I second that: DON'T buy from the USA @mark-carney.bsky.social @liberalca.bsky.social
Don't buy American @liberalca.bsky.social
For months now we have boycott Ted buying anything American. We will not go to the US. We cancelled a trip to California and instead went to the UK, on the way back spent a week in Quebec and in Ontario.
I am so glad Canada stepped up early on to slap down this sad sack of a leader the US is enduring. While it may have caused more pain for Canada to find other resources, it would have taught any other leader to withdraw his stupid tariffs, but not ours. He sticks to his stupid like stink on 💩
Any Potus. Republican or Democrat who Lost a Military Contract worth Trillions would have had the good grace to Resign. If the administration had the Balls. They would have told him to Resign. The EU is Buying Military Hardware from Europe. Worth TRILLIONS 🇮🇪🇪🇺🇨🇦
America has never built any war ships 🚢 or Submarines for Canada. trumpie is LYING AGAIN. 🇮🇪🇪🇺🇨🇦
Canada has aircraft manufacturing, why not license the Gripen or Rafale and build fuselages using domestic aluminum and steel?
If we end up buying those F35s, or even the rest, the Liberals can count on losing our vote to the NDP. Waste of money for unreliable jets not made for the Arctic.
🎯💯
We need both. To be honest, the larger threat is still 🇨🇳 & 🇷🇺 dragging us into a war in Taiwan or Korea. The 🇸🇪 jets are made with 🇺🇸 engines so there is no deal until new engines can be procured & that will be a decade min. We need Grippens to replace our defensive F-18’s but F-35’s to go abroad.
And i hate to say it, because i love NDP provincially in Manitoba, but they aren’t ready to run federally. They want more nurses which is great, but we need a wealthy economy protected by a military first to spend our money on our goals safely and securely in peace.
Let’s go Canada 🇨🇦
Everyone likes to point out the spending % but 🇨🇦’s & 🇵🇱’s GDP is not comparable & our needs are much different. So complaining about 🇨🇦 is unfair IMO. 2% of Canada’s GDP ≈ $42.4 billion 5% of Poland’s GDP ≈ $44.5 billion 🇨🇦 is going to 5% so STFU world. You will see our ships everywhere soon.
We don't send money to a hostile country that wants to destroy our economy in order to annex us. I'm no expert in negotiations, but buying defense equipment ($B) from the US would seem really strange to me. Canada has allies all over the world. It doesn't need the US
