Canada to cut off electricity to US states: "Need to feel the pain"
-
Maybe you guys should just kick out the traitors that very obviously work for a foreign government.
-
This headline makes it sound way more imminent than I've been lead to believe. The first order of business is just messing with things like Florida orange farms and Kentucky bourbon, then we might escalate.
-
Hurting New York will only make Trump more popular with his base.
-
Also, they won't be buying anything if they become festive decorations on fences and lampposts across the country.
-
One of Canada's worst politicians says he'll do something useful for once.
Incredible watching the downfall of American hegemony in real-time.
-
Im gonna tell you right now, as a Canadian, we do not care what colour your states are.
-
“sorry” was never a good password anyway
-
That Ozempic chewing orange twat has never physically jumped in his life, let's be honest.
-
Gotta love living in a "democracy" where one team screws over the entire country and the other team cheers out of spite.
-
I guess you proved your own point.

The Rich(TM) want to buy the dip and buy up property (see project 2025). They need the economy to break but not to completely collapse. And then it will "bounce back" enough that they can transfer their USD to other currencies.
Whether trump's fucking stupidity will accomplish that seems REAL questionable.
That said: Massive power outages (also, this is just the equivalent of a state governor with a crackhead brother saying it to appear strong to Canada's conservatives) might be what this country needs to get out en masse in places other than the blue states.

(Copy-pasting from another thread)
I like Cory Doctorow’s plan.
The reason Canada got tariff-free access to sell to the US in the first place? Canada agreed to enforce penalties for tampering with digital locks, following the premise of the Digital Milennium Copyright Act.
If the US is going back on the deal, then Canada should too. Make it legal to jailbreak all US tech.
Doctorow advocating for this plan:
- On Democracy Now
- On his blog
- On his podcast
- In the Ursula Franklin lecture at the University of Toronto’s Innis College (I especially enjoyed this one, but it is the longest)
-
Ford is spineless. I doubt he has the balls to do this
-
Given that Canadians don't typically vote in American elections, I don't see how that has anything to do with us or should affect our decision making.
The USA is tariffing us, not just the red states.
-
Feel free to get on with that angry mobbing.
-
Yes cut the power. Please do it. Let our stupid government realize they are royally fucking up.
-
"to cut" is very different from "could cut"
-
I'd prefer we do more than kick Trump out. Like...guillotine them all.
-
So he’s a big ballsack?
