And an editor that does a decent job is not google docs.

It is embarassing that MS has dominated this for more than 30 years and Google, despite its infinite wealth, hasn’t made a decent office app.

Google docs is trash.

How can you keep it?

We do American better than they do. No american shithole would be safe.

If it comes down to it, the question becomes how much fuel and goods do they have in their supply chain.

Canada is: 60% of their crude oil and most of their refineries are built to only handle it, the only alternative is Venezuela, and they can’t supply the same amount. 90% of their Potash, no other country can supply the same amount. Required for modern farming. 60% of their Aluminium, no other country can meet the supply. They also lack the smelters to produce it, even if the ore can be sourced. 100% of their peat. Required for modern farming. 90% of their Vanadium. Critical to a stupid amount of industrial processes.

This is on top of the hundreds of billions Canadians spend on US goods and services each year.

If they try anything stupid, their entire system will dry up.

Oh sure, but he illegally rammed three pipelines through to the BC coast to give oil and LNG to China, which doesn’t want it.

Meanwhile he ignored the potential of a pipeline to the Maritimes, which could then ship oil and LNG to Europe. That would have revitalized the Maritimes and provided a much needed competitor to Russia.

1. It doesnt work that well.
2. If they do that then they cant trick everyone into buying new devices, thus helping recoup the untold billions dumped into LLM-based content theft.

Moreover, its not like Ukraine hasnt been pushing for localized tech stack since at least 2016-2018 ish.

Yeah, all for it.

We can thank Stephen Harper and Pierre Polievre for ignoring Europe for so long when we should have been there for you guys, helping you separate from Putin’s oil and gas.

Hopefully Carney will remedy that situation, and we can all get rid of the despotic sycophants.
