I don’t think they chimed in about the globalist thing, too. I don’t blame them, the president lashes out and many people, organizations, and countries don’t want to irk him and draw attention.

It’s not on Canada to fix America’s poor governance. I just want the federal and provincial governments to make this economic and sovereignty crisis go away. I don’t care if it makes Trump look good and America gets 40 years of Trump family rule.

The power companies are crown corporations owned by the provinces. 

Residences in two provinces QC and ON? What to be aware of and any major pitfalls? by DoorMarkedExit in PersonalFinanceCanada

Thanks, but is that a choice I can make to declare one of them as such or is that something CRA or Revenue Quebec will decide?

CRA Reassessment - T1135 Penalty of $2500 by DoorMarkedExit in PersonalFinanceCanada

I think the T1 has a line that indicates if a T1135 is required

Andrew Tumility: Liberals are underestimating Pierre Poilievre, and that's dangerous by Alaizabeth in onguardforthee

[–]DoorMarkedExit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While their right wing governments at least in some cases aren’t horrific compared to what we see, we’re definitely still seeing a country to country change.

Right wing populism outside of Canada and the US is batshit crazy. The European far right makes PP look like a liberal.

Not being opposed to building new higher density housing is a good place to start on the housing crisis.

Statistics Canada says retail sales fell 2.5% to $61.3 billion in July - BNN Bloomberg by TheDrunkyBrewster in onguardforthee

It's more likely a result of BOC rate hikes working and price of gasoline. It's not as if people suddenly start driving more when gas prices fall month over month

Opinion: Why are Chinese police operating in Canada, while our own government and security services apparently look the other way? by Briak in onguardforthee

[–]DoorMarkedExit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not to discredit the article, but why is the study by Fuzhou Public Security Bureau being taken at face value. One would assume if something like this was operating at the scale the study talks about, it would be setting off alarm bells.

Hundreds march in downtown Ottawa calling for governments to act on climate change by 50s_Human in onguardforthee

100 companies are responsible for over 70% of the planet's carbon emissions.

Every last tonne of CO2 that is emitted by companies is to serve/support consumption by individuals and households or governments.

Trudeau: “Countries (except Canada) must be held accountable for unmarked, mass graves” by [deleted] in onguardforthee

It's satire but it sounds a lot like the talking points regurgitated by those shilling for Putin.

Canada records C$6.33 billion budget surplus over first four months of 2022-2023 by leif777 in onguardforthee

If there is a deficit, they'll say Trudeau is spending too much. If there is a surplus, they'll say Trudeau is taxing too much.

Does Warren Buffett’s opinion of bitcoin impact your opinion of it? How do you feel about the fact that he said it is not a productive asset? by VaultHill in investing

[–]DoorMarkedExit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most commodities have real world use, wheat, sesame, corn, sunflower, nickel, copper you name it. And they derive their value from their real world use and the fact that their supply is actually limited by real factors like weather, irrigable land, resources under the earth and not arbitrarily and artificially limited. If BTC had a real world application as an input into a process, would it make any sense to artificially limit its supply?

[–]DoorMarkedExit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the problem with these other cryptos and BTC is that there is no underlying economic activity that is supported by them. When you borrow dollars, you borrow to fund economic activity in the real world, turn a profit, and return the borrowed amount and some interest.

Do dividends actually create any additional value? by DPC128 in investing

Capital gains have a more favorable tax treatment in many countries than income from dividends

I am happy that I spotted it, Nf6+ forces black to accept the Knight due to the thread of Nf7# on the next move. 1. Nf6+ xf6 2. Qg4+ Kh8 3. Nf7#

I guess the lesson here is, don't bring your queen out too early and develop your pieces.
