Canadian mining companies are amongst the most hated in the world and they give Canada a really bad name.

Thanks for the encouragement. But I think Europe pretty much got it covered.

I go to France every year and I rarely see any Canadian products other than anything maple.

I’m not denying he did some great things for Canada. But he was still controversial amongst the québécois.

Also, one’s terrorist is another’s freedom fighter. It’s all a matter of perspective.

My argument was that they rely too much on private contractors to build the housing and they won’t build anything wihout any way of making a significant profit. The government used to build multi unit housing buildings before for social housing, but they pulled back from that over time.

Otherwise, I agree with everything else you said about the military.

In fact, someone else either here or on Mastodon suggested that the car manufacturing plants that might close down due to the tariffs, could be taken over by the government to build stuff. So why not military vehicles, etc?

The part where Mastodon is mentioned:

There ya go.

Basically mirroring Trump in every bullet point of his plan.

Is his plan project 2025?

Totally.

Pierre Elliott Trudeau stabbed Québec in the back so many times. He was not a unifying PM at all. He pissed Québec off something fierce. He even got so far as imposing martial law in Québec at some point.

He did some good things for Canada, sure. But he was in no way a unifying PM.

Actually, yes.

The housing crisis could be fixed if the government started building subsidized housing again like it used to instead of hoping the private sector will save us and subsidizing these crooks who have been taking advantage of the market.

And the military, too. We need to invest in more and better equipment mostly.

No one is saying they like or support PP.

Criticizing Carney doesn’t mean you support PP.

Yeah well so did Trudeau. I was hopeful but I learned my lesson.

Carney also talks about making cuts. What is there left to cut???

He’s the best they’ve got, sure. But I don’t think he’s going to help the middle class. I don’t think he’s going to make a good PM.

I hope he proves me wrong.

It’s mostly TV channels with extra on demand stuff.

At 17$/month I would expect to have no ads in the on demand content, otherwise I’d be very disappointed.

It’s owned by Quebecor.

It’s $16.99/month

It’s a shame because there are good American businesses that are affected by this. There are companies that I respect. But it is what it is.

Tu sais, il y a une communauté /c/canada_francais aussi qui pourrait bénéficier de telles publications. 😁

Yeah. Ew.

There’s certain Canadian companies I still avoid for my own reasons. Like Loblaws.
