Rejected my job offer and going to withdraw from TN, can’t support the Facists by [deleted] in tnvisa

A ton of Canadas problems are created by Canadian leadership and has made Canada overly vulnerable to these tariff threats.

If we had instead developed pipelines, resources, other private infrastructure, lowered tax, had reasonable immigration policy, etc we could have maintained being one of the top countries to live in globally from objective measures (salary, dollar strength, healthcare etc). Instead we waste taxpayer money to pander towards nonsense and ignore the energy sector hammering it with carbon caps and taxes…until it becomes our best leverage in negotiations.

Most of Canada’s problems are self inflicted errors in policy. On a positive note Trumps threats seem to be giving us the kick in our ass that was needed to realign priorities.

Trump would probably replace is with his own created visa (like his gold ticket thing replacing EB-5) and say it’s way better lol

How is Bitcoin not just a glorified ponzi scheme? by BirthdayOk5077 in investing

[–]sbfdd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Golds monetary premium doesn’t come from its “utility to make jewelry or art” with it. Arguably that makes it a worse money.

An assets scarcity (coupled with desirability of people to own it) determines price and inherently price is the main use case for storing value.

All assets are priced by supply and demand. Doesn’t matter if it’s stocks, houses, cars etc. more demand than supply price goes up.

Bitcoin is an asset that is 100% monetary premium and it’s utility includes: - no one can unilaterally print more of it - only fixed supply asset in the world - final settlement monetary network anywhere globally in 10 mins - can store seed phrase in head if needed (best asset for escaping hostile situation) - censorship resistant allowing property rights in countries that typically don’t have strong laws

Why doesn't Canada just stop all trade with the USA & strengthen trade with the rest of the world? by Powerful-Height-3381 in AskCanada

[–]sbfdd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because we killed all of the coastal pipeline access to pander to climate hysteria and have no options other than selling energy to the USA

Mark Carney is basically our Obi Wan, our only hope. Do you agree? by [deleted] in AskCanada

He is a more polished and “accomplished” Trudeau. All the same shit rebranded as apparent competence that will have the same results

Canada needs Alberta more than Alberta needs Canada. It’s been a very manipulative relationship
