I feel like some cancon would have been a better choice for this sentiment.

What is your Canadian choice for this meme?

From this US citizen, I'm pulling for Canada and Mexico. I may have to pay more, but I'm comfortable to weather it. I want it to fuck up everything and clearly have it because of the tariffs. Pork, whiskey/bourbon, oil... Hit red state exports first and hardest, then do the rest as necessary. Make it hurt

So I learned yesterday that some auto parts cross the borders of Canada and Mexico multiple times during production. I think we will see mass layoffs at auto facilities in the US inside two weeks.

Michigan's governor warned of this. It's going to very badly affect the automotive sector.

A bunch of Michigan dipshits voted for him, are gonna be hurting from this.

Yeah but also isnt it kind of insane that stuff get shipped back and forth between windsor and detroit just to add a few more parts each time?

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

It is and I don't doubt that there is a reason for it that is not practical. By that I mean it's making a capitalist money that way. But that issue is negligible in the face of ... this

Every (former) ally needs to sanction the US hard in whatever ways they can. No working with a fascist government.

This would be awesome. I loved the old BBS days.

[–] troyunrau@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 weeks ago

I was particularly fond of Legend of the Red Dragon and Planets: The Exploration of Space -- door games forever!

[–] jet@hackertalks.com 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Holy shit I might join up. Just seeing the start screen made me feel good and I have felt like shit for days.

If you are a Canadian or Mexican please contact your representatives and have them do a more targeted tariff plan. Target American red states directly! Oil tariffs should be universal but anything made in red states and counties should have a 100% tariff. Force industry and goods to flow through blue areas and Trump's support will crumble.

BC has started to do its part for that, where the province will immediately stop buying liquor products from "red states".

I couldn't be prouder to vote for the BC-NDP last year.

[–] Someone@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Looks like Ontario, Quebec, Manitoba, Newfoundland, and Nova Scotia are also taking the same route (except not restricting it to red states). I don't expect much from Alberta or Saskatchewan but where's New Brunswick's and PEI's stance on this?

[–] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

I'm proud of you too! That was certainly a butt clenching election.

I want to apologize and let you know I did not vote for palpatine and don't understand why anyone would. Especially given our version has video of him shooting lightening from his hand. Granted before the election he did say he did not know anything about the dark side handbook that his chums where passing around and was not going to follow it. So I mean he did decieve us kinda.

[–] Kingofthezyx@lemm.ee 9 points 2 weeks ago

Somehow, Trump returned.

[–] Cracks_InTheWalls@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

My choice, with a lot of effort and no talent, so apologies for the jpeg

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That is epic Canadiana. Props for including Cyril Sneer in the background.

Lol, thanks! The second I saw "what is your cancon choice", I looked at my Raccoons screencaps and thought this is my time.

[–] Big_Boss_77@lemmynsfw.com 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 weeks ago

Relevant, but not cancon. You're on lemmynsfw, so maybe you could find something on the Canadian owned PornHub?

[–] nokturne213@sopuli.xyz 10 points 2 weeks ago

Give into the trade wars you knob.

[–] Jiggus@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago

I may be out of line here, but I think we need to forge stronger alliances with China and the EU. Yank, no thanks.
