Wonderful news. Keep it up even when tariffs are removed. We MUST grow Canadian made for Canadians to purchase.

I think the dealership fires and vandalism are insider jobs. The dealers have unsellable merchandise. An insurance payout is about the best they could hope for.

If anything says “I don’t give a shit about the constitution or laws” this is it. Unless he can use it against someone else, Trump has no time for legality of anything. He doesn’t abide by it if it interferes with his wants.

They never understand that their wages, their benefits, their subsides for their businesses to survive are the “waste” that the right is talking about. To cut “waste’” is to cut all government because government only exists to stop the rape and pillage by a business entity strong enough to be doing it. Why should the food you consume be safe - that cuts into corporate profits. Why should children be educated - that cuts into corporate profits. Etc. If you aren’t the owner of said corporation, you do not matter. Of course Trump needed their ill-informed vote to do what his is doing now. This is exactly what they explicitly voted in favour of, even if they were too dim to understand that.

The Canadian version in our current election is climate change denial. We can’t have any restrictions due to carbon/fossil fuels because that costs money. Even though by not have any restrictions, fossil fuel corporations are shifting 100% of their environmental damage costs on to taxpayers. We don’t get the revenues, we don’t get the profits but we get all the costs. Once again: privatized profits, socialized costs. The status quo of big business.

Please people, if you are going to look at stock prices, look back a year, two, or more. Reddit was slightly up from its 5 year point when in October 2024, like many other stocks, it wildly went up. It isn’t yet back down to the pre-October level. Someone (Musk and fellow billionaires?) have been playing these markets since the last US election to game money out of everyone else. There was no value in the business to justify the jump, just a pump and dump scheme to graft money out of the lower classes/pension portfolios.

I like the people that say it is decline due to the exchange rate. While a favourable exchange rate is nice, a negative one has never impacted travel to this extent. Canadians we can do better - we can get this up to 90% or more of a drop! Go Canada Go.

If it’s biology based, women have 3 and men 2, but straight line would make more sense. But that is only a guess and who knows what the symbols are actually based on.

Most of the trips that have happened in February and March were planned and often paid for before that time and couldn’t easily be changed or cancelled so many went ahead. There will be a continuing drop off. Airlines are reassigning their planes because so few Canadians are booking trips to the USA, even as a stopover to anther country. Some border businesses have already lost 50% or more of their business.

It was only a girl that died. They might have cared if it was a BOY.

It depends on how conveniently the chargers are located. If you have a smaller battery and can go 200km you’ll need a charging station every 190km and mountainous terrain will change those distances as well. You many end up charging sooner than needed in order to get to the next charging spot. In reality it isn’t as bad as it sounds. I travel the BC interior with my short range EV and the savings in fuel make it worthwhile to stop more often. Even when I pay the high speed charging rates, it is about 1/4 the cost of gasoline per km but takes 15% longer time to get to destination vs our gas vehicle.
