There are lots of derogatory terms I could use but I would not say you are racist. Max Bernier yes.Wow. I’m white, does that make me a racist?
I don’t need to see you to confirm you are an idiot.
Yoda, while I agree, and would love to see this, a realist would look at that as unrealistic.Maybe this is an opportunity to get local with supply instead of importing? A chance to promote our own companies and products? I know we can’t do all products but maybe some change to local would be a good thing.
Kinda sorry I askedYoda, while I agree, and would love to see this, a realist would look at that as unrealistic.
Firstly, that would be a VERY long term plan. Years. If you consider right now local produce production, for example, is not enough to cover the needs of the many, the "community" (Canada, in this case) would need to ramp up infrastructure in order to feed every mouth. While I'd love to see more reliance where possible on Canadian farmers / greenhouses, it's not happening overnight....especially with Cannabis farms buying up a lot of the greenhouses and converting them to weed production.
Besides, the laws of supply / demand will rule. Even if every Canadian committed to shopping local, our local prices will skyrocket.
That's cool I have the answer! See, I come prepared to these discussions. I do hate always being right, it's tiresome, but here we go again.
The solution is, revert back to having exemption status for all American truckers to cross, and while we are at it, hope the US does not enact a similar 2x vaccination policy. Put in place stipulations such as time limits to deliver a load and pick up (there may already be such procedures in place) if you must, but just revert back. Simple. Dr. Henry has already acknowledged that BC is quickly moving into dealing w/ COVID as we would the common cold, anyways. In the beginning, they told us to get to (IIRC) 80% vaccination status, and the many will carry the few who choose not to vaccinate. Those people will get sick, if they haven't already. They will develop natural immunity, if they haven't already.
That's the solution. Live in the now, plan for the future. Canada, evaluate your strength of position in firing up a trade war. We do not own the high ground here, we occupy the low ground.
@utah , I think we know the guy!
Are you one of these guys that lacks the ability to think for oneself?Breaking news... Donald Trump Jr supports the truckers protest.
Dont give the administration any ideas Mr Base.We are very fortunate here on TTP, we get to read your opinions for free, not like the suckers on substack who pay for newsletters extolling the virtues of drinking bleach and urine and taking parasite medicine intended for horses.
