I don't usually wish anyone ill but... well, damn it... I wish nothing but ill upon that man. No one individual should ever hold that much of the worlds wealth. Complete morons (even if they're some kind of market savant) should probably not even be let out of the backroom.

This bit of news sounds great on the same day I see the story about New Brunswick kicking it's Twitter habit. Let's hope that's the first domino.

Too much greed, hate, and ignorance from this one source. I hope to see it slip into the dust bin of history.

I’m also not big on wishing people ill…

Gravity and bad decisions usually handle that on their own.

What matters is exactly what you said Bill... institutions stepping back and starving the beast.

New Brunswick ditching Twitter?

That’s how you vote without yelling.

With regards to the American market, let's hope Canada takes advantage of the European and Asian technologies.

Exactly, Ron.

This isn’t about picking sides or waving flags.

It’s about being smart.

If Europe or Asia has better tech and they’re willing to build it here with Canadian workers, Canadian materials, and Canadian paycheques… why wouldn’t we?

That’s not disloyal.

That’s just good business.

Build it here.

Keep the jobs here.

Keep the money here.

The rest is noise.

I would have thought that the US auto industry would have learned SOMETHING from when they doubled down on gas guzzlers & leaned on tariffs to save them, before being shoved aside by the Japanese.

I have a US built VW ID4. It’s definitely been a learning curve but glad I bought it.
