What I am noticing, as a Canadian, is that they have to push back against it.
Pushing back against it should be the default stance. The root of the problem here is that tariffs are even on the table.
What I’m noticing is a lot of uncertainty and I don’t like that.
The US needs to take care of themselves too and if they need tariffs to do that, then it’s perfectly fine. There’s a limited number of things that can benefit them and we can plan around them if needed. The problem is that the current administration doesn’t seem to care about the well-being of the country at all. There’s little rhyme or reason to anything happening down there so literally anything can happen. You can’t plan around that.
So even the Democrats want us to capitulate. Nice to know what we’re up against.
As I said on Mastodon: too fucking little too fucking late.
Until we see him and Musk and the rest of the party hauled away in chains, you can hold on to your virtue signalling.
Not a majority consesus but a plurality of the voting population asked for this man to lead them…
I love my Seattle and Portland PNW neighbours, but that doesn’t mean we’re going to let this unilateral aggression from DC slide.
Oh we notice… but we’re still sharpening the moose antlers.
whew. at least they aren’t up to calling-up the squadrons of geese.
Cross that border and you’ll get frostbite … and if it’s warm outside, you’ll be swarmed by mosquitos and black flies
Please don’t release the geese, followed by the meese.
lol … I always love explaining this. I’m Indigenous Canadian, 100% Ojibway from northern Ontario and I fluently speak my Indigenous language, it’s my first language before English.
The Ojibway word for moose is … moose … (it’s an Indigenous word that hasn’t changed)
The Ojibway word for the plural of moose is … moosuk
I will die on meese is plural hill. It’s my fetch, I’m gonna make it happen.
Goose… Geese.
Moose… Meese.
Perfectly balanced.
I really like this, and I think moosuk really encapsulates the feeling of stumbling across more than one moose in the wild, but the last thing English needs is another standard for pluralization.
