Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Enacting tariffs against our trading partners, and excellent neighbors, as well as allies, is an act of war. It puts America in 'national security' peril. We are not being attacked by Canada or Mexico. It's putin's Russia you need to be concerned about, you orange cancer.
In Trumps addled mind, Canada not buying US milk is a national security threat.
That's giving him way too much credit; he clearly doesn't care about national security.
Look Mark, can I call you Mark? I've got a mangled tiny penis, and I compensate for it in many different and weird ways. Sometimes it's raping woman or girls. Other times, it is saying and doing awful racist things. Sometimes it is just doing nonsensical things. Mark, the girls in the pee pee tape laughed at it. Anyways, that's why Canada has to pay 35% tariffs.
Jeebus, I died. Lol

Why not now? Why wait till Aug 1? Just make it so.
You know why? He's fishing for more concessions.
Canada should just say fuck it and raise the digital sale tax and then fling fentanyl across the border with trebuchets.
Stock. Market. Manipulation.
lets reinstate that digital sales tax and triple it, fuck em.
Yes, nobody should do any accommodation to trump. You only loose. He will demand more and make the same threats again, typical bully.

Er, “instead of caving to our unreasonable demands, they’ve responded in kind.”
It’s like Russia and Ukraine. Trump, if you want to work with Canada, just remove the trade barriers.

Good thing they dropped the digital service tax for US companies...
Yeah right, what a bullshit theater...
i.e. his rich buddies called him up and said "we need/want more money, go manipulate the market again" to which Trump said "sure i'll fuck with Canada some more"
that's all this is. Carney needs to stop playing nice and start up the digital service tax again.
🌮
I just want my country to treat our citizens and allies right. Canada did nothing against us. Sure they did get us hooked on a few of their musicians and introduced pizza with pineapple, but that's friend dick moves not enemy dick moves.
Is that the art of the deal or petulant flailing?
Or? Didn't you mean "is".
I think in this case it's yet another example of brazen market manipulation.
Let’s go Taco!
Canadians were mega pissed at americans back in March. I'm not sure how much lower we can sink in their estimation. 0% favorability is coming up quick.

I thought he already put tariffs on us? And then again?
Pissing into the wind.

In violation of the trade agreement HE negotiated just a couple years ago.
Don’t worry - TACO 🌮
I don’t understand how so many countries just take this shit. Does the US economy have that strong a hold on your country that you are scared to stand up for your people? How shitty of a leader do you have to be to not have a contingency in place for something like this?

Carney: looks like it's time to start dumping US bonds again.
Carney needs to call them out and publicly state that the taxes are never going to end because Trump is using them as a fundraising scheme.
Best he can do is cut funding for health care to fund a new military industrial complex.
I'd have more respect for our Canadian leaders if even ONE of them would just stand up at a podium and say "nope...we're ignoring it. Everyone knows it's a pump and dump scheme to deflate and reinflate stocks. And in a week he'll be removing them."
Everyone KNOWS he's a fucking grifter, but politicians don't want to say it out loud.

A guy walks over to his friend's friend's house and tells him to pay up or else. The reasonable response would be to spit in his face and tell him to get bent.
Trump's policy decisions killed those people in Texas & Epstein helped him and other sick rich monsters rape kids
Boy: Do not try and bend the Trump. That's impossible. Instead... only try to realize the truth.
Neo: What truth?
Boy: There is no Trump.
Neo: There is no Trump?
Boy: Then you'll see, that it is not the Trump that bends, it is only yourself.
