Talking about trade.....

[Happytrails]

sumdumguy- YOU are assuming Diaper don is a normal person, he IS NOT. This has F##K ALL to do with our border and fentanyl. He creates Chaos for Attention, he needs lots of it and can never get enough. Our leaders have to get over this thought that somehow spending money on Our border is going to change his mind. He is a Coward but knows he can pick fights with his ALLIES like Canada, Europe, Nato, etc but notice how he PRAISES Putin, Kim Jon and Pres xi . The fentanyl All comes from China but he only put a 10 % tariff on them?!?!
WTF

China already had 25% or more tariffs. Trump is putting on another 10%

Don't believe newguys figures at all. The RCMP caught guys the other day in Sask with 30 some pounds of fentanyl.

New guy is probably on the payroll too. Who believes those numbers? not me for a minute.

For one, the feds don’t even examine the cargo leaving Canada so how can they throw numbers around. Stolen cars are pretty hard to hide and they can’t even stop them. Both countries have to collaborate and communicate about a concerted co-effort to eradicate drug labs and drug transport. Some countries have the death penalty for drug lords, not saying we ever would but maybe 20 years of hard labour in the great white North would cure the demons.

I’m all for hard labour far up north for our jail system, might even reform some of those that are repeat offenders. They have it much too good now, and have too many rights. The would have a hard time getting their drugs if it was far enough up north also. Definitely shouldn’t be able to vote.

Siberia has worked well.
No big fences required.
No escapees heard from again.

Might be something we could contract out to China or Russia?

Las Vegas seems to pick them up and take them off to a gulag somewhere.

[shtferbrains]

Why the hell aren’t these figures all over the media. Trump pulls numbers out of mid air and people are stupid enough to believe him.

I still maintain we live in a bubble of our own mind's manufacture.
Organized crime? International influence? Heck, 30'000 guns from US and you're paying billions to get rid of the legal ones. Canadians need to get expand their mind. A lot.
Americans not the only narrow minded naive.

RCMP says in Canada there are 4000 organized crime groups in the fentanyl trade. Probably handling more than 43 lbs.

"Statistics don't lie, but liars use statistics"

Last summer there were 4 major drug Superlabs busted most in southern BC.
One had 30,000kg of chemicals to make meth and fentanyl A tridem load?
Saw one report they had near a Billion dollars worth of inventory.
The Mexican Cartels live without prosecution in Mexico because they buy influence right to the top.
Some argue they are running the country.

Why do people downplay the seriousness of this issue ??
Why spread misinformation Newguy ?
Canada has a major problem, now’s the time to fit it
Should have been dealt with years ago
like saying the “Budget will balance itself” , no worries
well now we are so far in debt , it will take decades to resolve
