The Big 3 US auto makers have been operating manufacturing plants in Canada for a hundred years or more. It has nothing to do with issues in the US.

The G7 summit (actually it was still the G8 then) was in Muskoka and the G20 was originally going to be there as well precisely because of security concerns and protesters. The G20 was only moved to Toronto because it was decided there was no way for Muskoka to accommodate all G20 leaders and their entourages.

Speaking of the tariffs: the CBC had an article the other day about why a 10% tariff on Canadian aluminum is especially stupid. Basically, the US imports four times as much aluminum from Canada as the entire domestic aluminum industry can produce so even with a tariff, America has no choice but to keep getting its…

Hungary is the only one that’s maybe in his sphere of influence. Ukraine and Georgia are essentially at war with Russia and Poland just announced it is willing to foot the entire cost of hosting a US armoured division on its soil.

I don’t think there are any. Rogue One had Saw speaking to Bodhi and The Last Jedi had Finn, Rose and DJ speaking to each other. That’s all I can think of with people of colour speaking to other people of colour. But I can’t think of any where a black character speaks to another black character.

Most Muslims don’t even wear turbans, and when they do they don’t look anything like a Sikh’s turban.

The Canadian Army nowadays has a polar bear mascot, Honourary Corporal Juno.

Here’s something that’s probably new for her; she’s on money.

Terry hates cancellations.

I don’t think it’s necessary to worry about this too much yet.

You should probably actually do some reading on the tens of thousands of people that have illegally crossed the border from the US to Canada since Trump became president and how they’re treated by Canadian authorities. Then maybe you won’t look like such a fucking idiot.

I’m going to be taking my nephew to the Ottawa Comic Con this weekend. He’s four and I’m sure he’ll love the cosplayers, but I was just looking at the guest list and saw that Mike Colter will be there, so that’s something cool for me.

Bonus points for numeral 1s interspersed among the exclamation marks.

That photo might actually mean something if the Canada goose was in any way, shape or form a symbol of Canada, but it’s not.

The Nobel Peace Prize is actually handed out by a Norwegian committee. All the others are handed out by the Swedes.

I’m sure people have pointed this out before, but every time Trump said something vile or crass or hurtful about an individual or an entire group of people, his supporters go on TV to tell everyone it was just a joke, lighten up, get a sense of humour, libtards.
