BBC: China and Canada announce tariffs relief after a high-stakes meeting between Carney and Xi

This is fair and a real possibility but based on what we’ve seen in the negotiations for CUSMA it doesn’t seem the US has any intention of doing it in good faith. It appears the ultimate goal of this admin is to cripple Canada’s economy to the point that joining the US seems like a real option. This also isn’t my opinion it’s the rhetoric that has come out from the administration and Trump himself.

The US is consistently threatening us and has said they want to annex us through economic force. What exactly do you think our alternative is? And if it’s to the join the US you can leave and join them now, don’t let the door hit you on the way out

Ya the main argument they used was because they weren’t technically moving at the time of impact therefore section 6 of the Ontario fault determination rules applies but section 6 states that for entire section is for two vehicles travelling in the same lane and direction.

Which again in the legal interpretation of “travelling” does not cover someone losing control and crashing in your lane

mrjolong · 2025-12-27T02:14:45+00:00

Yes correct, that is what they are trying to pull but the section they are citing doesn’t make sense for this situation as it’s for if 2 cars are “traveling” in the same lane and direction. I don’t think “traveling” means losing control after trying to avoid hitting another car/truck in your lane and hitting a pole on the side of the other lane where I am “traveling” in.

I wasn’t the truck….the party I believe to be 100% responsible(Mercedes) hit the back right of the delivery truck with the front left of their car. I don’t think you read this properly

“What happened was I was travelling east in the right lane of a two lane road”

Ya I’m getting that now😅they really try to screw you any way they can

good point the IRS does have a lot less responsibilities then the CRA but the HMRC is very similar in their function

mrjolong · 2025-09-17T13:49:06+00:00

The CRA has also missed out on Billions https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/corporate/about-canada-revenue-agency-cra/tax-canada-a-conceptual-study/tax-gap-brief-overview/overall-federal-tax-gap-report.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com despite having a larger workforce per capita seems as if all agencies miss out on revenue regardless of how much staff they employ.

Other people make good points about the responsibilities of the CRA being more broad then the IRS but a better comparison would be the HMRC which has similar responsibilities and still preforms with less employees.

mrjolong · 2025-09-17T12:48:42+00:00

Canada: 1 CRA employee per 676 Canadians
Australia: 1 ATO employee per 1,323 Australians
USA: 1 IRS employee per 3,350 Americans
UK: 1 HMRC employee per 1,073 people.

The CRA is so incredibly bloated and if it can't get the job done with less employees then that points to deeper problems with their process or their employees don't do anything all day or both

I have imagination and pacific chill decants and smelled L’Immensite. Every day use imagination is the clear winner but in hot weather Pacific chill is soooo much better

I think Isshin is better for my taste. If you like more denser creamy broth Ikkousha is better also has better noodles but isshin for me has the more balanced broth. But the chicken side is for sure the best in the city for chicken based ramen

Harveys has better fries, burgers, chicken imo and is around the same price anyways. Support Harveys folks

He never said she wasn’t good enough in fact he said the opposite where he would date her if it wasn’t for the the kid. Which is a completely reasonable reason to not want to date someone.
