It’s a good thing to have control of your border and it’s a good thing to break up and deport criminal gangs. As always, his methods are moronic.

yeh, I should have added that disclaimer, lol.

Smart thinking. All the best in your new life. Germany and europe should be booming for the next few years so hope you can take advantage. Cheers

I hope there’s some security guarentees in the details.
I don’t care about him getting a win. With this aggressive approach he’s going to do a lot of good things. There’s no doubt some of what he’s striving for is a valid target but his methods won’t make it a net positive.

Where are you heading, if I may ask. Is this something you’ve been thinking about for a while or just with recent developments? I’m very disappointed that Canada didn’t immediately start publicly inviting STEM people north and spending lots to create openings and programs.

That covers some Chinese departures over a period prior to trumps policies but there are a lot more nationalities to cover and more recently I would expect the number to increase substantially. Thanks for the info though. I’m sure there’s more movement to come.

Are they though? I haven’t seen many stories about it but would entirely expect this to be the case. Especially because many are suddenly unemployed.

If the choice is having them help your “enemy” or subjecting them to personal trauma, which do you think they’ll choose?

How long before they’re not allowed to leave?

I have serious reservations about the patent system. After Apple was granted a patent several years ago where it was granted for their use of facial recognition to open the iPhone. They didn’t invent either technology but were granted this. I don’t know what came of it but I never heard of it being overturned.

I wasn’t referring to our select tariffs I was referring to the orange baboon being allowed to, by Canada’s lack of response, give relief to certain industries where a tariff would hurt the U.S… If we let him pick and choose without making all his constituents feel the pinch I think we’re giving him an easy win. Now I’m not entirely against Canada doing selective retaliation against mostly red states but I question the whole approach to tariffs at all. My preference would be for Canada to add an export tax. Appease trump by saying yeh, you’re right, we’ve been totally unfair to you (or something like that), so we’re going to tax all our exports to level the playing field. Then Canada keeps the money and trump can’t raise money through this approach to trade. Now I don’t discount that he would still have tariffs and so this would be a double hit to Canadian exports, but I’m curious how this would play out.

Why is Canada letting dipshit pick and choose which industries he protects for political reasons. Canada should switch from the tariff method and put an export tax on everything.

When you wake up in the morning and no ones there, do you rejoice or do you despair. When you bump your head on the end of your bed, does anybody care. Will you end your life with no friend or wife, who will be witness to bare. In that case for you, the solitude true, and the judgement would be that its fair.

I’m happy to support the loops site but how about a volume control.
