Trudeau on twitter:

I just had a good call with President Trump. Canada is implementing our $1.3 billion border plan — reinforcing the border with new choppers, technology and personnel, enhanced coordination with our American partners, and increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl. Nearly 10,000 frontline personnel are and will be working on protecting the border.

In addition, Canada is making new commitments to appoint a Fentanyl Czar, we will list cartels as terrorists, ensure 24/7 eyes on the border, launch a Canada- U.S. Joint Strike Force to combat organized crime, fentanyl and money laundering. I have also signed a new intelligence directive on organized crime and fentanyl and we will be backing it with $200 million.

Proposed tariffs will be paused for at least 30 days while we work together.

Will China pay for that?

Interesting thought. But where were they all during the first go-round? I do think Musk is up to something nefarious and saw campaigning for TFG as his “in” to power.

A couple posters on here are beating the drum yet everyone wants to argue America sucks, shitting on Canada (which they are), TFG is a moron, his followers are imbeciles. Blah blah blah.

Pay attention to Musk.

Labranewfie? Or just the poor forgotten Labrador. Why is it Labrador is so forgotten in Canada?

You do realize you are the one paying the tariffs so you will suffer if you slap Windy with tariffs…

Can you name a town in Labrador? Yeah… me either.

Labrador is mostly trees. There are some costal towns, the rest is virtually empty.

It’s not even a Province, it’s just Newfoundland’s sidekick.

And Newfoundland is barely a province.

Not a chance I could, but today I learned the southern most extent of polar bears ranges to the southern end of Newfoundland, which means polar bears live further south than Duluth, MN…

And in case you need a place to stay while visiting:

  3. Blow Me Down
  4. Red Head Cove
  5. Come By Chance
  6. Witless Bay
  7. Cow Head
  8. Bonavista
  9. Trinity
  10. Quidi Vidi

Labrador City?

Gotta be at least one.

Neither here, nor there…

I once worked with a guy from Newfoundland. He went by Sam, but his name was actually Cleofus. He didn’t know why he went by Sam.

There is a pond somewhere near his hometown called Cleo’s pond. Sam told us that he once caught a fish in that pond and they named it after him because no one could remember anyone catching anything in that pond and it was assumed to be fish free.

He was from Musgrave Harbour.

So he did know why.

I really feel sorry for his brother Cleotoris. But he was really good at hide and seek.

100% agree that commerce needs certainty.

I’ll repeat the whole tariffs thing is stupid

I heard he was just a myth.

Just hides further into the bush than most are willing to go in search.
