should give him a discount. Got reprimanded. Second one was a mother coming in to buy hockey skates for her son (I lived in a very blue collar area at the time) and I explained she should go with used skates till he stops growing and not buy the expensive shit new. Little did I know my boss was down the aisle over her shoulder, bitch leaned out and gave me neck cutting motion. That was the last straw.
Canada is full of scum bags, honestly. We are 'polite' but actually inside a lot more selfish than Americans.
Canadian Tire is a retarded company
Abso-lutely
Apparently your national postal system is basically controlled by Amazon
Mmmm. Our post is government owned as far as I know, but it ships mostly amazon packages lol.
Our postal system kicks the shit out of USPS but its still not great
My Canadian friend, if what he says is correct, describes the Canadian economy as mostly being American influenced
It's true
Our dollar went to shit after the Corona hit.
"The Republican party, as we noted at the beginning of the book, is an insurgent outlier. It has become ideologically extreme; contemptuous of the inherited social and economic policy regime; scornful of compromise; unpersuaded by conventional understanding of facts, evidence, and science; and dismissive of the legitimacy of its political opposition, all but declaring war on the government. The Democratic party, while no paragon of civic virtue, is more ideologically centered and diverse, protective of the government's role as it developed over the course of the last century, open to incremental changes in policy fashioned through bargaining with the Republicans, and less disposed to or adept at take-no-prisoners conflict between parties. This is asymmetry between the parties, which journalists and scholars often brush aside or whitewash in a quest for "balance", constitutes a huge obstacle to effective governance." - Norm Ornstein Political Scientist, Non biased, ranked 100 top minds.
Something like 40% of the economy of Ontario is directly dependent on trade with the US
The only reason the dollar is climbing again is because of the injection that trump did to your economy.
yep @Eustace
You're entirely right. Trump is so good at what he is doing, its actually helping Canada.
Yeah it sounds like Ontario is a satellite economy of the US
Google CAD to USD and look at the chart. You will see exactly the effect I am talking about.
We might as well buy it
@Kako PLEASEEE ANEX ONTARIO
but do we want the responsibility
We can deport the people there we don’t like to Quebec
