Sure but it is ultimately futile because Mastodon, using the ActivityPub protocol, aka The Fediverse, can’t be completely shut down. Somebody ddos’s one instance, well there are other instances you can join to easily defeat the ddos.

Bowing to China, what a weird take. We allowed them to export 49k cars for us exporting Canola and Beef. The Americans deal significantly more with China than we do. Going to whine about that?

What a moronic point of view. Would you rather let our enemies roll over us? To think we aren’t in serious danger right now displays a total lack of awareness. What i want to see and tracked is Canada not spending money in the US.

Just returned from Pandora.

I’m worried about both.

Nice work!

Just a matter of time till they start charging their customers for patches.

I canceled my subscription, and while i’m all patriotic and shit, the reality is Netflix sucks.

I have a Google Pixel 3a xl from 2019. The phone works fine, with Ubuntu Touch/Waydroid.

We don’t give a shit if you like it or not.

Not yet but with legislation it could.

An agreement between EU/CPTPP and MERCOSUR members to recognize credit card’s created in each members countries that of course meet stringent standards, could be possible. I mean if VISA and Mastercard could do it, why not cards created in other countries? I mean it’s a lot of work but the alternative is the status quo where the US shuts down your access when you do something they don’t like.

The answer is yes, we should be decoupling from the US as much as possible economically. If the government needs to create a crown corp to do it then let’s get it done.

Russian mercenaries (Wagner and others) attacked a base in Syria under US protection, denied their participation and having any assets there, so the US said “understood” and proceeded to give them a pummeling ending with 200 of them dead. So there is precedent for others to follow suit.

Right people need to understand the algorithm is biased and the company is going to prioritize it’s world view over the average persons.

With real axes! lol

Looks like he wants to eke out a majority rather than calling a general election. Personally i think he’d win a comfortable majority and gain better candidates, but polling has probably shown people aren’t wanting to go to the polls so soon. Otherwise i don’t see why he wouldn’t, he’s decimating the cons in popularity.

Yup, we aren’t joining the EU, we don’t need to. A large trading block of middle powers, CETA/CPTPP and eventually MERCOSUR and a few other countries is brewing. Not to mention reformation of the WTO, a “plan B” due to the dispute mechanism being sabotaged by the US for it’s own unilateral protectionist purpose. Let’s just hope the US gets bogged down in Iran and is too preoccupied to invade Canada before the mid-terms turns the US Congress and Senate against their president.

It’s weird that under Canada is an American Easter story. They know we’re a separate country right?

Free Trade with the US is coming to an end, we should never have integrated with the US as much as we did, but now we need to suck it up and pivot hard. Build sovereign control, from top to bottom, soup to nuts, servers, enterprise, banking, investment, supply chains, defense, everything that gives the US or any other hostile entity leverage over us.
