If the west does split from the east the east will suffer the most. Alberta is 10% of the population and it contributes 15% to the GDP of
the entire county. If Alberta goes it alone it'll become the richest country, per capita than any country in the world.

The east had a case of FAFO.

Mamdani is probably exactly what they want. They want Democrat? Here' the ultimate Democrat. In reality, he's probably not as bad as the media makes him sound.

Losers only wanted Democrats because they made socialist promises.

Like all socialists, Mamdani wants to take wealth and give it to the people who didn't earn it. And like all socialist systems, it collapses because the people who make wealth leave.

To me it's just another reason to stay away from NYC. I'll add it to my already mile-long list, right next to "nowhere to take a piss."

Exactly. Let the socialist enclaves collapse like they always do, then
go in later and pick up the pieces.

I like that wording. From now on when people say "How far is to to NYC from here?" I'll say something like "The Socialist Enclave? It depends on which way you go."

Canada still has a way lower national debt that the USA. Is that because Parliament members are actually descent? Do they care about Canada? Or do they suck just as bad our congress?

Debt needs to be looked at from the size of the economy... US is measured in the Trillions where as Canada is in the Billions.

Canada use to have a balanced budget... Back in the 90's the Liberals voted to cut spending and the Conservative looked at raising taxes... Bi-Partisan kind of thing... There is more than 2 parties in Canada... but this was agreed upon throughout the political spectrum.

In walks Justin Trudeau and he spent the sh!t out of the tax payer's money claiming that the budget will balance itself, we're finding out they don't

The US has a few things going for it... Well Trump and the US economy... But the US dollar is a/the Reserve Currency... Other countries use it for trading purposes... ie Oil is traded @ X amout of US dollars per barrel...

There were people trying to thwart that with the creation of BRICS currency... Look at Muammar Gaddafi... He wanted to use gold rather than the US dollar and he's dead...

So, what I'm saying is that... Canada's debt is YUGE <---- as Trump would say.

If you look at it with a little more than dollar amount you would agree.

Canadian dollar is trading @~ 30 cents less than the US dollar... this tells you what the investors think of Canada's monetary policies.

Last point... In the past couple months investors have moved over 900 Billion dollars to the US markets from Canada... because investors see the opportunity south of the border.

As you know I have sold investments in the past... Licensed in Canada and the US. There are Mutual Funds that have more capital in a single fund than the entire economy of Canada.

Canada needs the US to survive. I hope for Canada's sake they can kiss and makeup.

I see. So comparing the dollar amounts doesn't show the full picture...

but this was agreed upon throughout the political spectrum.

...and the Conservative party doesn't have a good track record for being responsible with money either

It's no secret to the investors that puppetted regimes are a threat to profitability. Even if they don't like Trump, they like putting their money in a safe place.

I've been telling Alan to kiss it for the longest time but he hasn't come around yet. ;)

That's right... Canada will be a life time trying to dig themselves out of the hole Trudeau put us through.

...and the Conservative party doesn't have a good track record for being responsible with money either

The big takeaway was the fact that in the 90's the left and right got together to balance the budget and pay down the debt... Together... in 2025 the left and right are retarded and will never work together on this important issue.

They balanced the budget when the debt was at a "Normal" level... Trudeau, like Biden, spent money quicker than they could print it.

Things need to be fixed and quickly!!!

Investors are whores they go where the money is...
