Raumdeuter, Basilico Canada backs away from China 😂

Politics is funny
Do you believe Carney went back to China to cancel the deal he made, or dump was presenting you with a deal Carney never made?

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said Sunday his country has no intention of pursuing a free trade deal with China. He was responding to U.S. President Donald Trump's threat to impose a 100% tariff on goods imported from Canada if America's northern neighbor went ahead with a trade deal with Beijing.

Carney said his recent agreement with China merely cuts tariffs on a few sectors that were recently hit with tariffs.

The prime minister said under the free trade agreement with the U.S. and Mexico there are commitments not to pursue free trade agreements with nonmarket economies without prior notification

It's easy to forget actions have consequences, and think posts on Nairaland by non-voters elect rulers. This Republican candidate is finding out wgat, as many others soon might.

If it wasn't that he couldn't look his daughter in the eye, it sure would have been that he couldn't look voters in the eyes when he was campaigning. It's after all unlikely that most anywhere would gladly elect a government that approves of murdering its citizens in broad daylight because it wants to get rid of non-citizens.

A top Republican candidate for Minnesota governor has dropped out of the race, sharply criticizing what he called a “federal retribution on the citizens of our state” amid the Trump administration’s intensified immigration enforcement operations – which sparked public outrage after US agents’ killings of Alex Pretti and Renee Good in Minneapolis.

Humans have different brains and different viewpoints. I know children on Nairaland share the same brain. Sometimes, see things from others’ point of view.
So. You were just seeing other points of views with different brains and different viewpoints?

I wonder why.

“Today, we are here to discuss how we can work together to deter violence against Christian communities, prioritising counter-terrorism, insecurity, investigation of attacks, and holding perpetrators accountable,” she said.

She added that the focus would include reducing killings, forced displacement and abductions of Christians, especially in north-central Nigeria, where religiously linked violence has been persistent.

America is supposedly the land of the free where the republicans argue that we have the right to bear arms and that they are willing to defend that right with their blood and the blood of their school aged children.

Yet they suddenly okay with a legally armed non threatening citizen being summarily executed for a right they’ve claimed for decades that we are entitled to. Just because he doesn’t agree with their dear leader.

May whatever evil you guys support never depart from your lives. Amen

So they will call you aside to ask if you are into drug

Abeg negodu
So, you will just assume they think you are a drug dealer? Kind of shows how little you think of your Nigerian self, don't you think?

How would you explain them hiring numerous Nigerians in non-drug dealing jobs? Or do you think intelligent people go around thinking Kemi Badenoch, Lord Victor Adebowale, Baroness Martha Osamor and Victor Olisa and my very self etc etc etc are drug dealers too?

I think you should just admit you have not got a clue what you speak of, because they do interview Nigerians for jobs before hiring us, and those jobs are not to deal drugs!

While I understand your opinion, saying your country first, doesn't mean you can't assist others . Just like we say we should care for ourselves before others. That doesn't mean we don't care for others . But when you care for others and they don't appreciate it, will you continue to show that care or love? It's like feeding some of your friends and they still go back to plan evil against you. Would you still love to energise them to harm you?
First. Dump does not care for others. All he cares about is himself, and even his America First looks more like dump first!

He is not caring about Ukraine, and nor does he care about Gaza or Venezuela or the United Nations, and is only looking for personal gain.

But you please continue believing he "care[s] for others and they don't appreciate it". My hope is he or his minions win another term so folks like you can really see what he's about and get to live with the consequences.

According to the Quran Surah 33 vs 21, Muslims have an excellent model in the messenger of Allah, Mohammed, implying that the true Muslim lives as Mohammed himself lived.
And where in the entire Surah 33, where Mohammed is talking about reacting to enemies who invaded you is Mohammed telling anyone to go kill people who don't believe as he did?

Would you like to argue that Mohammed also killed the unbelievers that he traded with too?

Seriously, I'm very glad you are not a Muslim. If you were you'd more likely be preaching the boko haram version, which is as uninformed as yours is!

Some arguments are unnecessary. If you have been abroad, then you must have probably been suspected as someone into drug as a Nigerian.
I do live abroad, and no one suspects me "as someone into drug as a Nigerian", or at least those who engage with me don't.

That might of course be because those who engage with me are not that stup¹d and ïgnorant enough to generalise like you do, and those who are stup¹d and ïgnorant enough to generalise like you do do not engage with me.

Parents are doing their job, but that doesn’t mean every child’s bad behavior should be tied solely to parenting. You should recognize that society also plays a huge role in shaping a child’s behavior, come to Lagos and see what’s happening, maybe you will understand where I’m coming from.
I have been to Lagos. Grew up there in fact.

Daughters who are taught good values by their parents tend not to be the ones looking for a wealthy man to fund them.

Saying that, our culture is also at fault in not generally valuing daughters, and even making it difficult for them to be employed or inherit property. But many daughters are empowering themselves however they can, even in Lagos.

Parents must do more, is my thinking.
