Carbon pollution at work Donny. Maybe you are too demented to see it!

[-] the_xboxkiller@lemmy.zip 6 points 8 hours ago

[-] k0e3@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 hours ago

So is rape and they made him President.

Republican trailer trash.

[-] FaceDeer@fedia.io 59 points 17 hours ago

Really. He wants to set the precedent that other nations can recover damages caused by your country's environmental impact?

[-] nulluser@lemmy.world 14 points 15 hours ago

Yes, please!

When the tariffs started, much of the USA was on fire. California, Portland, and the Northeast were all facing major wildfires. In Canada, there was an open public discussion about whether we should send firefighting assistance to an administration that had become openly hostile toward us. In the end, we did what good neighbours do. We helped. I do not think, a year later, the favour will be returned

I'd like to thank the Canadian firefighters for helping us out, and I am deeply sorry we aren't returning the favor. We're all in this world together and we (the US) should act like it.

[-] OttoVonNoob@lemmy.ca 12 points 14 hours ago

Thann you, I understand its not all American's so don't worry. Things will get better, its just going to take some paitence and good people stepping up.

[-] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 31 points 18 hours ago

Did he forget they were struck down and that they had to do a flat 10% tariff for everyone under a different rule?

Or is he just forcing "tariffs" anyway that are actually just bribes?

Both sound plausible.

[-] aarch0x40@piefed.social 23 points 18 hours ago

Tariff is the only threat he knows besides bombs!!

[-] mrmisses@lemmy.world 9 points 17 hours ago

Did he forget

I mean, yeah, probably. Dudes got dementia

He can conduct "investigations" like the ones Dubya, Obama, Trump and Biden conducted that determined the extremely highly sought BC softwood was being dumped on the US.

A canadian firefighter just died in colorado

[-] GreenBeard@lemmy.ca 22 points 17 hours ago

Fuck him. 300% export tax on oil. Lets see how fast his tariffs come off.

[-] TheBloodFarts@lemmy.ca 9 points 15 hours ago

The traitor premier of Alberta Marlaina Smith unfortunately enjoys the taste of Trump's diaper too much to agree to such an export tax

[-] GreenBeard@lemmy.ca 7 points 14 hours ago

And as an Albertan, fuck her too.

[-] TheBloodFarts@lemmy.ca 2 points 14 hours ago

Fuck her a whole bunch

[-] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

Thank you for using her given name!

[-] Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 6 points 16 hours ago

And potash.

[-] adespoton@lemmy.ca 6 points 13 hours ago

Wait. Wildfires are acts of God. Is Trump saying he’s against God blanketing the US?

[-] Bebopalouie@lemmy.ca 10 points 17 hours ago

I am sure the orange rapist provides no restitution to people for having to breath his poop spores that are flying all around them when in his proximity.

[-] watson387@sopuli.xyz 2 points 4 hours ago

Poop spores ftw

[-] who@feddit.org 9 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago)

Yet another ruse for Trump and his cronies to leverage in amassing power by bleeding working-class Americans dry.

[-] HubertManne@piefed.social 3 points 14 hours ago

[-] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 3 points 15 hours ago

Someone tell him about carbon taxes.
