I can't name a single Canadian bank.

TD Bank is usually the first one to come up here, but that is probably because they bought naming rights to the Boston Garden.

US banks are allowed to do business in Canada, provided they comply with Canadian banking regulations. Canadian banking regulations are more stringent however (no major bank failures since 1996!), which combined with the relatively small market and the fact that there is already enough competition between Canadian banks in Canada mean that US banks are not really interested in trying to enter the Canadian market.
 
Marj loves the tariffs. apparently they are because Canada and Mexico allow drug cartels to flourish.


Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene
@RepMTG

Today, the United States will implement 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada, under President Trump, in order to pressure both countries to stop the cartels from murdering Americans through cartel manufactured and trafficked fentanyl into America.

It is absolutely absurd that our neighboring countries, Mexico and Canada, allow cartels to flourish and kill Americans EVERYDAY!!

Under Biden and Democrats, our borders were wide open to murderers, rapists, terrorists, child predators, and the cartel’s massive billion dollar human and drug trafficking international operations and America suffered!

No more, it’s time it ends!

I fully support and thank President Trump for taking the necessary steps to defend and protect our great country and people!!

the Dow, which is down nearly 800 points again today after a brutal day yesterday, has lost 2.8 percent of its value over the last 5 days with no relief in sight.

In London the FTSE lost some of it's gains from yesterday falling 100 points as US tariffs begin but rallied before the close.

Wow Trump's following the Economic School of Liz Truss.
 
Trudeau on US banks in Canada: "I heard he talked about banking again this morning in a tweet, which doesn't make any sense because 16 banks are currently active in Canada holding about $113b worth of assets in this country, so American banks are alive and well and prospering in Canada. It's an example of not really being able to see what he wants ... what he wants is to see a total collapse of the Canadian economy, because that'll make it easier to annex us."
 
Trudeau to Donald: "Now I want to speak directly to one specific American. Donald ... it's not in my habit to agree with the Wall Street Journal, but Donald, they point out that even though you're a very smart guy, this is a very dumb thing to do. We two friends fighting is exactly what our opponents around the world want to see."
 
Kraznov is promoting his speech tonight saying that it is going to be wild. I'm afraid he's going to declare martial law, I hope I'm wrong. However, whatever big announcement he makes is going to be bad for every American that isn't a Maga/Nazi.
I hope the democrats walk out during the speech.
 
Trudeau to the American people: "Canadians are not angry at the American people for this. We don't have anything against Americans, Americans are our neighbors, our friends ... this is a policy decision by the American govt designed to go after the Canadian economy. This is a trade war ... we're gonna choose to not go on vacation in Florida ... and yeah we're probably gonna keep booing the American anthem. But let me tell Americans: we're not booing you ... we're booing a policy that is designed to hurt us. And we're insulted ... we're gonna fight. And we're gonna win."

from wiki:

Trump considered a show business career but instead in 1964 enrolled at Fordham University. Two years later, he transferred to the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, graduating in May 1968 with a Bachelor of Science in economics.

He didn't graduate with what the US folk call 'honors'.
 
Another possible "big news" item for Trump's speech tonight:
War with Canada. Not a trade war, but a violent war.

A revolutionary proposal to open stores that will sell those newfangled groceries the world had never heard of until Dump discovered them in 2024. Imagine the efficiency, being able to just drive up to a store and buy... Whatever groceries are again? I haven't been keeping up on the newest innovations, I just know they used them on some expedition somewhere?
