Joel Struthers

It's East Coast majority have the voting power in Canada. Obviously, we don't have the same political system as you when it comes to, you know, electoral college and such. But the Canadian, like if you look at the... The numbers right now, Canadians want to change. Trudeau's out. Unfortunately, he's pro not to bore the listeners on Canadian politics because it is boring.

But we're waiting for them to get their shit dialed, find a new leader. So we would, in theory, have a new prime minister that wasn't chosen for by the population. And the problem is there's no one right now to deal with Trump and these potential trade and tariff that are coming in, right? And the issue... He's going hard on that. The thing for me is, you know, I mean...

Trump mentioned there's a, you know, you guys are subsidizing Canada. Now, the fact is, it's kind of the wrong word. We're a tenth of your economy. I believe you guys are at, what, 350 million? We're 41?

So, I mean, we can't afford to buy the same amount of products from you as you do from us. And I think, I don't know the numbers, they can fact check, but I think about 60% of that is crude oil and electricity. And I know for a fact that all your refineries are designed to take either crude oil from Canada or Venezuelan, I believe. If not, they'd have to refurbish them all.

So it's kind of unfair for him to say that you guys are subsidizing Canada. It's just we're not at the same level. We can't afford to buy what you guys buy from us.

Yeah, yeah. He's effective at what he does. And I think he does it purposely, right? He throws a spanner into the wrench. I do too. And then when it comes to negotiations, he gets, you know, half of what he'd been talking about, but that's what he wanted in the first place.

My issue is, as a Canadian, it's embarrassing to watch how we're reacting. And we don't have a leader that has the mandate for the next four years to deal with it effectively. That's what's embarrassing. Alberta, their minister has gone down, Mrs. Smith. She's gone and talked to them. I think she's the sole, you know, One to do so.

Meanwhile, the others just kind of argue between themselves on how we're going to react. But I think it looks poorly in the way I say things. Canada can do better. I don't know. I don't think, you know, I think Trump gets kind of said that his big push is obviously for the cost of living for Americans, right? To improve things.
