I wonder if they could refuse to put tariffs on. Not that it would make much difference. They're a small market. It would be more than just words on a paper.

Too bad. We could use a competitor to Tesla.

 

I see that Canada's EV car, the Arrow 2.0 is showing at a global trade fair in Germany. The prototype has been around for a couple of years. Is it any closer to the production phase?

 

We just got back from 7 weeks in Europe and I was really sorry we hadn't put on any Canadian tags on our backpacks or clothes. People (Canadians included) are hesitant to talk to you and they treat you with caution or hostility until they find out you're Canadian.

Why are libraries selling books? Is it possible somebody mistranslated the word librairie (meaning bookstore in French) as library?

Well, he united Canada as it's never been united before, inspired a wave of Canadian patriotism, caused the rest of the world to shower us with support, raised the Liberal Party from its death bed, and now he's helping to solve our health care problems. Trump is amazing. (tic)

But pay a lot less in insurance also. Plus a lot fewer lawsuit hassles.

Too bad. Trevor Noah's gig was unforgettable.
