Boycott US

Fuck the AI "boom", but this is the best legitimate use of it around, summarizing annoying videos or long documents. Here's an AI summary.

Here is a summary of the video:

• Canada, rich in energy resources, has historically been a key energy supplier to the United States [00:00].
• However, due to protectionist tariffs imposed by the U.S., Canada is now diversifying its energy exports towards European and Asian markets [00:30].
• This shift could have implications for the U.S., potentially weakening its global balance of power and energy security [00:39].
• Canada's new commodity pacts with the European Union and Asia could redirect the flow of low-cost heavy oil, natural gas, and critical minerals away from the U.S. [00:46].
• The European Union is one of the world's largest economies and Canada's second-largest trading partner, offering significant opportunities for growth [03:47].
• A comprehensive trade agreement between Canada and the EU aims to reduce Canada's dependence on the U.S. market [04:04].
• If Canada's energy exports shift to the EU and Asia, the U.S. could face disadvantages such as higher energy costs and reduced bargaining power [06:16].
• Canada is focusing on key commodities to strengthen its economy and become indispensable to U.S. interests [07:04].
• Canadian oil and gas exports support U.S. energy reserves, lower consumer costs, and aid in expanding international energy exports [08:51].
• Canada's increasing capacity to ship oil to tidewater markets allows it to support global allies like South Korea and Japan [10:32].
• Canadian natural gas can help ensure abundant domestic supplies in the U.S. and free up space for exports to allies [10:48].
• Canada is poised to become a major liquefied natural gas supplier, particularly to strategic Asian allies [11:27].
• Low-cost Canadian electricity can power various U.S. endeavors, and new projects aim to boost electricity exports while saving costs [12:03].
• The rapid growth of AI technology in the U.S. is expected to drive a sharp increase in electricity consumption, which Canada can help meet [12:56].
• Canada's strategic move to diversify its energy exports could potentially change the geopolitical balance in terms of global energy security [13:13]. Would you like to ask about another video?

Watch Trump end sanctions on Russa to buy russian oil.

True. But we're dealing with a toddler to the south. A move like this, as good as it is, is going to antagonize his annexation talk to the point where he might actually try something.

This is going to get worse before it gets better. But yes, I think we'll come out the other side a far better world without the U.S. as a superpower.

why rename it? it's a North Atlantic Treaty Organisation with or without the US

NAFO.

You say "on one hand... on the other hand" as if both things aren't good.

The American working class -- and I say this as a member of it -- needs to be hurt in order to find the motivation to depose its dictator.

Good, let the working class feel the self inflicted pain. - a frustrated American

Most of the US has no good mass transit. No car means no paycheck.

That undecided bloc should've voted then. They can make it up for it by protesting against the tariffs.

They should voted then and not wait til now to protest.

Who did this Working class vote for? Or did it vote at all?

Container ships lower earth average temperature by 0.3 °C via SO2 emissions. That's why the IMO limiting sulphur content of bunker fuel was a bad move, which could catapult us above 2 °C.

Countries have largely abandoned the climate change initiative for a while, a video by sabin explains it well

it should balance out somewhat--the u.s. exports are roughly the same as its canadian imports; unless they do something really stupid like increasing what's already historic production levels to make up for the loss of canadian imports.

Blame Trump for slapping a 10% tariff without thinking about his actions.

Canadians gotta learn from their predecessors how to handle US tyranny. Here's an example from the 1973 oil crisis:

Kissinger stated in a private state department meeting that it's “ridiculous that the civilized world is held up by 8 million savages... Can’t we overthrow one of the sheikhs just to show that we can do it?” They formed a plan to invade Abu Dhabi, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia.[60][61] Kissinger publicly threatened "countermeasures" in a Nov 21st, 1973 press conference if the embargo was not lifted, and the Saudis responded with threatening further oil cuts and to burn their oil fields if the US military invaded. After the CIA confirmed these threats, Kissinger gave up military intervention and decided that dealing with Israel's troop withdrawals and settled on diplomatic solutions to the oil embargo.
