  1. Yes. I was astounded at Luth's comments, and I wasn't entirely surprised to see that he was ejected from the party in 2020. I assume that there have been plenty of other AfD members with the same stated opinions in the subsequent 5 years. Perhaps Ssnake and seahawk can go over that. In the meantime, the fact remains that the AfD is the party that practically all of East Germany voted for. Seahawk's explanation seems to be that East Germany are Nazis? I'm not fully understanding how a national Nazi party can be the East German regional party.
  2. Yes, it's a regional party. Judging from the 2024 results, it's the East Germany party. Here, https://wernerantweiler.ca/blog.php?item=2025-03-02 We have a hard right party in Canada called the People's Party. It's support base is dispersed like this, https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=2769400516683718&id=2018230791800698&set=a.2020007158289728
  3. I'd guess the Ukrainians bought a Chinese assault rifle then pretended they'd captured it near Toretsk.
  4. Whatever Trump decides to do on any given day. China has the most potential for a Canadian quick pivot. They're the one market that can pretty much take all the resources we have to export and supply us with all the stuff we can no longer get from you. There's considerable enthusiasm for the EU as well, but I wonder if the EU is really in any position to be of that must assistance.
  5. So support for the AfD is strongly divided between regions in Germany and associated with economic and political problems. A regional party. How does that square with the AfD being the German Nazi party?
  6. And well up from the opinions in 1945!
  7. I asked seahawk why, if the AfD are the Nazis, that basically all of former East Germany voted for the AfD. Are East Germans Nazis ,or is something else going on where the AfD is a regional party like our Bloc Quebecois? He never replied.
  8. On the Ukraine front it seems like Trump will fail, but it's not certain yet. On the Hamas front, Trump has given Israel a blank cheque to do whatever it wants. On the Iranian front it appears at this time that a deal is going to be signed.
  9. The United States is entitled to do whatever it wants on tariffs. Fair or unfair has nothing to do with it. Canada is entitled to stop buying from whomever it chooses, and Canada is not obliged to sell its electricity. As it stands, Canada is reducing trade with the US while continuing to supply electricity.
  10. We protect our food industry with tariffs so that a foreign country cannot prevent our access to things such as dairy.
  11. AfD support is strongest in the former East Germany, is it not? I asked Chat and it said the AdD won 41 out of 44 constituencies there. In Canada, the only province with strong support from a regional party is Quebec with the Bloc. Is that what is going on in Germany?
  12. I think the average of the tariffs across all goods was 1% or less. Canada does protect its food industries to preserve domestic production, but we'd have to be idiots to give Trump that type of leverage over us.
  13. First of presumably many Chinese live fire exercises right off Australia's east coast. PLA(N) force composition identical to Australian navy demonstration in the Taiwan Straight,
  14. Canadian oil sales to China skyrocketing, Chinese purchases of US oil tanking, https://financialpost.com/commodities/energy/oil-gas/china-us-canada-oil-trade-war-worsens Chinese crude imports from the port at the pipeline terminus near Vancouver soared to an unprecedented 7.3 million barrels in March and are on pace to exceed that figure this month, according to data from Vortexa Ltd., which tracks waterborne oil and natural-gas shipments. Meanwhile, Chinese imports of U.S. oil have collapsed to 3 million barrels a month from a peak of 29 million in June.
  15. His post count is far larger than what is shown. Some years back one of the moderators cleaned up a bunch of posts around here and I think Stuart's count dropped by 25,000 or so.
