You know, people who aren't very bright can usually easily make up for that by just being diligent, such as by reading a bit more before posting. People who aren't very bright and who are committed to ignorance because it confirms their ideological biases have a much harder time figuring things out. I see that's where you're at, so you're not worth interacting with further. Hopefully you overcome that hurdle some day.

Good day.

Actually, I read several more articles about her before I posted that, because I wanted to find out more. She moved to Canada in 2014, she is apparently a PR, and she seems to love Canada. Maybe you should check your xenophobia and read more before you post something.

From what I read, she moved to Canada more than 10 years ago.

It prevents tariffs on inputs, which lowers costs of goods sold for products sold outside the US. Goods sold into the US would still be tariffed, but if the inputs are largely from China, it would still likely be cheaper to manufacture outside the US, not pay the 125% tariffs on inputs, and deal with the lower tariff rate into the States.

I mean, if your costs on inputs are going to go up from 125% tariffs by being in the US, but you can manufacture somewhere that the US is only charging 10% tariffs, it's a strong incentive to move manufacturing to that low-tariff destination and only face a 10% tariff on what your selling.

What works for any specific company would come down to their own mix of inputs, target markets, and other factors.

The funniest thing about this is, if you're a US manufacturer with a lot of inputs from China and you're selling to a global market, the smartest thing to do now is very likely going to be moving your manufacturing outside of the US.

That was his job application.

All Trump's demands to harden the border security suddenly make sense to me. It was never about fentanyl. It was just for literally everything else after destroying America's trade relations with the world. 😂

She should stop being such a snowflake. ❄️

I miss boring Canadian politics. I have never felt a sense of a Canadian election being so consequential before. The movement that has captured the US is genuinely dangerous, and if it captures Canada too, it's going to take us fully along for the ride.

So, it's not affecting Canada's ability to have a free and fair vote, but they leave that to very end of the article while using an earlier part of the article to platform Micheal Chong saying this is China working to get Carney elected.

They also totally neglected to include a comment from Freeland, who is the other person they say was previously targeted by the group.

That is some bad journalism in the midst of an election.

Do better, CBC.

It's not just X. All the big social media platforms are flooded with bot networks now. It's impossible to engage genuinely in public discourse on them with accounts you don't personally know. The well of social media is being actively poisoned every day by manipulative bad actors.
