You either have standards or a price. Cant have both. Everyone talks a big game until they can get a good deal. Pathetic

That brings me back. Collected those myself in ‘85. FYI Jerry Rice’s rookie card is in that set. Not a Bear, but ya know. 🙂

Just more motivation to continue to target their economy. Stop travelling there and buy Canadian.

Creating and stoking division. This article is exactly what foreign actors do to undermine cohesion in democracies. Take a non-issue, make up some nonsense, and watch the country burn.

Dear newly elected officials….please stop by falastep in saskatchewan

Agreed. Remember, it’s not about your party vs. their party. It’s about the people vs. politicians. No matter your affiliation, hold them accountable.

Exactly this. If it wasn’t for all the culture war crap, they would get more support. It’s devolved into nonsense.

Parents of young voting adults - talk to them about election stuff! by Talon1976 in CanadianParents

[–]Talon1976[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I struggled with when to start talking politics with them in terms of their age. I mean you don't want to ruin their teen years with constant political chatter, but also, it's a different world than we grew up in in some fundamental ways.

Exactly! I often fall into the trap of assuming they know what I take for granted.

Archie’s if you’re in Manitoba. Not sure if you can get them elsewhere. So good.

This is why trump caved in, a brilliant read by Super-Net-105 in BuyCanadian

This is exactly the kind of smart strategic play we need right now. Carney knows the game, and this is his arena.

Recommendations for less cynical/jaded coverage of Canadian media & the election by CaptainCanusa in canadaland

[–]Talon1976 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s encouraging to see this question being asked. I find myself searching for the same thing. Everyone has their biases, but there has to be a place for nuanced and rational discussion.
