I feel like if the whitehouse knew, they would stop it if they actually cared to. If they aren’t stopping it, they want the mines there for political purposes or I wouldn’t put it past this administration to put the mines themselves and blame Iran.

Whos to say they didn’t pack some munitions with them anyway? Without another nation checking the ship you just have to take their word for it.

If they had no intelligence of the ammunition situation (doubt) it could be risky to try to board a warship. Not that it justifies anything, just aside from piracy boarding enemy warships isn’t really a thing anymore as far as I’m aware.

You’ll have to get past their robot protectors to even get close to the bunker. They could even drone strike the bunker if you get too close.

You’ll never guess where Isreal got it’s uranium from

I never realized something like infrastructure connecting two nations together was susceptible to private wealth like that, thats ridiculous.

Given our own right wingers would rather seperate an entire province than just join the states themselves, i doubt your rigbt wingers would just walk away from california in this hypothetical scenario

Why would China even care about Canadians playing ice hockey? China has probably made money making hockey equipment or hockey themes toys etc. And even if China did want to ban Hockey do we really think the PM, who played hockey himself, will ban what is probably Canada’s favourite sport just for a trade deal? Does Trump think Chinese boots will hit the ground and stop Canadians from shooting pucks around on frozen ponds?

No way am I trusting an AI fact checker

Its the Canadian way to blame the prime Minister for things that are your premier’s responsibility/fault

Part of why Canada is in this situation is refusal to acknowledge it and “kick the can down the road” policies. And it isn’t all on the feds, provinces and municipalities share a lot of blame as well. It certainly isn’t too late to change but we’d need to make the right choices.

Opening cities to denser development, transit, and walkability would increase housing supply, reduce transportation costs, and could improve our social spaces. This all could help reduce the rising extremist political division, the type of division where you can’t be friends with someone who votes differently and exclussively on that basis.

Canada has it significantly worse than many other nations, and the bigger problem is that housing bubble is the backbone of its economy. Other nations have expensive houses but their economies aren’t as reliant on keeping those houses expensive as Canada’s is.

Okay but pretty much all the numbers are bad. If it was just housing or just price gouging on grocceries we would be fine but the reality is many factors of the economy are working against young & blue collar Canadians.

We also have grocery and telecom monopolies, stagnating wages and poor worker investment and production compared to similar nations. Canada is also experiencing a brain drain as skilled people leave for better cost of living & less taxation.

The first half of my comment was a joke

Go ask a someone under 30 if they can afford a house and get back to me. The RCMP has speculated the next generation may riot when they realize they are poorer than their parents.

He’s moreso pissed that Canada’s economy is failing and he isn’t responsible for it. (Yes the tarrifs hurt Canada’s economy too but their economy was already pretty fucked because for decades Canada’s economy was building and selling housing and not much else.)

You know your situation best but if you do need to arm yourself while protecting others in your house safety equipment like gun safes and trigger locks exist. Depending on the model of gun you may even be able to partially disassemble it and hide the missing piece.

The guy literally has said you’ll never have to vote again and has recently been teasing the idea of skipping the upcoming election. If american streets are still empty of angry citezens after that election is canceled, we are truly cooked.
