It was always a no win scenario for the natives, they lost a solid 150 years ago. If they voted for independance from France, the USA would have ransaked the island the same day - with half a...

French Europeans living in New Caledonia for ten years get the vote. It makes sense as it is exactly the same way that the USA got Hawaii, send in a warship take out the monarchy and...

Off grid has always been the goal. Get eighteen 610 watt Longi bifacial panels (about $350 apiece) big battery and inverter. Leave one panel for a Bluetti AC180P with a backup 2000 watt gasoline or...

This does have me worried about the mental state of the USA.

US citizens don't like being taxed. Doesn't matter if its British tea or Chinese EV's - Americans like cheap and abundant stuff.

Hard to say for sure how the boycott is going.

I can imagine that its actually fairly easy to not buy groceries, since noone has any money left nowadays.

USD to UAH (Ukrainian Hryvnia) might be worth a look assuming that Putin goes full summer offensive. If you have a Billion USD to spare or so.

I can imagine China will counter tariff on the week.

Inflation is pretty much assured now. $10 big mac by next year?

I'd say most older US citizens don't associate China with quality.

However, the young generation that does not really buy physical goods - will likely say that TikTok is a superior platform to...

I'd think that China could weather any tariff amount with ease. They have a billion of their own citizens to sell to afterall. Punitive tariffs do not scale well beyond a king and his 1,000 peasant...

Damn, thats high. Still makes me wonder if China will win regardless. Willing to pay double for Chinese made quality? 2024.

They are starting to remove government subsidies all over the world now, even India.

Logic seems to be that people who can afford solar are making too much money and forcing all the poor people...

Yup, going to spend the extra 15 seconds to unplug the computers tonight for sure.

Maybe we should give all qualified legal immigrants and all the younguns 40 acres of land. The USA did it early on, and then later on, and it seems to have been successful.

With climate change,...

Time to get the flashbangs and pepper spray out.

What is crazy is that its suggested to reject all prospects who make less than $72,000 for a $2,000 (now of course entry level) rental.

Its almost shocking how many make 100G a year and can still...

So I guess the USA...

Big Mac getting awfully close to the $7 to $8 range. I can imagine they will keep it at $9.99 for as long as it can when it gets there.

*sigh* dollar menu back when things were actually a 7 gram...

If TD collapses I'm up the creek with a chopstick, haha.

99% sure Waterhouse is a seperate entity, like how RBC is a seperate entity from RBC insurance (which is Aviva)

I used to do waterhouse way back in the day. This could actually be wag the dog...

Realistically the USA can throw out a bail that Trump can't handle.

I can imagine that fines can be limitless and arbitrary. It would make sense for the USA to collapse a Canadian bank before...

I guess they have too few nickels?

Since TikTok is going to be banned soon:

They have a 14 month GIC @ 5%, which makes me think they aren't desperate for money either way.

7.1 very nice. Its too bad bitcoin mining did its four year halving and the forecast is for heat all year.

I hear they are starting to rent out half beds in Toronto.

Could always just use fabric tape and two minutes of ironing if you can live with that.

What makes you think the moms aren't spearheading it.

I get the feeling the TikTok ban is related.

No doubt TikTok has elements of unreality, but the reality is far more detrimental to mental health.

Global and CTV both ran the story. Very unusual for Canadian media to go on rumor.

They actually went to the trouble to make a steal all day song too. Sign of the times.

Overlord. Not as good as I was hypeing it up in my mind to be.

Non Disclosure Agreements make sense to me, where you actively want to hide secret sauces before they are released. But to say again, non-competes are pure retard. NASA is pure retard, a self...

"Continental" medium ground beef $12.79 / pound at Real Canadian Superstore.

Ouch.

I do winter and summer chair.

For winter, the Staples Osgood. Only drawback is that it is not full leather, only bonded - which means you have to mink oil the heck out of it or it won't last long...

Alpha male bosses tend to think that they cultivate betas by support through wages. Betas tend to think that they eventually learn enough to break free from the Alphas.

Its hard to know the knock on effects of raising the capital gains on housing (and especially renting) in this environment.
